The The liquid that condensates in the tube and drips out the end should have the mint smell in it

Answer 3

Depends on how much you want and whether you want to consume it.

The oil or essence can be seen as small droplets on the cut leaf (depending on the variety) with a magnifying glass.

For tea, drink flavoring, or cooking flavoring, abit of soaking (in water or alcohol) or steeping (hot water) works.

For a greater quantity, the plants are cut and left to dry for a day or two. After it's dry, the mint is chopped.

Steam is then used to distill the oil. It vaporizes the oil in the dried plant, and those vapors are piped to water-cooled condensers, which turns the vapor into liquid. (Think old-style moonshine still).

The mint's essential oil then rises to the top of the condensate water in a separator, and the oil is skimmed off.
