I measured the appropriate amount of thymol into a bottle, added a bit of
isopropyl alcohol and shook. It was cloudy and there were crystals on the
bottom, so I then added a bit more alcohol and shook again several times
until the solution was clear. I then added the solution to a tank of syrup
and recirculated it with a pump for a while.
