Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 DH purchased an EO Distillation unit for me for our anniversary, sweet hubby huh! It only has a 2 liter biomass flask. I know that the oils will not come through on distillation, or not very much anyway, but will the Gardenia aroma come through if I make the hydrosol? Would love to do it for lotions, rather than tincture in alcohol. I have a LOADED Gardenia this year! Thanks for any help. Anita Quote
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I don't see why you couldn't distill it and at least get some floral water. That is what I do with my roses, lavender, and lots of other flowers. I may not get a significant amount of EO, but I get some lovely floral waters! Cindy Quote
