This simple trick will get your bees to work their frames and build them up faster than ever. Fresh wax is key in building out your frames.

I see that this video is a little old but I Had to comment on something you said . I would not put water in with your wax . Using that cooker you do not need water in the top tray . Thanks

I thought it would work better as a double boiler instead of just straight heat. Thanks for letting me know!

@@TheHunterGatherer that is your double boiler with the water down below . The crockpot is heating your water an your hot water is heating your top pan . But yes if you have dirty nasty wax an you are trying to clean it up then you put water in the top pan with your wax so the trash an your dirty water will say on the bottom after it cools because your clean wax will float to the top. But yes to just to heat wax for like what you are doing there you do not need water in the top pan because the hot water below is heating your top pan with your wax in it . Hope this helps .

What was wrong with your old plastic foundation that you replace it ?

The wax didn't want to stay on the frame. A lot of the I cleaned all enough to use. I think if I had a pressure washer I could've used it to get the old cocoon off of them.

I think they were $115 delivered for a 100 count of extra wax frames.

Any follow ups to show this worked?

There are a few videos of inspections where you can see the frames with the wax on them were built up faster. Some frames didn't have the extra wax covering completely and the bees drew out the extra waxed areas first.
