So I made my wax melts using Golden was soy 494 and they came out all crumbly. I used 192 g of wax with 15 g of fragrance. I heated to 180 f and added the fragrance at 140 before pouring. The smell is great but its just brittle. How can I fix this. Shoul

d I remelt and repour?
 
Interesting. I would remelt and pour a little warmer. There seem to be a lot of air pockets in the wax. Did you use a whisk? If so, don't do that :) Or, is there a chance you cooked your wax? In other words, did you leave it on for a long time?

Oh, and I should also say that 464 is a softer wax and depending on the mold you may have trouble getting it out. I personally prefer 416 for melts. I am really loving the M-100.
