I can't imagine that being as effective as a crockpot. Hot water is going to leave dirt on the chain and the drip rewaxing isn't going to penetrate as well as the cooking (plus you miss the best bit, which is scraping the dirt off the wax puck).
But you are in a shared flat so that's fair enough. My missus just deals with weird shit I do.

I've been thinking recently about cleaning the wax I've been using. How easy is it to get the puck out of the pot? I tried halfheartedly one time when it was dry and it wasn't budging. I read a suggestion online about pouring in some water when it's melted. The theory is that the grime settles down in the water and the puck of wax cools on top. Haven't tried yet though. Also, I added a powder of additives to my wax when I started. Is there any risk that I'll be scraping that away too? Maybe I'm over thinking it...

I don't have a crock pot or any of that other stuff, I live in a shared flat with 3 others.
When the chain gets dirty I'll pour a kettle of boiled water over the chain and drip on some wax from a tube. No need to repeat the melting process as I understand it.
