Introducing the VViViD wax thermometer, a helpful tool that makes candle-making safe and fun! For candles that look great, and smell heavenly, it's critical to measure the temperature of the wax at 3 stages: Firstly, at the start to make sure you're not overheating / scorching the wax. Secondly, just before adding the fragrance oil to make sure the wax is below the fragrance oil's flash-point temperature, so that the scent isn't ruined. And thirdly, just before pouring the wax, to make sure it's at the correct temperature to pour. These temperatures will vary according to the type of wax, and the type of fragrance oil you are using. Fortunately, the VViViD wax thermometer allows precision measurements from 75° to 400°F / 25° to 200°C, unlike many wax / cooking thermometers which only measure from 100°F and up. This wax thermometer is not only ideal for candle-making, but also makes a fantastic candy and deep-fry thermometer, complete with a built-in cooking temperature guide for your favorite foods! Use the built-in steel clip to attach the thermometer to the wax melting pot, sauce-pan, or deep-fryer for hands-free measurements. The heat-resistant red ball on the handle makes it easy to move the thermometer without injury. Store the thermometer in the hard plastic sleeve (provided) to prevent damage in storage or transit. Enjoy your candle-making adventure, with the VViViD wax thermometer 🌟🕯️ CONTENTS: 1 x thermometer and 1 x protective sheath
