Some recipes for crucible alchemy are easy to match, with no Essentia leftovers, but it's not always easy or possible to do so. This method might be helpful at times - like when you need an even amount (like eight) of any kind of Essentia. I found out about this when I needed to make a lot of Balanced Shards, and it really helped!

Using Essentia Phials can be combined with throwing items into the crucible, of course. And remember that you can't fill a phial with less than 8 essentia, so make sure to match the "crafting amount" with that. The Phial will be destroyed in the process, but they are cheap to make.

I often say Essence instead of Essentia, please take no notice of that :)
