Guest guest Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Jim- Resins usually need quite high alcohol percentages to extract whereas polysaccharides need around 25% or they will clump, and other compounds each have their preferred extraction range. So I would extract mo yao or ru xiang at full strength and ling zhi at 25%. Minerals don't extract well in alcohol so I might boil mu li in water in greater than normal concentrations and use it to dilute other formula ingredients (but manual shaking of the resultant tincture would be required as the minerals would settle).

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Any thoughts on spigeric(sp?) processing to extract the minerals? This is the process of burning the left-over mark and blending the ash with the strained tincture... bob --- Karen Vaughan <creationsgarden1 wrote: > Jim- > > Resins usually need quite high alcohol percentages > to extract whereas polysaccharides need around > 25% or they will clump, and other compounds each > have their preferred extraction range.
