Practical Alchemy, not necessarily exoteric. Practical Alchemy applies the inner Alchemy in a laboratory setting. I refine myself and my environment through purification of medicaments.
If I can find my old phone I have a wonderful text by Paracelsus on the preparation of medicines. It’s just lost in my abyss somewhere right now lol
Well, yes! Alchemists sought to recreate the processes of Nature in their flasks. :D Nature has been my greatest instructor.
Have you used fermentation in order to create your own soil inoculates as a grower? I think that would be an interesting experiment!
Fermentation and calcination are my two favorite processes, distillation is also quite a joy ! Are you getting lab glass or a stainless steel still?
Good to hear!
Awesome, hope you can find it / direct me to it!
I have been looking into fermentation used in soil applications. I will be incorporating some by-products of my kombucha operation into my next compost tea. This can be used as an organic way to manipulate PH with positive effects on the microbiology. We'll see what happens.
Most likely a small steel still. The space in my home is limited and priorities need to be set. I am really interested in fractional distillation so I do look forward to one day having a kick-ass glass setup. Any advice on cheap start up kits or good websites for glass?
