What i did with my basil was dry the matured flowers as much as possible, then cruch em up as much as possible without damaging the seeds.

Then, put on a lengthy tray/sheet pan and put all the flower/seed dust on one of the narrow sides. Then, lift the tray/sheet pan slowly and kinda tap it. Youll see seeds go to the other end faster than flower powder. So, when the flower powder gets about 75% of the way to the other side, push it back, and repeat.

Hope this helps :)
