I do a double boiler by using an old washed out very large tin can in a sauce pan filled with water. Get the water simmering and check frequently. Don't overfill the can with wax as you want to be able to lift it out with a pot holder. An be sure the saucepan handle is away from you. Make sure no kids are around this is burning hot. -

All answers are great. But what have you come up with for using the old wax. Make new candles?You could also use them for batik art or tie dying.
