Things You'll Need:
- Scales
- Pitcher
- Coconut oil
- Cocoa butter
- Canola oil
- Beeswax
-
Step 1
Weigh all the ingredients carefully before mixing and place in a convenient location. Mark off each ingredient and weight on your recipe card as you go along.
-
Step 2
Place the pitcher on the scales and put the scales to zero. This ensures that weighed ingredients do not factor in the weight of the container.
-
Step 3
Pour coconut oil into the empty pitcher still sitting on the scale. Often coconut oil needs a 10 to 20 seconds in the microwave to loosen it out of the original container.
-
Step 4
Use a spoon to add the cocoa butter, canola oil and beeswax, in that order, to the pitcher and make a note of the exact weight on your recipe card or on paper. You'll need exact measurements.
-
Step 5
Tip the pitcher full of oils into a medium stainless steel saucepan, making sure to get every last drop of mix out of the pitcher.
-
Step 6
Turn an oven plate onto low heat and place a saucepan on top. It doesn't matter if the stove is electric or gas just as long as the burner is very low to prevent the oils from burning.
-
Step 7
Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until the beeswax, the last item to melt, has turned into tiny lumps. Switch off the burner and remove from heat.
