Q: What are the two temperatures in Farenheit and are they consistent?

Using my chocolate thermometer, I can say about 142 on high and about 114 on warm. Very consistent. Actually the consistency in temperatures is better than I thought it would be.

Q: Has anyone tried using this for melt & pour soap?

I purchased it for Melt & Pour soap. If you intend to try it for that purpose; Don't do it. To be fair, it will melt the soap but it takes tooo long. It took more than a half hour to do it. I'm working with children and I hoped it would melt quickly but it doesn't. Children's attention spans are short and this takes too long. They will get frustrated and fidgety. Use the microwave or other methods. Unless you like waiting and waiting.

Q: Can you use this to melt wax for candle making?

As a test I melted a small handful of soy wax uncovered for a good while 30m? and eventually it got up to 194F on the bottom. Adding more wax drops the temperature down but it goes back up. I switched it to Warm at 194 because that's well past my needs. Warm brought it down to 150 or so but I think it might drop even more so it's hard to predict. I tried a foil cover and it brought it up to 190F real fast which to me means that would need to be actively watched so you don't burn it. Switching from warm to melt, a 2oz soy block melted uncovered in 15m.

Q: Will it melt real chocolate. Dipping chocholate? I assume so.

Hi Robin:There are two "on" settings, one is "melt" and the other is "warm", although they are not labeled (the furthest to the right is the higher of the settings). The chips actually melt faster than you think on "melt". The key is not letting it get too hot. When the chips start to look a little shiny on top, they are melted beneath that layer. A good thermometer will help you keep an eye on the temperature, which you really don't want much above 100. As soon as I'm sure it's about 75% melted, I take it off the heat, put the silicone container on the counter and stir it with a wooden spoon until the mixture is almost smooth, then add 1/4-1/3 more volume of chocolate as "seed" chocolate to help bring down the temp more quickly and shorten your hardening time. When your chocolate gets below 88 degrees on a reliable thermometer, and the chocolate is all a smooth consistency, you will be surprised at how quickly it cools to a hard and shiny coat on whatever you're applying it to.The last couple of times I did it (practice makes you very proficient), my results were absolutely perfect. No bloom, and hard shiny chocolate coating. I really recommend the long glass thermometer for monitoring your temperature. Good luck!

Chocolate

I have to say I always have seen this product getting promoted and I was like let me see if it’s worth the money. I love how sturdy it is, abs it work well just like how everyone else described it. I have to say it is a good product for the value of money that it’s being sold for. I love how I can use it for parties or non fires to melt chocolate for people to enjoy with fruits or marshmallows.

Good for cake pops.....

I know some reviews stated that this takes a while to heat up, but once it did heat up it never burned my candy melts and the consistency stayed perfect for the entire dipping process. The silicone pot insert is easy to clean once the melts re-harden. I've had no issues with this and I would buy it again especially because it was the most affordable at the time of purchase.

Se quebró

La compré el 23 de febrero (hace menos de 3 meses) y estaba encantada, derrite muy bien el chocolate y lo mantiene, incluso la recomendé y dos familiares más la compraron, pero justo hoy se quebró 😢 creo que lo caliente hizo que el plástico se "tueste" y cuando intenté sacarla de la base se desprendió lo de abajo en dos partes ☹️ Me gustaría saber si puedo volver a adquirir únicamente el inserto de silicon, sin tener que comprar toda la derretidora.
