Once you've decided whether to dry your plant material or not, continue onto the next step of how to make essential oils at home. Add filtered or distilled water to your tank, following the manufacturers directions. When making these products, make sure that the water is close to, but not actually touching the plant material, which will be housed in a false bottom.

The next step in how to make essential oils at home is to pack your plant material tightly into the false bottom of the still. Then close the still and boil the water. Most plants begin to excrete their essential oils at 100 degrees Celsius, or 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

Different plants take different amounts of time for the full extraction process to work, so it's important to research this to ensure that the essential oil you obtain is of the highest quality.

Once your oil has been extracted, place into a dark glass storage container as soon as possible. If you require more of the product, simply repeat the process. It is possible to use he same container for storage.

The steps required to make essential oils at home are not complicated, they just require some knowledge, and the correct materials. However, it's well worth going to the trouble to make essential oils at home, as you can control the quality, and ensure that the oils are completely natural.
