Tincture & Extract Yield Calculator
Estimate the dried weight of your harvest, the menstruum (solvent) you’ll need for a glycerite or an alcohol tincture, and the likely shelf life of the finished extract.

A note on the numbers. Fresh plant material is roughly 70–90% water, so the dried-weight figure here is an estimate based on the plant part you select — it is not a substitute for actually weighing your material once dried. Glycerites are mixed at 75% glycerin to 25% water; alcohol tinctures here assume a 1:5 dried-herb-to-menstruum ratio at 40% ABV. Always finish to taste and to your own preparation standards.
