I have looked through the archives and could not seem to find my answers.
1. What exactly does tincturing do ?
2. I know that alchol (drinking grade) is used to do this. Does the alchol evaporate during this process.
3. Is there a link or could you explain the ingredients along with the steps of the process?
Thanks ahead

the alcohol absorbs the scent of the tincturing material and expands it so you have more to use.
Advance confidently in the direction of your dreams and endeavor to live the life you have imagined.

One covers the product to be tinctured such as castor, asafoedita, catnip leaves as examples with vodka, everclear or propylene glycol. The odor is extracted out of the product by the alcolhol or glycol and then the strong smelling liquid is used in lure formulation. When tincturing I personally use 100 proof vodka, cover the product with plenty of vodka and place the bottle in a place where I can give it a good shaking everytime I pass for a couple of months or so. The longer the tincture sits, the more odor it will extract from the product. I do this with weasel musks, drop the musk pods into the alcolhol and shake many times over a few months. This stretches out a the weasel musk which is generally in limited supply. Ace

I also use Everclear on some things, but I use 100 proof vodka on more than I do with Everclear. Everclear is legal to buy here and it runs around $31.90 a half gallon.
When tincturing some materials, the Everclear tends to have more odor than I like, and the vodka seems to have less. On some materials, the Everclear does a better job though and odor isn't much of a problem.
I don't allow the alcohol to evaporate. I seal it until ready for use.

Everclear is illegal to buy in Micghigan, so I have never had an opportunuity to try it. Ace We used to have big trash can parties in Michigan when I live there and we seemed to always have plenty of everclear.That was years like the early 80s must have made it illegal after that.
