How to make process for extraction of spices in water more efficient?

Hi, I make a bottled chai concentrate (spices, tea, water). As the business is growing I am looking for ways to streamline / simplify the extraction process without introducing any strong solvents that will alter the flavour of the product. At the moment we finely grind the (mixed) spices, boil them in water for 60mins, filter off the extract, repeat this process with the same spices and fresh water. Then filter again and heat-seal in glass bottles. Any recommendations for flavourless solvents / organic acids and % and/or changes in the process would be greatly appreciated - there is a lot of literature online that I am struggling to get my head around!

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Lucy

As making this process more efficient has commercial benefits so I do not think that people r going to give you this know how free.

There are many ways to achieve outstanding results fro this process.

Hi Hamid, thanks for your response. I am just a one-man-band here with very limited resources, relying on the good will of people in the know. Hopefully there is someone out there who is willing to provide some pointers or a little literature.

All the best

You may find some additional help on a site called reddit. Google "food science reddit". You need to register to post but it is quick/easy. 

Good luck!
