How do you filter morning glory seeds with the water and alcohol (gin, voka, etc) method?

I would like to know how to filter morning glory seeds with just water and alcohol to remove the undesirable side-effects? I cant find a web site that explains it in enough detail.

I tried erowid and they are not clear at all about how to do it. Very poor directions. They explain the petroleum ether method very clear, but rush through the water method.


Answers:

Sounds like you are preparing a tincture.
1 ounce seeds to 16 ounces fluid. With that said, 25% of the fluid is going to be distilled water, which in this measurement would be appx. 4 ounces. The other 12 ounces fluid is vodka or everclear. These alcohols need to contain 95% alcohol for you to get the correct distilation properties.
Now in a glass jar, place the seeds (crush them), alcohol and water. Shake daily for 2 weeks. Then strain the fluid out with cheesecloth cupped over a glass jar.
You should bottle this tincture in a dark glass bottle and the self life is inebidable (no expiration).
For more information on making tinctures, purchase "The Complete Guide to Herbal Medicines" from borders for $7. In the front it gives complete instructions.
PS: You should never try tinctures on herbs without through research or practice with herbs that you know their constitutions or under a herbalist. If you are practicing to be an herbalist---YOU NEED THIS BOOK! Don't make anything without it. It will tell you want herbs can be used in this form and side effects and what drugs should not be used with certain herbs and ect.
Use caution, do your research, then act.
