Art of Essential Oil Making There are many ways to process out the aromatic compounds of plants we call essential oils. The most common being steam distillation followed by alcohol absolutes‚ cold pressing‚ and carbon dioxide extractions. Before these methods came about due to technology people would often do their own oil or fat based extractions at home called oil macerations. An oil maceration is the product of plant matter being soaked in a carrier oil. A carrier oil is an unsaturated

of Essential Oils Following are the methods used to extract essential oils from aromatic and medicinal plants: • Hydrodistillation: For the isolation of essential oils by Hydrodistillation‚ the aromatic plant substances are packed in a still and a sufficient amount of water is added and brought near to a boil. Due to the influential effect of hot water and steam‚ the essential oil is unbounded from the oil glands present in the plant tissue. The combination of water vapors and oil is condensed
