Hi Doc! Thank you for the very informative videos you are sharing with us! I have some question to ask you. Is it okay to incorporate (edible?) the eucalyptus essential oil to a certain base like candy or gummy?
I sterilize mason jars in my oven. is that not good enough for hydrosol? I just put the mason jars in dry. Then I preheat my oven to 250 F. Once it's preheated then I just shut the oven off. Is that an okay way to bottle a bunch of hydrosol at once?
Within a sanitized bottle hydrosol can be stored in room temperature. No direct sunlight and no big temperature fluctuations can save hydrosol for long time.
Very informative thank you

How do you store the hydrosol? In the fridge?
Within a sanitized bottle hydrosol can be stored in room temperature. No direct sunlight and no big temperature fluctuations can save hydrosol for long time.
I prefer to use heat, as I do not want my equipment or bottle to be contaminated by chemicals.
Have you heard of hydrogen peroxide for sterilization?
Peroxide is not as strong as chlorine or bromine for sanitizing.
