Advanced Tincture Making: Double Extracted Lion's Mane Mushroom

[@mainetiques]

FINALLY !!!!!!!! After spending years watching videos that left me scratching my head about ratios and why they are important. Dosage amounts All my questions answered in one video . Excellent work you did . I had one unanswered question and you answered it in the comment section. I am a forager here in Maine, I prefer drying prior to extracting. You had an excellent answer on that topic as well. I am not only impressed by your knowledge . It is refreshing the straight forward approach you take in simple explanations rather than including "filler" information. Thank You Subscribed with only one thumbs up Lol

[@HerbNerdSchool]

I just want you to know that even though I never commented on this, I come back to it time and time again for motivation! Thanks for your kind words 🥰

[@titaniumquarrion9838]

Why 30% or is that arbitrary? Off the shelf tinctures seem to sit anywhere between 20 and 30%. Is there a specific ratio of elements extracted using the water vs alcohol to achieve best medicinal effect? If not, it seems to be generally 50/50. In which case the maths whole not overly complicated seem to be unnecessary. Eg if my alcohol is anywhere between 60-70% I just go 1:1 and end up with a 30-35% tincture. Equally for those using lower potency alcohol say 47% OP rum on dried mushroom (so no excess water dilution) then going 1:1 will result in 20-23% tincture. I assume at this stage Alcohol percentages are more to do when the taste? Any thoughts on that are appreciated. If using plain alcohol I also add pure vanilla essence to the water before cooling while still just warm.

If it is dried or powdered make sure it has both the mycelium and fruiting bodies but all the figuring she does is removed if you use powdered you can stick to the 1:5 method but you will still double pull

[@ChristyLynnMiles]

I realize this is an older video. I have just now discovered it. I am new to herbalism this year. I’ve been hunting and preserving wild mushrooms for years now. Specifically lions mane. I have sense broadened that to include more variety and plant matter. Thus the reason for becoming an herbalist. I’m not any where near the nerdy wife you are but I 100% am beginning my journey to be. I love it but am so rusty on the math. Ha! My point I actually want to make is that I truly appreciate how you present the video. You are a FANTASTIC teacher. I haven’t seen anyone explain it the way you have so that beginners like me can understand and grow. It’s exactly what I needed. Thank you!

what is the dosage on this thank you for the video, learned a ton .

[@HerbNerdSchool]

2-3 ml 3x a day! Thanks for your comment 😊

[@miheadhurts]

Thank you for posting. If you put your mushroom and water mix in a clean cotton bag you can tie it up and hang it over a bowl and leave it overnight. The water part will be left in the bowl in the morning. You dont need any mathematical equations to do this. Just keep adding the mushroom water mix to the alcohol mix until you read 30% with your hydrometer.

[@carmenwishlow1490]

So what if you do not have a press? Did I miss something? not sure how we could do this without a press? Can you help me understand how we could do this?

[@JoeyGothelf]

I foraged some Lions Mane last year, chopped it and put it in a pint of grain alcohol. It has been sitting in the alcohol since November of 2022. I did it rough and just filled the jar without weighing or measuring. How should I proceed to figure out the correct volumes for decoction and mixing? THANKS!

[@theruralgardener123]

I have watched this about 100 times, and am totally inspired! I own a small mushroom company in Texas and grow a boatload of Lion's Mane for market. I dehydrate any that I don't sell [which is rare] and have been waiting to find a easily explained way to move toward tincture making. I bought a press on-line and it totally made the job of pressing so much easier. I reserved the menstruum and simmered it down for about 4 hours. I tried to press, but never got any clear liquid as you did.{any idea why?} So, I used fresh LM to make the decoction. I thought that by doing this, I'd probably get a stronger water extraction. Thank you for the math lesson. Very grateful for you.

[@joesucher]

Excellent content. Thanks a lot. How long do you simmer the LM in hot water (at a max of 175 F degrees right)? Do you have to stir the preparation during the 4 hours?

Hi..thank you for the video. I have a question. How did you decide the volume of water for the decoction for dissolving the pressed mushroom?

Is it possible to use a 40% (80 proof ) alcohol? Also how will you modified the quantities if using dry mushrooms?

[@HerbNerdSchool]

Dry mushroom is 1:5 although the more you reduce the number in the right, the more concentrated your medicine is. You’d definitely want to stick with high proof alcohol for fresh mushrooms but could many get away with 80 proof for dry…just means you’ll not be able to add in as much shroom decoction in step 2.

[@staticGenerator4You]

How do you determine a good daily dosage of the final product? Does the final mixture of alcohol and water extract offer the optimal amounts of both methods? What about keeping both extracts separate, then adding alcohol to just the water based as a preservative so you can dose it individually?

2-3 mls two times a day. Yes, you could separate out the two, but I made this video to explain the process for making a double extract tincture.

​@@HerbNerdSchool hi thx, but if I dont use alcohol, I miss the alcohol dissolving components in the mushroom? If I just simmer, they wont be in the solution? Is glycerol also possible to use as a "alcohol"? And do I get additional compounds if I put a cold water extraction in between?

[@HerbNerdSchool]

@@Authority1988 correct, only alcohol can draw out the neuroprotective constituents so you won’t get those from a tea. Yes, glycerin is an alcohol and pulls the same constituents as ethanol but it isn’t as strong of a solvent. This is why herbalists will often do a solvent exchange, carefully cooking off the alcohol and replacing with glycerin.
