Operational evidence for treating infusion as a monitored extraction process governed by material, contact time, sensory endpoint, and separation. Shelf-life and preservation claims are not retained.
General infusion guidance followed by fruit, herb, spice, and spirit examples.
Infusion time varies with the ingredient; the recipes repeatedly direct the maker to taste for the preferred intensity, extend contact only as needed, and strain when the desired endpoint is reached or before bitterness and breakdown develop.
