Brenny Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Hi everyone. I tried the suggestions on getting rid of my wet spots and they worked. I understand you probably won't get rid of them entirely but thanks so much for all the advice.Another question: I have read that some people mix their color and FO in their pour pots ( I have a pyrex) how do you keep it at the right temp. after you preheat the pyrex measuring cup?Thanks for all your helpBrenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demenshia Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I use the metal pouring pots, but I think either would work the way I do it it. I heat mine a good bit higher than the temp I pour at. Then add additives/FO/color etc. After they are added and stirred I let cool to my pouring temp. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I keep a presto griddle turned on all the time I am making candles to about 225. Keep pyrex - coffee pot - 4 oz =1 lb, 8 oz = 2 lbs, all the way to metal rim = 3 lbs ( very handy) on heating and measure the wax from presto with pour spout in coffee pot and then transfer to heated metal pour pot and add dye and fo. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
