Temp for adding FO

[georgiaII]

What is the general consensus on when it is better to add FO - at a higher temperature or at a lower temperature? Would appreciate input very much.

It depends on the wax. For pillar waxes, I pour hot so I must add my fo hot, usually at around 180-190 degrees F. For container waxes, I add my fo at about 170-175. I generally go by whatever the wax manufacturer recommends for the temps. HTH

I generally follow the instructions for each particular wax, however, I prefer to add my FO in right before I am ready to pour. I never had a problem with a weaker throw doing this. I have severe allergies so when I pour I wear a mask and the least exposure to the FO's for me, the better, ESP florals and cinnamons. Vanilla's I can add anytime and not wear a mask, and most bakery scents too.

Hi Georgia! If you click on the search button along the top toolbar, and then type in "add FO temperature", you'll find a plethora of info!
