The use of aloes from natural ingredients as a drug increasingly interested in the community, along with the movement "back to nature" (back to nature) are made public. Some refiners do prior to distillation treatment by soaking the powder of aloes. Aloes contains the required components of the world's health, cosmetics and medicines. The purpose of this study was to identify the chemical components contained in the oil produced from the distillation of aloes with immersion treatment using either water or methanol. In accordance with the reading of GCMS, the distillate without immersion and immersion treatments using water produced by the component most aloes are sesquiterpene components. These components is 2 butanone, 4 phenylaceton (10.72%) and Hinesol (16.59%). Components contained in aloes by treatment with methanol immersion is Pentadecane,2,6,10,14 pristane-tetramethyl 15.96%.
