Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine the makko powder, sandalwood powder, and your chosen dried herb. 
2. Stir until well blended.Sprinkle in a little water at a time, mixing thoroughly. You want the mixture to be damp enough to stick together, but not wet or sticky.If you’d like to add essential oils, do so at this stage. 
3. Add no more than 5–10 drops total. Mix well to distribute evenly.
4. Knead the mixture with your hands until it forms a pliable dough that doesn’t stick to your fingers. 
5. Roll small portions into cone shapes by hand, or press them into a cone-shaped mold for uniformity.
6. Place the shaped cones on a parchment-lined tray. 
7. Allow them to air dry for at least 5 days in a cool, dry area.Once completely dry, your incense is ready to use! Light the tip of a cone, blow out the flame, and let the glowing ember release fragrant smoke. Always place incense on a heat-safe surface, and never leave it unattended while burning.
