Herbal Percolation Kit: Pre-Order Only
We are so excited about our newest addition to the herbal learning boxes. With the percolation cone, you will be able to extract herbal tinctures in 24-48 hours. Perfect for those times you need a tincture and you need it fast.
Created by the pharmaceutical industry as a way to extract herbal preparations. Many herbalists still use the percolation cone and feel the resulting tinctures are stronger than those produced through slow maceration, but we'll let you be the judge of that. We just love the convenience of being able to produce an extract so quickly.
While we know that you can make a DIY percolation cone from a water or wine bottle, ours are made from a much thicker glass, the edges are sanded for safety and it's designed to hold 100 grams of powdered herbs and 500 ml of alcohol- the perfect 1:5 ratio for most tinctures. Our food grade valve makes it easy to complete the maceration phase and then adjust the rate of percolation. The best part is it washes easily and stores in your apothecary until needed.
As a sustainability minded company, we re-purpose heavy, thick-walled glass** bottles. Because of this, we have a limited number of these boxes available.

* Optional dried herbs can be purchased along with the box if needed. Use the selection above to add 100 grams each of selected herbs.
You just supply a few kitchen supplies like: a 1/2 gallon canning jar (show but not included in the kit) or similar base to catch your percolated tincture, a grinder to powder herbs (a coffee grinder works well), alcohol of your choice, coffee filter, cotton balls, and distilled water if needed.
** Due to availability, bottle styles may vary slightly from the one shown.
