Formulation Tips

Evaluate it diluted
01

Evaluate it diluted

Dilute the sample in water to better appreciate its aromatic complexity and balance.

Keep raw samples refrigerated
02

Keep raw samples refrigerated

When supplied raw, our fermented lemon balm contains active cultures and should be kept refrigerated, as fermentation can continue over time.

Formulating with sugar
03

Formulating with sugar

In live formulations, added sugars can restart fermentation and alter flavor. Keep refrigerated and consider pasteurization for stability.

Balance the acidity
04

Balance the acidity

Our fermented lemon balm is naturally acidic, but a properly balanced formulation should not taste like vinegar. Balance the dosage to bring out its complexity.
