Great advice, thanks. I guess a griddle/warming plate purchase is in my future. Any brand/model recommendations? I found some in the Aroma brand, but not sure if their settings go low enough.

I'm having issues with temperature as I melt wax (parasoy blend) in a Presto pot, and pour into a room temp (standard metal) pour pitcher. The wax is at 185 in the Presto, but as it hits the room temp pour pitchers, it cools down to about 140 right away. I prefer to add FO and color in the pour pitcher so the Presto can just keep pure wax at 185. Easier transitions and cleanup that way. But adding FO at 140 in the pitcher is no good. And by the time FO is stirred in for a couple minutes, the temp drops even more. Well under a good pour temp. How have you maintained temp going from a melter into a pour pot? I never see larger productions warming their pitchers - how do bigger shops do it? (new to forums... be gentle)
