Nice job!!
I’ve been trying to make oils for the longest time with no success.
TPE ? Are you french?
Anyway how many points did you get for this manipulation?
hhhhhhhhhh
yes i am french and we actually manage to get an 18/20 =D
well done, very interesting
haha lavender molecules…. but very cool project.
OH BTW, thanks for posting this. Now I know how to extract lavender oil.
Thanks 4 the informaion. Really good
Wow this was very informative. We owe alot to scientific processes, and it’s always good to have insight into how products we use might be made.
Such a little amount but SOOOO strong! you could put all of that in a batch of soap and it would probably be to much!
cool!!
That is awesome! I love essential oils, but it looks terribly complicated and not at all what one could do in their own kitchen. Maybe I’ll just try making floral water or something. Maybe steam rose petals in a steamer like I would vegetables where the water would be low enough not to touch them? I’d probably kill the therapeutic value, but I imagine I’d still get the fragrance. I just don’t want to use those synthetic animal-testing (torturing) air fresheners. I love going natural all the way!
Great video. Good info. The only thing i did not like was the music as it competed too hard with the content. Too loud for one thing.
Thanks for this. Two questions:
1) Did the oil smell nice? Was it the same as store bought stuff?
2) Did you just use leaves or the flowers or both?
Thanks
That was very good!!! For other occassion is good you use protection glasses or goggles…
sink mounted water condensers are such a waste of water, they piss me off
I would not put a vigreux column, it is not a real distilation, it is an extraction, so you don’t need a reflux, just a nice liebig condenser, well cooled.
Great video but the music was awful, too loud and really not needed for this type of video.
You can make a tincture using everclear or ethyl alcohol. Just use a jar with a lid, and stuff with your favorite flower petals like roses, pour the everclear or ethyl alcohol over them till it covers them, let sit in the jar for 24 to 48 hours or more. You will then strain the mixture through a coffee filter, into another jar or bottle.
That sounds good, I’ll try that. I don’t know what I said wrong that 4 people would have a problem with my comment. It’s not like I was hating on anyone, I was just brainstorming what might be easier for a college student living in a 1 bedroom apartment. Kudos to whoever CAN do it this way. Thanks for the tip, Dawn.
I thought it was easier to infuse lavender into a carrier oil like grapeseed, olive, or even mineral. I use candle or canned heat as the source of heat.
Great job on video. Music was annoying though. You convinced me it is easier to purchase at the store!
