I bought a 2 lb. pour pot, but prefer my 4 lb. The 4 lb. spout is more narrow, which is good for pouring. A word of advice, try not to pour wax close to your burners on the stove. I used to do the double boiler method, presto pot is the way to go. It also looks like you used aluminum foil to protect your cabinets. Try wax paper, because you could also use that to do your color test, too.
