First Try At Beeswax Candles

For not having much wax, we did pretty good!

Mentor Billy showing how it’s done
Caps mixed with usable honey
Draining the caps anyway possible
Much more honey by draining
Bees love honey!
All bees love honey!
Dry wax caps ready to be heated
Old crockpot. It is messy!
Most of the trash is left in the bag
Beeswax floats to the top
Hopefully enough for candles
Still needs to be filtered

Working with the wax inside…

Let’s get started!
Small chunks melt faster
Don’t burn your hand, Mr. Model!
Dip in wax…
Cool, repeat
Done!
Wicks are ready
Jar candles
Dip candles

About me

I'm just a dude trying to learn about raising bees to help our country through Apiculture. Hopefully, I will have some interesting pictures and video along the way.
