ESTRATTORE EXTRACTOR PLUS 12 - 20 LITERS - ITALIAN MADE - 24 MONTH WARRANTY

The steam distillation is a technique that allows to extract essential oils from herbs (fresh or dried) by their transport by water vapor. The passage of the steam, generated by boiling water, through the plant material, makes the cell walls more permeable, up to breakage and leakage of the essential oil, which is condensed in a serpentine cooled by a recirculating water , separating into essential oil and floral water. The essential oil settles on the surface as it has lower density.
