I would not use that wax you linked to to dip wax. It is made in China, which is a warning that it may contain all sorts of contaminants. Also, the description says it contains a mix of various waxes, including microcrystaline and paraffin. I wouldn't want a petrochemical like that in contact with my cheese - certainly for a period of years. The reviews say that the dye bleeds into the cheese - that is a bad sign. Also, what dyes did they use to color the waxes - are they food safe? Find a USA or European made cheese wax. At least they are likely to be food safe. I have bee hives, so can use pure bees wax for dipping.
I just found your channel and love the idea of waxing my bulk cheese. I assume I can order the wax online? Also, the background "white" noise and music was a bit loud. I adjust my music in my video editor and use a screen with my mic for background "white" noise. Plus, I find that I did this little smack between thoughts and it helped me eliminate that. Good luck on your channel. I look forward to more.
Here is my affiliate link : amzn.to/43Kc3Hp I got it on Amazon. I do make a small commission is you use my link. I would make sure the wax is food grade and meant for cheese. I hope this helps !

100% agree! I would love to do this but will NOT buy anything made in China.
@@conservativehispanic5918 Find a local farmer's market and look for a farmer selling local honey. They may also have beeswax for sale.
Thank you so much for the heads up!
looks great, I have seen a video on this, good job
Thank you!

Thank you for your advice !
what kind of wax did you use and where did you get it? what should one look for in purchasing wax? I really want to try this!

Thus would be good for 1 or 2 people but buy in bulk!
Is it possible to reuse the wax? Filtering necessary?
Yes you can. You can melt the wax down and strain through a cheesecloth to reuse your wax! Thank you for asking that great question!
😂 I'm sorry but that's funny. I'd have tried my meat cleaver and likely broke the table.
Ha ha I know it is solid !!!
