Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Gretchen Soares and welcome to Expert Village. Today we're going to be making soy candles. In this clip we're going to be heating the soy. We're going to be using a metal port-a-pot and it's metal throughout with a handle on it so it doesn't fall in to the pot. We're going to take our soy and we're going to put some in the port-a-pot. Okay, so it's just set in there. We're going to take this and put it in our double boiler. We're going to use a paint stir stick to stir this as it starts melting. So it's going to boil for a little while and you're going to stir it occasionally for melting. So as this is on the stove it’s going to be melting and you're going to get a consistency such as this. You're going to keep stirring and keep letting it melt. "
