I do not measure, I just cut enough to fit in my presto pot and measure into a pour pot when it reaches the correct temp. Hope that helps!Dixie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltbox Pantry Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 It is a sticky wax and it cuts like butter. You measure the same way you would with Ez Soy. It comes in 10 pound slabs but for 4 lbs Brenda will cut it up, probably send it in one pound baggies.To get the mixing directions I printed out a copy from the GL site and just highlighted the temperatures. Hope this helps,SP:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandmaskitchen Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I never liked the wax in slab form before, but this wax is definitely easier to cut up than a lot of others I've tried. To measure, I put my glass Pyrex measuring cup on my digital scale, tare it out, and slice the wax into the cup. When I have a pound, I dump it into my Presto pot. Great stuff to work with!
