Moldy harvested wax

by KBee <kellie@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Nov 14, 2007 at 10:33 AM

Hi,

I'm looking for advice on why my harvested wax has mold on it?  The
mold is greenish/blackish and white.  And, how to save it- is it still
usable?  very disappointing even though I don't have much.

Here's how it was cleaned:
The wax was left over cappings from harvest.
I washed and washed and washed it in water until the water was clear.
I (thought I had) let it dry fully by gently tossing it with a fork
while it was in a strainer after wa****ng.
Then, I melted it down in a double boiler and then strained it through
cheesecloth into a clean plastic container.
It's been stored in the plastic container w/lid since.
Probably did all this end of September.

Thanks in advance for any help/advice,
KBee/Kellie
