Log Inoculation Sealing Wax
Features | Food grade; low melting point |
This clear food-grade paraffin wax is ideal for sealing holes in inoculated logs. One pound of wax is enough to seal about 10 logs with some variability, depending on the size of the logs and whether you choose to seal the ends. (Sealing the holes is critical to success because it protects the spawn from drying out and from contamination.)
If inoculating logs in fall and applying wax in temps below 50 degrees F, daubers and wax will harden quickly. Therefore, we recommend a plugged-in crock pot (vs. a pot taken from the stove) for dipping.
Optional add-ons:
Please note that 50 lb. bags of wax are not eligible for free shipping.

Clean and easy
I used the double boiler method as instructed with low heat. It melted completely and fast. It covered all one-hundred shiitake plugs, the log ends, and a few cutoff branch sites, as well. I didn't even use half of the bag! All around win.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us, Daniel! Can't wait till you get to eat some shiitakes!
Easy-to-use wax granules
The title says it all. Granules melt much more quickly and smoothly than paraffin wax blocks. The 1lb bag I purchased will last for a while but I’ll be back to re-up when the need arrises.
