Hello and welcome to Old Ways Gardening and Prepping. 🍀 Would like to welcome you out to the shed of many names on this cold night to finish making the turkey tail double decocted tincture. It is an amazing tincture that is well-rounded and brings together both the water soluble as well as the alcohol soluble medicinal benefits in to one tincture.
Below is the link on how I made the turkey tail tincture.
• Making Turkey Tail Tin...
Turkey Tail Mushrooms are packed with antioxidants that work at enhancing the T helper cells in the body to boost the immune system and is widely used in Asian medicine to help treat cancer patients. They help to support digestion and gut health as well. Their active agents have been used for centuries to protect and make your liver healthier and to work better. They also have potent anti-microbial and anti-viral properties. Turkey tail mushrooms have phenols and flavonoids, among the most potent forms of antioxidants. One study revealed there are over 35 different phenolic compounds alone in turkey tail mushrooms. A study that took 61 people that had HPV showed that most of the participants that were treated with turkey tail mushrooms (88% of them to be exact) had positive results that included the clearing of HPV. There have been many more numerous studies on this amazing mushroom. One very important one is a study showing that it may also cure insulin resistance, but this study has only been unfortunately tested on poor rats.
This is only a drop in the bucket of the many amazing healing benefits of these mushrooms. It is truly overwhelming just how much more medicinal benefits these little powerhouses hold. Please seek out more information it will amaze you, and make you wonder why they are not given to more people to heal them. However we know exactly why they aren't, but this comes as no surprise.
Traditional dosage amount is 1/2 a dropper 1-2 times per day.
Hope this video encourages you to also do more research into turkey tail mushrooms. If you have any questions please feel free to leave them in the comments section below I will answer them as soon as possible. Take care and have a blessed day.
Blessings,
Teresa

Decanted my first tincture in November which was Mullein and put it up. It turned out beautiful and is a lovely rich color in the bottle. I have a really bad cold with congestion and used this tincture. It works very well in clearing the wheezing and congestion. Now I feel confident in making them knowing they work better than what we typically buy. I took the gazillion seeds and spread them along the back of our property at the road hoping for my own plants so I can make infused Mullein flower oil. Thanks for another fabulous demonstration. Blessings!!
Your welcome and happy that you enjoyed the video. Oh that sounds wonderful and it is amazing how mullein works for so many ailments. Mullein does make a beautiful tincture, and still marvel at the beauty that each tincture contains. Do so hope that the seeds you casted out take root and grows for you. Also happy to hear that you used the word gazillion cause I know that one all to well. Thank you so much for being part of my UA-cam family and know that you are appreciated more than you know. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
August of this year was my first time foraging herbs and Mullein was the main one( also my first time learning about its existence and cheerfully searching for them). Foraged large leaves to burn & teas and a few flowers were dried and used it for teas. Today, I got 100 proof vodka and once I infuse the foragedTurkey tail, this will be my first tincture ❣️ I’m sure you get the first experience feeling. I haven’t thought to make mullein tincture but because you commented my inner child will be trying this. And the weather is getting cooler so I’m getting as much herbs in soon!
🍵 This is a waste not want not video with the bonus of the tincture. Even the mushrooms go back to compost. Thanks for the dosage info and benefits in the description 📚 ✔
Your welcome and glad that you enjoyed the video. It is truly amazing just how wonderful these and several other wild mushrooms are such medicinal allies for our health. Try my best to teach everyone as much as possible as well as leave some room to research more about them. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
My tincture is 13 weeks old. Waiting on this video, wanting to do it your way. I took notes and starting it today. Thank you so much Teresa. You deserve more than what we can give you for giving us some of your knowledge. The 1000 subscribers is awesome, the gifts you will be sharing should be give back to you 10 fold. 🤗💜
I have well water but I still boil it to use for things like this. Boil and sterilize everything else too. Loving that I'm learning something new from you every single day. Plastic chemicals leaching out after 14 days, I have a question now that I'm preparing for this winter storm coming our way. If my electricity goes out, my well stops working too. I fill bathtub up for flushing toilet. 22 quart stainless steel pot plus one half it's size for making coffee and cooking. And milk jugs for washing. If I refill milk jugs with water, is it safe to say that it can keep for 14 days?
Awe thank you and I am honored to have you as my family. Oh don't worry I'm not done sharing what I know and there will be plenty of videos to come. More than happy to share what I have learned over the years to help others be self-sufficient as well. I am blessed and still want to bless others back. It's the Old Way of doing things and love it.
Yes the water in the milk jugs will be safe for 14 days. It is a slow leaching process so you're not going to get a massive amount of plastic chemicals all at once but after 14 days it does start leaching. Make sure you have plenty of water for cooking and coffee because this storm might last a lot longer than we think it's going to. You both stay safe out there and when you can let me know how y'all are doing. Take care, stay safe and warm. Have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Very informative and interesting. I never knew about the 14 days with bottled water. 🤦🏻♀️
Thank you and glad that you enjoyed the video. Yes it is a lot of things that they don't want people to know about sadly. Just look for the bottled dates on the bottles. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Oh my gosh I'm so glad you did this video. I thought it was supposed to be a half tea half tincture mix😱 So I will start taking what I have twice a day so it will get used up and start another batch and do it your way! This makes a whole lot more sense than the way I learned to do it, adding water as you go if the tea evaporates below a certain level. See you can teach an old dog new tricks lol. I'm so glad you mentioned bottled water. Heating and freezing stuff in plastic really accelerates the leeching process too. I cringe when I see people heat stuff up in plastic in the microwave or put bottled drinks in the freezer. Thank you Teresa!
Your welcome and glad that you enjoyed the video. Yes when making double decocted tincture you have to be very careful so that you don't lower the alcohol level too low cause it won't be shelf stable. Personally don't make a lot of these types of tinctures due to the fact that you have to be very careful when making them. Yes I have to watch myself when using anything plastic wise cause old habits die hard. Yes know what you mean cause this old dog learns many new things daily. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Thank you. I found tons of turkey tails yesterday! getting my stuff together ❤❤
Read the description after the video, wow. Amazing benefits. That water bottle information is new to me. Thanks for sharing this video 👍🏾
Your welcome and glad that you enjoyed the video. Yes agree it is amazing amount of medicinal benefits, but there are even more being found out. Usually try to encourage others to do more research as well. Yes the water bottle information caught us off guard many years ago. We tested it out to make sure and that batch of colloidal silver failed. So we knew the information was factual after that. After finding out about the chemicals leaching in to the water we have kept a close eye on it. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
What a lovely lady. Am a holistic vegan therapist and have done my own thing for decades luv n light x PS Have done tinctures with my own home made wine and works good. Will give TT a go now x
I had no idea about bottle water. My husband drinks bottle water all the tim at work. I have a Berkey filter system at home, but he loves water and he.rinks bottle water at work.
I will have.to work on that, I am gladI know that now.
Thank you for the lesson. Always so important to learn from you, and it is always so educational and new.
Your welcome and glad that you enjoyed the video. Yes after finding out about the water I cringe when seeing people loading up on cases of bottled water.
Sadly here our city has the best Artisan well water, but what comes out of the tap has had so many chemicals added to it. One of the main reasons when they gave out the stimulus money I invested in a Berkey. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Congrats on 1k subscribers your knowledge and teaching is priceless thank you for everything.
Thank you so very much. Your welcome and also wanted to thank you for coming along on this journey since the beginning of my channel. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Hello Teresa, I watched both of your videos in regards to making this tincture and the information has been really helpful, thank you very much. I also noticed that you use a Berkey water filter, they are good water filters, however, Berkey uses activated alumina in their add-on fluoride filter which is only effective on naturally occurring fluoride, it is useless against fluorisilic acid. The filters that you and everyone else need are the 'AquaHouse AH-GRAV-7 Ceramic Gravity Water Filter Cartridges (2 Pack)', these excellent filters remove the fluorisilic acid from our water supply. Their filters will fit the Berkey system too because most stainless steel housings for all water filters are made in the same factory in India.
Congratulations on the 1k.
Thank you brother and couldn't have done it without my UA-cam family. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Yay i see you are at 1,000 🤪 congrats❤
Thank you so very much. Couldn't have done it without my UA-cam family. Just happy as can be and can't wait to bless others along the way like I have been. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Congratulations on 1K! That’s amazing 👏
Thank you so very much. Thankful for my UA-cam family believing in my videos and in me. Just wonderful to know that people are seeking out the Old Ways to return to being natural again. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
🎉✨💕🥇🏆😍😍😍 YOU HIT 1,000 !!!!! ( WAY before your 1st anniversary!!! HA!) Great upload. Good tinctures take time ~ and the COLOR shows 'the work' behind it. LOVE!
Thank you so very much. ❤️ Couldn't have done it without my UA-cam family and all the love and encouragement shown to me. You have been right along with me on this journey and know that you are appreciated more than you will ever know. ❤️ Happy that you enjoyed the video. Yes so very true good tinctures take time, but for your health it is so worth it. Yes when making my tinctures I focus on Love and Healing so nothing but that radiates through the mixture. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Wow, studies have shown the benefits of this for HPV too🌟 You put a lot of work into these videos for us, thank you
Thank you and glad that you enjoyed the video. Oh that is just a drop in the bucket of the healing abilities of these amazing mushrooms. Yes lots of studying over many years, and still learning more daily. Trying my best to teach people as much as possible. Natural is the way we need to go back to so we can actually heal our bodies. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Thank you so VERY much...
ThankYou So Much, Dear💗
Bless You🕊️
Thorough EXCELLENT instructional vid. Thank you for all the tips you share especially about the leeching plastic. So much benefit to your videos THANK YOU!
I appreciate all that you share and how you not only show how easy it is to do you also encourage us to do it ourselves.
Be warm, be well and be safe.
Peace and blessings
Thank you so much and happy that you enjoyed the video. Yes it is my desire to teach people correctly how to heal themselves as well as to believe in yourself cause if I can do it so can you. Want to see people heal themselves and stay safe away from medication that doesn't work.We have been blessed with plants growing upon the mother that will heal every ailment we have and to do it naturally. Just have to teach harvesting responsible practices as well. Thank you and may you always be surrounded by peace, love and blessings. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️🍀
Great video, really enjoyed it. Glad I found it even 2 years later. Thanks From Michigan

TY FOR SHARING!!!!
Good evening Spirit Goddezz and happy that you enjoyed the video. Good to see your comment and hope you have been doing well. Your welcome and trying to share as much information as possible while I can. Take care and have a blessed day ahead. ❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
Fantastic information thank you for this video uts really helped
Theresa, you're amazing. I took your recipe and used it for Ganoderma sessile. I've researched enough to know that "our" reishi also has medicinal benefits and is made into a double decoction too. Although, I can say that your method is much easier than most! Thanks 🙏
I want to learn how to make silver water!!
Thank you, good stuff
Good evening Debra and welcome to my channel. Happy that you enjoyed the video. Yes it definitely is one amazing tincture. Hope you get a chance to make you some also. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,

Hey Theresa, i'm rewatching this video cause tomorrow I'm gonna work on the rest of my T Tail tincture. Yes, I'm just getting to it now! Just wanted to say that, don't we all miss the winter when it's gone! I sure do, ha-ha .. really! Well, wish me luck with my 10 month old alchohol concoction tomorrow.. ttys -Trent
Good evening Trent and happy to hear that you are doing the second part of the tincture. You are not alone I do also but I do embrace the beauty of all the seasons. It will turn out just fine and good luck.🍀 You can do it just believe in yourself. Definitely let me know how it turns out. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
Thank you
Good evening and happy that you enjoyed the video. Hopefully you will get a chance to make your own batch. Take care and have a blessed evening. ❤️🍀🦉

@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping I will be making some with African Reishi and lions mane.
I am forever grateful for this informative lesson that I can forever carry with me and teach onto others.
Bless y'all
Lots of good information thanks.
Good evening Midnight Ocean Dunes and welcome to my channel. Happy that you enjoyed the video. Yes always try my best to have as much information as possible in the description box below each video. Your welcome and more than happy to help out as many people as possible to be more self sufficient. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉

@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping Thank you. Looking forward to making my own Turkey Tail tincture and learning more from your channel.
I only buy alcohol in glass also. It is a bit more expensive but the thought of vodka soaking up plastic makes me cringe. I love my Berkey also!!! One of the best investments I ever made.
Hello again Theresa, I found out last year that some of the logs that I cut up that have been sitting have turkey tail on them. (so does my raised beds now). Anyways, my question is, how long is this good for while in the bottle? Also, you would not happen to know what type of fungus on logs look like root beer jelly. Thanks again for another video. Trying to get out to start my own personal collection of tinctures.
Other video i went to got me thinking how many of my teachers would target certain kids in there class to not understand...
Finally finished mine, only 5 months later lol I was wondering if anyone has noticed a separation in their dual extraction? I don't really see how anything could go wrong with this but it looks weird and I've never done it before. I would cry if i had to toss this whole batch😢
That’s a tongue twister 😂 Double Decocted Turkey Tail Tincture 😂
Yes it definitely is and usually always gets me. 🤣🤣
I would love to take a Zoom class with you to learn more. I'm a wee little baby when it comes to this knowledge. I want to be a certified herbalist.
Hello and welcome to my channel. Have many videos teaching how to make different tinctures, salves and other herbal remedies. We all start out at that same place and continue to grow along the way. As for being a certified herbalist personally don't want to be one the way this world and country are heading. Prefer to keep the government out of my life as much as possible. However with that being said if that is your dream then go for it full throttle. ❤️ To be honest I have no clue how to work zoom at all. 😉 Take care and have a blessed evening. ❤️🍀
@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping You have a good point, and the thinkgis I can watch your videos as many times as I need to. Thank you🥰
Your welcome and more than happy to help. As this approaching growing season comes will be posting much more herbal information and remedies. ❤️🍀
Hmmmmm, I've never seen a double decoction before today. I've only known about either/or (water or alcohol). Very interesting!
Happy that you enjoyed the video. Yes it is a wonderful tincture to make sure that you get all the medicinal benefits out of the turkey tail mushrooms. Mushrooms are the only ones that I make the double decocted tinctures with. Take care and have a blessed evening. ❤️🍀
your necklace is very beautiful. who designed it. what is the calculation on the water alcohol ratio after adding the mushroom liquid. I've yet to make a extraction, decoction due to the fear of compromising the medicine. I make my mushroom decoction to drink though. good healing Halalu Yah
Teresa, thank you for sharing all of this knowledge! I have a turkey tail tincture set up, mine is very dark in color? Possibly due to I had a LOT more surface area with my mushrooms? You're alcohol is still quite clear. My mushrooms were also dried. Can you help me figure out why mine is so dark? Thanks so much! Blessings
Good evening Crystal and welcome to my channel. Happy that you enjoyed the video. Okay mine was made from young fresh turkey tails and made sure that where they were attached to the log was completely removed. Personally don't know if them being dried would affect the color due to not using dried ones before. It didn't show well on camera but was a light tan color. Only thing might be is you used much older turkey tails but I don't know. If they still had any of the tree bark attached to them the darkness might be from the tannins. Hope this helps you out. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
I hope you enjoy the dehydrating cookbook! 🙃
What was the name of that awesome Banjo music track you had in your intro?
You can always find it listed in the description box below all of my videos that have music.
Wanted to say Thank You for making music for those who can't afford to pay for it.

Now the turkey tail tea, before you add it back to the tincture- has all the alcohol been cooked out of it? I ask because some people say yes heat cooks 100% of the alcohol out, and some say no it does not..
Yes the minute it comes up to the simmer stage all alcohol does evaporate out. Oh believe me it simmered for 4 hours there is no chance at all for any of it to have survived. 😉 Take care and have a blessed evening. ❤️🍀
@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping Thank you Soul Sista! You have a high quality channel 👏
I use glass bottles I go to the market
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I am new to making my own tinctures. Questions for you... some videos I have watched measure out the mushrooms and double the alcohol to the weight of the mushroom (example: 100 grams mushroom = 200ml of alchohol) to make the 1st part of the extract ... do you weigh out the mushrooms to know how much alcohol you will need? ... second question is ... I am wanting to take my tincture after the double decoction and add it to a broth to sip on every day instead of tincture form because it is just easier for me to take that way in a different form rather than drops ... however I am wondering about making the broth would it be best to add the tincture after it cooks so as not to lose medicinal properties? Or can I simmer the broth with the tincture in it? (Same question for when making a hot tea to sip on and drink) ... just wanting to take my tincture in different forms which I know I will take more often as opposed to the dropper but I don't want to lose the medicinal properties of that tincture if I cook it into a different form (soup/ broth/ tea) ... thanks for your advice/ help!
Good evening Kristina and welcome to my channel. Happy that you enjoyed the video. To be honest no I don't measure them out in grams and just add them to my jar to make a strong beginning tincture. Yes you can add the double decocted tincture to broth and take it in that way. However with this being said you are not going to want your broth to be too hot. If it's too hot you do take a risk of particles of the tincture evaporating out with the alcohol. Wished there was a easier answer for you. Unfortunately in the turkey tails there are medicinals only alcohol pull out and others only water pull out. Hope this helps to answer your questions and if you have more please ask away. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping thanks for taking the time to reply and with such a thorough response. Much Appreciated!!
QUESTION:
Teresa???
When I mixed my tincture together, it came out cloudy and clumpy looking!
I'm sure I did everything the right way. I haven't tried any yet.
Is it still ok?
Do you wash/clean your Turkey tails before you start the process? And do you use fresh or do you have to dry them first?
How do you get the little maggots out of it or do you just leave them?
Do you know your alcohol content of your turkey tail decoction
how much turkey tail did you use for a 1/2 gal jar... I thought it was a 50/50 mix of tincture & tea?
What is the daily dosage of the double extract tincture?
Good evening Roberta and happy that you enjoyed the video. All information about dosage and more medicinal benefits are always in the description box below each video. Take care and have a blessed day ahead. ❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
Did you cook the mushrooms first? Or just put them in without cooking them (raw)?
Good evening Patty and happy that you enjoyed the video. No ma'am no need to cook the turkey tail mushrooms when you make the first part of the tincture. There is a 2nd part to this video in my tinctures playlist.
Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
Do you think alcohol could destroy water soluble ingredients ?
Good evening M B and happy that you enjoyed the video. The reasoning behind using 100 proof vodka is that it is a balanced alcohol. It's 50% alcohol and 50% water so I would definitely say no the alcohol will not destroy any of the water soluble ingredients. Take care and have a blessed day ahead.❤️🍀🦉
Blessings,
Teresa
@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping Thank You for your kind reply
