Decocting is divided into three steps: soaking Chinese herbal medicine, decocting, bagging and sealing. A big bag of medicinal materials should be soaked for more than half an hour before frying, and then fried for more than an hour. It takes nearly two hours to cook a patient's Chinese medicine. Almost every patch is different, so pay attention to the temperature during the boiling process. Some people may need more water, while others may need less water. Moreover, some medicines are first decocted for a period of time, and then blindly or with a few herbs, which determines that it is impossible for the machine to directly decoct medicines.
