Use this as your quick kitchen brief before heat, timers, and cleanup start competing for attention.

Before You Start

  • Clear counter space and label a finished-storage container before you start.
  • Measure 500g of Alcohol and confirm your target yield.
  • Set out a scale, strainer setup, and a written potency label for the final batch.
  • Sanitize jars and dropper bottles before combining with alcohol or glycerin.
  • Choose whether you are using the quick-wash method or a longer dark-cabinet extraction.

Time Blocks

  • Prep window: 20 min
  • Infusion / extraction window: 2-4 weeks
  • Total active project time: 2-4 weeks
  • Before starting, read the full method once and confirm storage space is ready.

Ingredients

1x
  • 500ml high-proof alcohol (Everclear or similar, 60%+ ABV)
  • Source material (amount calculated by BatchCraft)
  • Mason jar with tight-fitting lid
  • Cheesecloth and coffee filter
  • Dark dropper bottles for storage

How to Make It

  1. 1Decarboxylate: Preheat oven to 115°C / 240°F. Break source material into small pieces, spread on parchment, bake 35-40 minutes.
  2. 2Combine: Place decarbed material in a mason jar. Pour alcohol over it until fully submerged.
  3. 3Extract: Seal jar tightly. Store in a cool, dark place for 2-4 weeks, shaking vigorously once daily.
  4. 4Strain: Filter through cheesecloth first, then through a coffee filter for clarity. Squeeze gently.
  5. 5Bottle: Transfer to dark dropper bottles. Label with potency per dropper, date, and batch info.

Pro Tips

  • Higher proof alcohol extracts more efficiently — aim for 60%+ ABV (120+ proof).
  • The freezer quick-wash method (3-5 min shake) works but yields less than the traditional 2-4 week soak.
  • Store finished tincture away from light and heat — a dark cupboard extends shelf life to 1-2 years.

Serving Ideas

Place under the tongue for fastest absorption, add to tea or juice, or use in cocktail recipes. Start with half a dose if uncertain.

Substitutions

No Double boiler? Use Slow cooker on low

Set to low/warm for 2-4 hours, stir occasionally

No Double boiler? Use Mason jar in simmering water

Finger-tight lid, simmer for 2-3 hours

No Cheesecloth? Use French press

Pour infusion into French press and plunge to strain

No Cheesecloth? Use Fine mesh strainer + coffee filter

Slower but effective

Carrier swap guidance

Switch alcohol to glycerin

Flavor: Sweeter and softer with much less harshness.

Potency handling: Usually weaker extraction and slower uptake than high-proof alcohol.

Texture: Thicker liquid with easier direct use but lower strength ceiling.

Useful for alcohol-free tinctures if you accept lower extraction efficiency.
