I was wondered about using alcohol too because I don’t drink but upon further research, people typically consume more naturally occurring alcohol in fermented foods and ripe bananas then in a tincture that you will consume.

@SpiraeaHerbs 2 месяца назад

This is a beautiful point and it will be something that I remember when I have students/clients who have similar questions about the alcohol consumption. Its such a small amount! You are correct. But I also think there is something to be said about intention behind the alcohol consumption. With tinctures, the intention is to help support and heal your body which I feel goes a long way towards your body accepting it. If that makes sense.

Hi, I’ve just subscribed. Would you be able to build a cheap bench and cut a hole in it and get a cheap sink to use to rinse your herbs with a hose and whatever is rinsed off can go straight into the ground.

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

That is exactly one of my plans for a space out back! Right by where we catch our rain water.

@echandler673 3 месяца назад

Can you speed up the process by putting the jars in an instant pot with the keep warm function for 24 hours instead of letting it steep for 6-8 weeks?

@SpiraeaHerbs 3 месяца назад

I've personally never done it. And honestly, I don't think so. I some people use machines that are designed for oil infusions, but I tend to let time to its work. But its worth exploring further with people who have experience with it.

@landofevolution9757 Год назад

A look alike young chicory. They make a dandelion digger metal with two prongs at end like a hand shovel works good.

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

Thanks for the tip!!

@pollkat Год назад

I started making tinctures last year and just love it. However, its hard to find information on dosages. This year I made some nettle/dandelion tincture and some whole dandelion tinctures. I want to take them daily for maintenance but can't find how much to take on a daily basis. I'm also hoping to make more tinctures as the summer goes on, such as Nasturtium and others. I'm hoping I can find dosages for each and exactly what all they will do for my body. I enjoyed your video. Thanks

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

I feel your frustration and trust me I get it! The only way I can navigate the strict Health Canada Regulations is through teaching on my online platform. Because they are students I can share that information. It's possible the regulations in the US aren't a strict so maybe finding an American herbalist?? Do you have any good herbal books by chance? They often site dosing in those.

@sueanngroff3116 Год назад

Can you use apple cider vinegar instead of alcohol??

@luzm1039 Год назад

Good question. Wondering the same. Want to make this for my mom and takes lots of medication so not sure alcohol would be good for her

@rickjames7576 Год назад

ACV is what I've always used. Works great Imo

@luzm1039 Год назад

@@rickjames7576 great, thank you

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

HI there! My apologies for not seeing this comment earlier. You can use ACV, but it is not my preference. It does not pull out the same range of chemical constituents as alcohol and the shelf life isn't as good. That being said, if you are abstaining from alcohol, it is a great option!

@tkusnrk6402 Год назад

How long can you leave the dandelion roots in there for a vodka tincture? I didn't realize straining the tincture was a thing and mine has been sitting all together for 2 years, the roots are kind of brown but I have that layer of inulin in the bottom.

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

Your tincture is perfectly fine. I honestly don't press mine until I need them. I have some tinctures that are over 6 years old. Once I press them, I like to use them up within a year. The inulin on the bottom is natural and expected. :)

@ronalddaub9740 Год назад

I will have to learn about what pressing is .

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

@@ronalddaub9740 Just a fancy way of saying straining the herbs (i.e. mark) out of the alcohol. But we say press, because you want squeeze/press out as much of that beautiful medicine as possible. You might find this video helpful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SJvFgRHpBH0.html

@slay.everyday 2 месяца назад

When you get the separation like that and you go to press it out is it ok to leave all that or do you have to separate the stuff that settled to the bottom

@SpiraeaHerbs 2 месяца назад

No you want that in your end product! I shake well and press. And then I make sure that I shake the bottle well before I use it in tincture formulations. Hope that helps!

@catherinemurphy8909 Год назад

How do you take/press this? 🤦‍♀️sorry I’m new to this and you’re the first person I’ve seen on this subject and I’m so happy watching your videos. Love them. But I don’t know how you use “Tincture”🤦‍♀️

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

I wish I could give you doses but Health Canada has rules 😝 but for pressing you can totally use a potato ricer. Great little tincture press!

@kaosmodel7168 Год назад

When you strain - which part do you keep? Not trying to seem silly here but when its strained is the liquid vodka and mixture that you keep as the tincture

@rickjames7576 Год назад

Yes, the liquid.

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

Hi Kels! My apologies for not responding sooner. I get so many comments on my channel, it's hard to keep up at times. Yes, you want to keep the alcohol that is now infused with all of the medicinal properties of the herbs. Happy medicine making!

@honnorjustice 4 месяца назад

To make tinctures can apple cider vinegar be used instead of alcohol?

@SpiraeaHerbs 4 месяца назад

Technically you would then be making an acidic, but totally! There are downsides with vinegar (they do not exact as broad a range and they are really only good for about a year), but they are good alternative for people who are abstaining from alcohol.

@jusjukinallen8845 Год назад

How do you recommend to drink this? My mom has been making some different tinctures but I put some juice in a small glass and add some to that.

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

I cannot recommend doses due to Health Canada regulations, but I normally suggest that people take it watered down slightly to help with astringency and taste :)

@markdlt2989 10 месяцев назад

What was the ratio about a cup of dandelion to two cups of alcohol? Does alcohol proof really matter? Thank you and many blessings.

@SpiraeaHerbs 10 месяцев назад

86 grams of fresh root and then fill the jar up with alcohol (this is for a 500ml jar). As for the proof, that depends on who you ask, but I use a universal menstruum of 30% alcohol and 10% vegetable grade glycerin and it works for most herbs. Hope that helps!

@DredgeUp Год назад

Hello & thank you for your lucid presentation of your work, regarding the use of amber packer bottles are they available with non-plastic lids? I ask as I wonder if especially due to the alcohol content there would be some leeching into the tincture?

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

I have never found any that are not plastic unfortunatley. And metal lids corrode destrying tinctures as well. I guess it's trying to figure out which is the lesser of two evils ~ plastic lids or parchment paper as a barrier for metal lids.

@DredgeUp Год назад

@debrawinckler2605 7 месяцев назад

I’m needing to know if after I’ve drained my denture if I can reuse the roots?

@SpiraeaHerbs 7 месяцев назад

That is usually personal preference, but I typically don't. You could perhaps use them in a pot of bone broth or tea, but I would not use them to make another tincture.

@sarahdocherty Год назад

Oops, I left mine root and leaf mix for 1 month. Only just coming across your channel now. The mix has been strained and put in the fridge. Could I add another root to this tincture, or should I through out what I have and start again? Thank you

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

You could reuse the tincture liquid to create a new one. That way you don't have to waste the alcohol.

Due to Health Canada regulations and rules put forth by Meta platforms (the folks who own YT), I technically can't tell you how to use it unless you are a student of mine or a client. I know this is frustrating, but I also know there are soooo many resources online for the medicinal benefits of dandelion. Hopefully you are able to navigate the free resources out there to help you. Best of luck!

Unfortunately Canadian health regulations are pretty clear and I am not allowed to provide suggested use without a clinical consultation. A frustrating situation, but it is what it is. I can speak very generally though and state that Dandelion is an excellent detoxifying plant that supports the kidneys, liver etc.

I can teach you to make them, but you will have to do a bit of internet searching or get a few good books if you want more specific details. It's frustrating for me too, but I can't risk getting deplatformed.

@williambraun8510 11 месяцев назад

Do you have to use glycerine? What ratio of dandelion to alcohol?

@SpiraeaHerbs 11 месяцев назад

Do not have to use glycerin at all, but it does do a better job at pulling out fat soluble constituents. As I mentioned in the video, all the ratios you need are in the free tincture guide. There is a link in the description of the video so you should definitely snag that!

@williambraun8510 11 месяцев назад

@SpiraeaHerbs after you add alcohol can you put the mix in the fridge to prevent any potential for spoiling? I plan on washing jars with only soap and water, and I'm not sure that's enough to prevent any bacteria growth on the counter.

@watchmansduty Год назад

will apple cider vinager work?

@SpiraeaHerbs Год назад

Totally will, but those are not technically tinctures... they are acidics. They do not have the same shelf life and do not pull out the same range of chemical constituents, however are an excellent option for those who are staying away from alcohol.
