DIY Kit Instructions
Included, you will find the following ingredients:
Varied plant materials
Makko (the binding agent)
12 sticks
1 mixing stick for stirring
Gloves
Items you will need to provide:
A bowl
Recommended amount of water based on blend (see below)
A measuring teaspoon
Mask (recommended)
A flat surface
Paper to protect the surface
Tape for securing the paper to the surface
A drying rack
- First, take everything out of the bag, and make sure the items listed at the top are included.
- Pour the Makko and other plant ingredients into the bowl. Mix them together thoroughly until they are evenly distributed.
- Then, add the water or tea a teaspoon at a time. Remember: You can always add more water. If you feel you have added too much water, you can let the dough dry out a bit before returning to it. The consistency should be dough- like, and you should be able to shape it into a ball easily.
- Knead your ball of dough around 2-3 minutes.
- Then, roll small portions of dough onto sticks, roughly ½ teaspoon, though this can vary widely. Stop rolling the dough about two inches from the bottom of sticks.
- Set on drying rack.
**Sticks must dry 2-5 days before burning. Aroma enhances with time.*
