Why does temperature and vessel coverage matter when preparing loose-leaf botanicals?

Steeping aromatic leaves or blossoms uncovered allows up to 42% of volatile oils to escape in steam, while boiling water destroys cold-soluble mucilage in Marshmallow Root and Slippery Elm, and unstrained Mullein leaf hairs can tickle the throat without 20-micron filtration. Following exact gram, °C/°F, and time specifications ensures repeatable results.
