Demystifying the Art of Distilling Hydrosols
 
Explore the alchemical process of distillation! The art and science of distilling is a process that relies on the four elements of earth, air, water, and fire; and embodies the very meaning of aromatic alchemy.
 
Join us as we pack Cindy’s Alembic copper and Shana’s glass stills! We will take a plant walk and do some ethical harvesting and while they stills are running we will discuss the foundations of distilling and dive into hydrosols and their many uses. Resources will be shared and there will be opportunity to purchase a copper still. Come meander with the aromatic molecules and explore a whole new experience of plant extraction. Go home in a state of bliss and with a sample of the distilled hydrolate.
 
In this hands on class you will learn:
*The anatomy and physiology of the copper still
*Everything needed to run a still
*Safety tips and tricks
*How to prepare the equipment and process the plants to be distilled
*Distilling for hydrosols and the fraction process
*Two products from the still and their molecular differences

Plant Walk at Lake Calavera in Carlsbad
Let’s take a walk around the lake and check out our local ecology. We are surrounded by food and medicinal plants wherever we go. We will use our senses to experience some of our common food and medicines while enjoying a walk in nature and the cool breezes on our faces. Initially, plants tend to create a greenscape, making it difficult to tell them apart. With a bit of focus, key players will start becoming obvious and you realize you know more than you thought!

Saturday October 14th,

10 am - 12 pm

Lake Calavera, Carlsbad
We will meet at the trailhead on Tamarack, park on the street.
