The best way to clean a candy wax machine is to scrape out as much wax as possible from the bowl and then wipe the remaining residue with a dry paper towel.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- Scrape out the excess wax: While the machine is still warm (but not hot enough to burn you or melt trash bags!), use a scraper or spatula (made of heat-resistant material like silicone) to remove as much of the wax as you can. Dispose of the scraped wax appropriately.
- Wipe with a paper towel: After scraping, use dry paper towels to wipe out any remaining wax residue from the bowl.
