How are the Herbalgem preparations made?
The mother tinctures are made with dry plants and are now considered as medicines, therefore subject to the pharmaceutical monopoly. The quantity of plant used is 100 grams of dry plant per kg of finished product = ratio 1/1 (= as many plants equivalent to the fresh weight as alcohol at 80°) (less when it is about seeds or flowers alone)
The alcoholatures are made in a similar way, but with fresh plants. The quantity of plant is on average equal to the weight of alcohol, i.e. 500 grs per kg of finished product (ratio 1/1)
The maceration is carried out in organic wheat alcohol at 96° or 80°, during 1 week; then one reduces to 40° /volume by adding distilled water, and the maceration continues during at least 3 weeks. This is done in glass bottles, simply filtered with organic cotton, and stored in tinted glass bottles.
