Infuzium Tincture Calculator

Choose your herb, fresh or dried form, menstruum amount, and tincture ratio. The calculator gives you the matching herb weight plus a Gathered Remedies Infuzium starting setting.

Simple batch calculation.

This tool calculates herb weight : menstruum volume. Alcohol strength is herb-specific, so the calculator does not automatically claim one proof is correct for every plant.

  5. 5

Alcohol safety: Alcohol produces flammable vapor when heated. Only use alcohol in the Infuzium if the manufacturer's instructions for your exact machine explicitly allow that use. Keep away from flames, sparks, and other ignition sources, and use appropriate ventilation.
About the settings: The time and temperature shown here are Gathered Remedies starting guidelines organized by plant part. They are not a substitute for an herb-specific extraction formula, and they do not determine the ideal alcohol percentage for a particular herb.

The calculator defaults to 1:5 for dried herbs and 1:2 for fresh herbs. Those are common starting ratios, not universal rules. If your herb-specific formula specifies another ratio, select that ratio instead.
