Spray the pitcher and spatula with 99% alcohol after you put them in double boiler and wipe them off with the paper towel. It would come out looking like it never touched wax/oils. The fragrance or any oils would also come off.
Ellie, I'm totally new to candle making but that's an awesome tip! Would a lower percentage rubbing alcohol still be ok?
thank you I just used my 50% alcohol and it really helped remove all the fragrance that was left behind!!
@@reaperraven2193 Thanks a bunch!
@@thetinycandlemaker1462 This has been the hardest part is cleaning up and getting the smell outta my kitchen haha
Ellie W thank you! I was exhausted after the repetitive washing
I'm 21 and I'm starting my own candle company. You have no idea how lucky I feel to have found you. Thank you so much for these videos. Def subscribing.

I use my heat gun. Turn it upside down, the wax rolls out and the fragrance burns off. Enjoy your videos.
Don Higginbotham Thank you!
Jeff out here saving the day all the time, this was my exact problem
Jeff out here saving the day all the time, this was my exact problem and I didn't even think of that! Thank you :)
I've found your method works good and easy. I've also used a heat gun too that's pretty quick as well.
Thank you! I searched all over the internet for this information
If you spray them with rubbing alcohol after you wipe them it takes the scent away also.
Thank you for these hints. You should have seen me fighting to clean mine ugh.
This reminds me of the time I decided to make candy apples. I created the candy coating--which was hot and melted in the pot. Then I did the apples. But afterward, the hard candy coating was glued to my pot. I was completely freaked out thinking I had ruined it. I was so upset that I decided to just fill it with water and leave it overnight and think about how on earth to salvage it (or if I should just throw it away), in the morning. In the morning, I got up and looked in the sink, and the hard candy, being mostly sugar, had melted into the water, and the pot was totally clean. I just laughed at myself for not thinking about how sugar melts in water. :) So simple. Glad I didn't throw the pot away before giving it a soak!
Thank you for this video I am starting my own wax melts business
Thank you so much for this. Very helpful keep up the great work and dropping gems
I want to say thank you for your help
You’re welcome.
This was super helpful. I have been making lip balm and made a huge mess trying to clean it out.
Thank you for this video! I just began bottle cutting and candle making. This helped so much with my first question. Second, if you are using various scented oils, and one melting pot, how do you keep the pot from "cross-scenting" your next batch? I use separate stirring spoons for different scents (long bar spoons) but seems crazy to buy 6 or more pots. Thank you!
You mentioned you would throw the wax away. Would you not just keep it and use it again?? Surely that's a little more cost effective? Great video by the way! Helped a lot
Thanks Jeff! Could you also share how to remove the residual scent from the pitcher? I used a technique with baking soda, but I think many would benefit if you make a video from it.
Someone else in the comments said they spray theirs woth 99% alcohol and wipe it to make sure any scent is gone
Wiping with alcohol :)
Ty I appreciate you my boy 🙏
hi. great and very helpful videos. any tips on cleaning silicone moulds? thank you
Thanks for this video worked prefectly!
Congrats feel proud of yourself n keep going .
Thanks 💖
Dont add dishwashing soap (like Dawn) to water when you clean it. If any residue is left it will neutralize the fragrance. Learned this the hard way :(
Omg. Thank you so so so much
Ive been struggle
Good to know this 👍 Thank you!
I don’t put fragrance in my pot. I mix all my fragrance in once I pour it into my glass measuring cups.
Jeff was a naughty boy! He did not clean-up his mess after playing. Naughty boy, naughty...naughty...naughty. Fifty lashes with a wet lasagna noodle! 😛😛😛😘😛😛😛😘
C LM lol
Thank you so very, very much 💯
Thanks!
THANK YOU!!
Hi love ur videos how Manuel is your pourer
Do you know how I can remove the wax from a plastic jug? or is best to use metal ?
Thank you 🙏
thanks mate
Thank you!!❤️
Jeff just a question. Is ur spoon plastic ? And does oil get into the plastic
Joel Baker it’s silicone and I’ve never noticed it absorbing any scent ever.
Ok ty
Use heat gun and wipe it with paper towel its easy to clean vessels
How would you get the scent of the F/O out? Can pitcher be wiped with vinegar to remove scent?
How do you get the fragrance oil scent out. Washing with 70- 90% rubbing alcohol isn't doing it at all.
I wipe them down while hot with a paper towel and then rinse with hot soapy water.
My wife threw a candle making kit at me and said she needed candles for coworkers for christmas. My oldest in classic ignore me and do what I told him not to do wasn't paying attention and put the dirty candle pot back on the burner which he apparently somehow turned on and I have burned wax at the bottom of this pot that I can't seem to get out. Anyone have any ideas? It's a smaller steel pot and it's hard to get my chubby hands inside it to really scrub.
I would like to make a shirt with my logo in that same color foil or whatever that is on your shirt...
Diana Oquendo I got the material from Michaels 🙂
@@StandleyHandcrafted ahhh ok thanks!
Is it ok to use that wax again ?
How to remove scent from the pitcher?
Have you ever tried mica as a colorant in candles?
Yes I have, short answer DONT DO IT. The Mica does not blend or dissolve in the wax thus you will get a chunk of your Mica sitting in the bottom of your candle (visible if you're using a glass jar) and you will run into wicking issues. Save yourself the trouble and get a set of candle block dyes from Amazon for $10 or use crayons (don't recommend), you can also use liquid candle dyes.
Mica is lovely in wax. Just stir it well.
How do you clean up after making gel candles??
It’s that easy?!?!? Google makes it look like HELL!
It didnt work for me. HELP!!!!!
What didnt work?
@@StandleyHandcrafted remelting excess an using dawn soap. Im new at this. Major Anxiety lol

@@jerzqueen8722 I just heat the pitcher up and wipe it out with paper towels.
