Beesworks Yellow Beeswax Pellets (1 lb)

Love this product so versatile, great color

I've purchased multiple times. Should speak volumes. Works well for my products.

very healthy, product i highly recomend this item

I bought this for a slightly non-conventional use - Coffee grounds fire starters. That may sound odd, but it actually works quite well. I use even parts of wax pellets and coffee grounds. Melt the wax in any type of double boiler (I used a smaller pot inside a larger pot filled (partially) with water. After the double boiler heats up, it takes about 10 minutes to melt the wax. Mix 1/3 cup molasses and the coffee grounds, and then pour into whatever form you have. I bought some soap making forms so I could make slightly larger pucks. Allow to cool and then wrap in wax paper for storage. Burn time for this size puck is about 45 minutes and smells great (if you like coffee.) I hear the coffee grounds are also great for insect repellent. Once my project was done, I cleaned the melting pot with simple paper towel. It was a pretty easy cleanup process, just make sure you do this while the pot is still warm. (Don't do this when the pot is HOT; no need to risk a burn.) When cooled, the pucks came out of the molds clean and in one piece. They were solid, and not at all sticky to the touch. The pucks themselves were perfectly formed and solid. For me, the finish product is pretty much coffee color, so I can't directly speak to the look of the wax for more traditional candle making or similar crafts. The wax has a distinct smell while melting, so do this in a well ventilated area if you don't want your house smelling like wax. I prefer this to paraffin wax. Pound for pound, this will be a bit more expensive than paraffin, but it is a natural option and worked well for my project. I won't be making these by the dozen (although goodness knows I drink enough coffee to do so...) This will be my go-to wax when I am ready to make more.

Purchased before I realized I should order jojoba oil to make beeswax wraps. Small size makes for quick melting, the color is bright yellow and seems to be of good quality. Adhesion is supposed to improve with the addition of oil from what I've been reading online. Good value, these were the least expensive quality wax beads that I could find.

I read so much on many different brands of beeswax about the unpleasant smells that I was concerned but gave the Beesworks pellets a try. Yes it has a odor. But guess what, not 2 days after using the Beesworks wax, we harvesting an abandoned bee hive that took over a squirrel box in our back yard....GUESS WHAT! The inside of the squirrel box was filled with honeycomb smelled exactly like the Beesworks wax pellets.......and I mean EXACTLY even in it natural state (see picture) in the box. Its somewhat of a neutral smell and one I cannot place from memory. My wife says it smells like wax. I used the Beesworks wax to combine with mineral oil to make a lotion for cutting boards. This beeswax is stated to be cosmetic grade which does not mean food preparation safe but as it is used to make lip balm I feel safe that any minute residue picked up from a cutting board is certainly less then one consumes when applying directly to the lips. The small beans of wax make it easy to measure out and it melts quickly. To make cutting board lotion, it was suggested a ratio of 4 parts food safe mineral oil to 1 part beeswax but I found that 6 to 1 was a better consistency for me and allowed it to be used with a bottle with a finger pump. Heated in a jar placed in simmering water the beeswax melted quickly and combined entirely with the mineral oil. While hot the wax oil mix was completely clean and clear, no debris was visible in the liquid and when cooled made a mildly yellow opaque lotion (see picture). AFter applied to the wood, I did not smell the same odor as when opening the bag. The concoction does not absorb completely into the wood cutting board and leaves a film unlike just pure mineral oil. I think I will experiment with even more dilutions of the beeswax as im not happy with the film the 6:1 concoction leaves and perhaps even add some lemon scent to it.

Good quality

So I know a lot of ppl wanna make homemade Sunscreen, so I'll talk about it here too. This was adds no color to the sunscreen. I use 11tbspn coconut oil, 2.75-3.5tbspn wax, 10tsp non-nano zinc oxide, 1/8 tsp almond extract, and 1/4 tsp coconut extract. Everything needs to be mixed very well, so it takes hours to make it, it has a light scent, but it's washed out by the extracts. It's actually fine to make sunscreen, it's something so simple and innocent. I suspect that the wax would work for candles, so it's versatile. It's cheap for the amount. Even in summer, it didn't melt together in the bag by accident.

Nice firm and clean product.
