Xanthan Gum (1 oz)
Xanthan gum is produced by a bacteria. It is a common thickener used in many foods. It produces a "smoother" finish than other gum binders, but it is equal in strength to others. This package will make over 1,000 average-sized incense cones or sticks.

Gum binders are powerful and flexible for making incense. They are the "glue" that holds many kinds of incense together. Gum binders are appropriate for making cones, joss sticks, masala sticks, coils, and cylinders. They are definitely all purpose binders that should be in the toolbox of every natural incense maker. All of the gum binders that I sell are essentially interchangeable. Each has its own "personality" but you can use the same quantity of binder regardless of which gum binder you choose. For many incense blends, for every 2 teaspoons of incense powder, add 1/8 teaspoon of gum binder. If you want to make masala-style incense sticks (with a wooden rod in the center), you should use 1/4 teaspoon of gum binder if your mix isn't adhering to the wood properly.
