Procedure

Phase A–In main vessel, add phase A and begin heating and mixing to 70-75°C. Phase B–In side vessel, add phase B and begin heating and mixing to 70-75°C. While both phases are reaching temperature, prepare Phase E. Weigh 0.25% micronized white tea into filter paper. Heat 200-300 cc of deionized water to 80°C and hold. Gradually pour the water over the tea and collect the filtered liquid for later use. At temperature, add phase B to A, increasing mixing as needed to emulsify and create a homogeneous solution. Discontinue heat and cool to 60°C. Phase C – Add a premixed phase C to Phase AB and continue cooling to 50°C. Phase D – Pre-weigh phase D into a small beaker and then add to phase ABC. Phase E –Add phase E to Phase ABCD and cool to 40°C. Phase F – Add phase F to Phase ABCDE, increase speed as needed to make homogeneous. Continue cooling to 25-30°C and transfer to holding vessel.
