Herbal Preparations & the Home Apothecary (PDF book)
How Preparations Are Made, from the Chemistry Up
Most herbal books hand you recipes. This one teaches how herbal preparations are actually made — with water, alcohol, vinegar, oil, wax and sugar — from the chemistry up, so you can make a preparation nobody ever showed you.
You will learn why like dissolves like, why some plants want cold water instead of a hot pot, how to turn the bottle on your shelf into the exact strength a formula calls for, and how to keep oils and honey preparations safe. Every chapter gives the reasoning, the worked arithmetic and the written record, so each batch can be repeated, compared and improved.
This book does not tell you what to take. It teaches you to make a preparation to a stated strength, accurately and repeatably; the results are yours to observe. Every number in it is traced to a published source.
