Info about incence making - what to prepare

Hi everyone,

On Thursday we'll have [how to make incense] workshop. We'll make 2 types of incense:

- Charcoal based cone incense (combustible incense)
- Neriko - Japanese kneaded incense (non-combustible incense)

You can bring your preferred smelly materials for the workshop. They should be dried and powdered already. How much to prepare actually depends on the materials, but let's say something like 2 to 4 table spoon (powdered). Please remember that the raw materials should be fragrant enough. There is a limitation to the numbers of mortars, so let's see how we organize it - we'll perhaps give priority to the students who have materials directly connected to the mini-project.

If you want to know more about the possibilities of incense and incense making, these are good resources.
