I was always taught NOT to have sun on it as it can remove the medical qualities! I think there are two schools of thought there. You can always warm in gently in a double boiler which is what I do when I want to make lemon balm salve.

This is definitely a good alternative!
I followed the way the old people here do it, and when I tried it, the process seemed to have worked well since the final oil was quite effective :)
As long as the lid is on tight, the medical properties are released and held in the oil. I always live mine n the sun for that reason and they work really well. It is interesting to hear different ways of doing th same thing xxxx
Absolutely. I love the idea of the sun one but never do it. Maybe as the sun here is so crazy I worry it'll kill everything!!!
