Adjust lid and heat to control evaporation. Strain herbs; save and refrigerate the dregs for a second boiling (if desired).
Note that some minerals and shells are pre boiled, some flowers are added during the last 5 minutes of boiling, and some prepared powders are not cooked, but are added to the strained decoction.
