Hi Mary,
Yes, you could infuse your gotu kola and green tea in oil within your slow cooker on the lowest setting and this would indeed make it hours rather than weeks. However the biggest drawback is that heating oil increases the chances of it going rancid and can reduce the antioxidant strength that you are looking for in this specific oil infusion.
I think this is the reason that Marisa is using a longer infusion process.
With warmth,
Benna
