5A size 00 capsule holds approximately 500-700mg of powdered herb.
6Standard dosing varies by herb — typically 1-3 capsules, 2-3 times daily with food.
Tips
• A capsule filling machine makes the process much faster and more consistent.
• Pre-powdered herbs from reputable suppliers save significant effort.
• Store finished capsules in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
Capsules bypass taste, which can be important — bitter taste stimulates digestion. For digestive herbs, teas or tinctures may be more effective. Always follow recommended dosing.
Store in airtight containers away from moisture. Use within 6-12 months for best potency.

Alcohol TinctureModerate · 4-6 weeks (passive)
Equipment
Glass mason jar with lid, High-proof alcohol (80-100 proof vodka), Measuring cup, Cheesecloth or fine strainer, Dark glass dropper bottles, Labels
Instructions
1Fill a clean mason jar 1/3 to 1/2 full with dried herb (or 2/3 full with fresh herb).
2Pour 80-proof (40%) vodka over the herbs until the jar is full, covering herbs by at least 2 inches.
3Seal tightly and label with the herb name, alcohol type, and date.
4Store in a cool, dark place for 4-6 weeks. Shake the jar gently every day or two.
5After 4-6 weeks, strain through cheesecloth into a clean bowl, squeezing out all liquid.
6Pour the finished tincture into dark glass dropper bottles. Label with herb, date, and menstruum.
7Standard adult dose is typically 30-60 drops (1-2 dropperfuls) in a small amount of water, 2-3 times daily.
Tips
• Use at least 80-proof (40%) alcohol — this extracts both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble compounds.
• For resins and tough roots, use 100-proof (50%) or higher.
• Fresh plant tinctures use a higher ratio of alcohol to prevent spoilage from plant moisture.
Tinctures are concentrated — follow dosing guidelines carefully. Not suitable for those avoiding alcohol (use glycerites instead). Some herbs are only safe as tinctures in very small doses.
Alcohol tinctures last 3-5 years or more when stored properly in dark glass away from heat and light.
