Distillation of essential oil and hydrolate | A magical process
Dela med en vän ♡
Here I show pictures from the course in distillation of essential oils and hydrolates. I have been living in Croatia for some time. Imagine my surprise when I realized that the workshop I had scouted out many years ago was now only a couple of hours away.
The Malle-Schmikl couple have created a beautiful idyll in Klagenfurt, Austria and built their own copper distillers. Long-term solid experience and a lot of commitment.
I have long had a fascination with the distillation process. Imagine you have a plant. The plant contains essential oils. Using the element of heat/steam, you can extract these essential oils. The steam encapsulates and transports the delicate oils into the atmosphere. If you are quick and skilled, you can use the element of cooling to cool the vapors down so that they turn back into solid matter. What materializes is essential oil and hydrolate.
Absolutely fantastic and absolutely wonderfully magical! Don't you think so too?
Sara Bonade George will soon be writing more about hydrolates, so stay tuned here at Örtfabriken. And let me know if you are interested in buying your own distillation apparatus!
