Description
Makko Powder (Machilus thunbergii) - 1/2 lb (227 grams) High grade Makko powder for incense making. 100% pure, finely ground. Makko acts as a binder of other ingredients when making incense cones or extruded sticks. It also promotes smooth, even combustion. It imparts very little of its own scent besides a mild, unobtrusive woody aroma. Suggested use: Use approximately 1 part Makko for every 5 parts of fine wood powder (2 grams Makko, 10 grams aromatic wood/herbs). Some types of wood, coarsely ground materials & extruded sticks may require a larger amount of Makko. Recipes containing finely powdered resin may require less Makko as the resin can act as a binding ingredient, especially if it contains water soluble gum (Frankincense is about 30% water soluble) or is in a semi-liquid state (Labdanum, Styrax). If you find that your dough is too crumbly or that your cones/sticks are too fragile, that is a sign you need more binder. This Makko powder is sourced from Japan where it is called "Tabu no ki." Ships in 1-3 days with USPS - We ship the next day whenever possible. Makko Powder | 1/2 lb High Grade Bulk Incense Powder, Machilus Thunbergii, Tabu No Ki, Binder
