Hello, sorry about that. We have just restocked our Tragacanth supply! The recipe in this series will make about 10-15 cones, depending on their size of course.
Hi Sharon, Tragacanth is back in stock. You can also use Guar gum or Xanthan gum. This recipe makes roughly 10 – 15 1 inch cones. Depending on their thickness.
The recipe calls for 3 1/2 teaspoons of water, added in small increments to thoroughly incorporate it into your mixture. If you haven’t already, be sure to download the pdf found just below the video lesson for the full recipe.
Hi Debra. Are you referring to essential oil, or something else? Since oils are not water soluble there is a more advanced way to calculate out how to add them into incense to help them disperse properly. Usually alcohol is used in these methods. It would be too much to lay out that whole process here. Rose hydrosol can be used in place of water easily however!

Thank you for the informative well narrated video. I have one other question. Can you use rose oil in this mix? in the water mixture?

I saw that xanthan gum can be used in place of Tragacanth. Is that substitution 1:1?
Hi Debbie, yes, a 1:1 can work.
Thank you Evan for the mini workshop series!
