DISTILLING CONIFERS: HYDROLATS & ESSENTIAL OILS FROM PINE, SPRUCE, AND JUNIPER
Some people hesitate to distill conifers because of persistent myths: that you’ll clog your alembic, that it’s extremely difficult to clean afterward, or that the hydrolat won’t smell pleasant.
I’m creating this course so distillation enthusiasts can move from fear to full confidence in their conifer distillation, producing aromatic hydrolats and essential oils without any trouble with their alembic still.
You’ll get access to:

Step‑by‑step distillation videos

Three in‑depth conifer monographs
-
Practical tips on different plant preparation techniques
- Insights into how these techniques – and the season you distill in – can shape your final hydrolat and essential oil.
