Below this post I posted info on how to craft essential oils and tidbits on related material such as Infusions, Decoctions etc. I posted the easiest methods at the top of the link list and the harder methods to make essential plus further down the link list which is geared more towards making professional aroma therapy grade essential oils which requires professional equipment and sometimes a expensive start up costs… Which is why I think i will stick with the simple stuff at the top of the link list, but its' is cool to know how it is done for the high grade stuff any way... Any ways for many of you I am sure I have posted great info for you to use and for others I hope you may also have some experience with this stuff and you can share the easiest methods you have tried and have had success with in making essential oils for the newbie, intermediate and even advanced and or maybe how you have designed any of your own distillers cheaply etc. If anyone knows of any references of books on this subject please share. Also If you know of great infusions etc share your methods and experiences and any great references sites etc..

I'd just wanted to mentioned that this link , http://www.rewild.info/fieldguide/index.php?title=How_to_make_essential_oils, (http://www.rewild.info/fieldguide/index.php?title=How_to_make_essential_oils)Says "how to make essential oils", but that process is an oil based tincture and not an essential oil.
I just wanted to mention it because it could cause confusion with its inaccuracy.

yeah you are right I probably should have made that clear. I added it because it was related to plant extracts and extracting stuff from plants which I think some of the basic concepts might apply I think
