[QUOTE="James, post: 8023, member: 212"] Aah , here we go again. We cook up the mix in the water jacketed tank that generaly melts wax. It has a simmerstat on it and is set to low when the water is upto speed. The strips are the grey ones from Hive world. They are loaded into buckts and then soaked in the acid for a day or so. What I notice is that the O/A crystallises on the strips as they dry out, which tells me that they are not properly mixed into the glycerine, but I do note that the lastest drum of glycerine from Farmlands is quite a bit thinner than the original stuff. I would be kinda nice to buy them presoaked by a professional chemist rather than a backyard cooker. [/QUOTE]
