Amount of alcohol for tincture

[whelksemengmail.com]

Planning on making a tincture... Just wondering how much of this everclear alcohol I should pour over my weed to make tincture... I was thinking of using an ounce of weed for my first attempt... I have 500ml of this high strength alcohol however I want to use as little as possible to make strong tincture... Thanks

Most use just enough to cover the herb.

For an ounce of weed I would use 360 ml/12oz and after extraction reduce to 120ml/4oz.
When consuming, start low,1-2 ml/20-40 drops and work your way up.
The above formula considers an 18% THC strain.
