Robert, we use Incense sticks and cones in various fragrances, from sandalwood to Jasmine, from rose to tuberoses, here in India, all the time. All our auspicious occasions and temple ceremonies are incomplete without them. How beautifully and carefully, you explained the procedure. This series is turning out to be quite spectacular. 👏👏👏

Avoid using over harvested white sage, that’s also ceremonial to indigenous people. Any other variety of sage will work just as well!

Too bad he didnt light the sage bundle correctly and you never blow put sage...non native should use common sage or other herbs like rosemary or lavender

I'd love to receive a gift of home made, hand dipped, incense cones that someone made with their own two hands and made with love. Sure better than a no thought present from the store. I love how he added the sand paper top for striking the matches. Well done!

This is really good & respectful. For my people we usually don't blow out our incense. Also note: if you purchase white sage, make sure you get it from an indigenous supplier because it is endangered. Other types of sage work just as well, like garden/culinary sage.

@kepler9920

White sage is not listed as endangered anywhere, nor has it ever been. That's just a rumor that got spread around from people who were concerned it might be because of over harvesting from selfish assholes. Luckily I don't have to buy it, my mil had it in her garden.

@@kepler9920 Ooh I love it when it's fresh from the garden! (btw thanks for LMK, I looked some stuff up & while it is not endangered, you're right, there is concern for it becoming endangered. either way, native people are more likely to harvest it according to the law of honourable harvest, but as long as you or your supplier harvests it with proper respect then imo it should be fine. Different ppl have different views tho, some natives say only natives can use it, others say non-natives can participate in its use only if the person actually handling it is native, etc, I'm coming from a more northern stance for example)

Thanks for this guidance! With this foundation, the possibilities seem endless... I used a coffee grinder to get my cedar needles into a powdery form. I formed a cone mold from the metal cap of a cosmetic bottle by cutting and rolling with writing pens of various girths. Many slender consumer bottle caps can serve as a mold. A large thimble could be refined as well. Happy creating folks!

Love his calming voice along with the idea of gifting the homemade incense…… so so ….. calming… got me sold on the idea 💡

This is so far my favourite recipe for creating incense. Simple and peaceful. Very lovely!

Beautifully explained and wonderfully put together video!!! LOVE the idea of using icing bag tips to shape the cones.

We appreciate your detailed DIY demonstration. Presentation was excellent! 🌟

This is my first video on making DIY incense cones, and it was very enjoyable to watch. I looked at Kin as a potential subscriber, but wasn't a fan of the rest of the material posted there, so when I found that Robert had his own page (which you can reach by clicking on his name at the very bottom of the Description next to Collaborator), I was so excited. I look forward to watching more of his crafting videos!

I absolutely LOVE THIS!!! I am going to try this for my Sister-in-law's new home! Thank you Robert! I have seen only 2 videos of yours and I have to Subscribe!!

loved it! I've made with eucalyptus bark powder and white pitch instead

Great video! Can’t wait to try this. I love the format of the video and you have a very soothing voice.

I love the simplicity in your ingredients and process. Here in India handmade agarbatti/joss sticks or even the cones with natural ingredients have recently become hard to find. I've decided to try and make my own and am in the process of powdering a few spices, I love the fragrance of cinnamon and it's woody. Next time I will stick to fewer spices for that individual fragrance. Thank you for this video. Lajo

You have no idea how much I love that you approach this stuff through the lens of culture and indigenous history, and not modern "witchcraft"

Thank you for sharing this info and thank you for going threw so much work to make such a nice video. Love from wellness center White Fairy in Slovenia.

A wonderful video! Thank you so much! I have been researching how to make my own cones at home and this is perfect. If this helps, I have found an incense cone making tool on AliExpress. It is an acrylic mould with two sides that are clamped together and held by butterfly screws. You fill one side with a mounded amount of the paste and clamp the other side on to it, making bullet shaped cones. The mould makes 8-10 cones at once which would be time-saving, especially if you want to make a lot of cones for Xmas gifts. In addition, you can get electric spice grinders that will finely powder the dried leaves for you. This is especially useful if you have arthritis and cannot gring by hand using a pestle and mortar. If you want an even burn and smoother cone, it is recommended to sieve the dry ingredients before adding the water. I wanted to share these ideas as they may be useful for people who would like to make their own bullet shaped cones like you can buy in the shops. You can also use the mould as a holder to drill the center of your cones out to make backflow cones. Backflow cones are currently quite expensive to buy and frequently of poor quality, often made from lumber sawdust and just smelling of burnt old wood! Make your own and get the smell exactly as you like using natural ingredients, and you can avoid the chemical rubbish out there.

I searched for 'incence cone mold alibaba' and then selected the Google images tab and browsed until I found something. For the spice grinders look on ebay or Amazon and there are many.

Hi wonderful video, I have question please. How can you harden the cones so it won't break down while storing or gifting them?

Thanks!

Thanks for the helpful video. :) I made some cones using your technique with makko powder and finely powdered aromatic. They've been drying out for about 36 hours but I've just tried to burn one. I hold the lighter flame to the tip for several seconds until the tip glows, but then it stops burning after about 10 seconds. What's gone wrong? They feel dry to me, but are you sure they don't need to dry out for longer? I've heard it can take up to a month of drying time, but it's not humid here.

Thanks! Could you please share where you sourced the nice jars with metal lids. Too often they are plastic lids or cork lids and hard to find. Thank you.

I know that I'm a bit late, so sorry about that. I would recommend going to a local grocery store & getting culinary sage because it is cheaper & not endangered. If you purchase white sage, make sure you are getting it from an ethical indigenous supplier.

Tip, the finer you grind the herbs the more evenly and better it will burn. Using a coffee grinder really helps with this
