25g infused in a pint of water is a good guide-line, but you may like to increase or reduce this depending upon your own taste. The standard infusion needs you to take the following steps:
Take 1oz of dried herbs(http://www.mitamins.com/) to 1 pint of boiling water. Place the herbs in a warm pot and add boiling water. Leave to infuse everything for 5 to 10 minutes according to taste. Your homemade nutritional supplement will keep fresh for up to two days in the fridge. The correct dosage is 3-4 cups daily.
For decoctions that involve boiling nutritional substances in order to extract principles from hard woody materials such as bark, root, seeds, rhizomes and nuts, it is useful to break these materials down to smaller parts using a mortar and pestle, before using them. Then they need to simmered and re-boiled several times, until the final tea is almost a mud-like consistency. Dont be surprised if the taste is fairly bitter!
