All stages have to be done according to the instruction step by step. I recommend adding Linseed to molten components of A phase, right before blending with B phase. C phase should be added after a cream coagulate and has a temperature about 40^oC.

DESCRIPTION:

1.     Prepare water bath – pot with water on the cooker - and heat it up (2,3 cm of water in pot wide enough for two beakers).

2.     Put the components of A phase to the first beaker and then to the water bath.

3.     Put the components of B phase to the second beaker and then also to the water bath.

4.     Heat up both phases until all components melt. Do not overheat them. Get the beakers out from the water bath.

5.     While mixing intensively (best with minimixer) put A phase to the B phase.

6.     Mix it until cream cool and coagulate a bit. Then add C phase.

7.     Put cream to the pharmaceutical pack and keep in the fridge for about 2 week (without preservatives).
