Plug sink, pour boiling water over. Swish it around a bit. Burn fingers reaching for the plug when my short-term memory elapses after about 10 seconds.
I really wouldn't want to flush wax through my kitchen drain.
I'd rather chuck it in a plastic container and discard the solidified wax when it's cooled off.
Lovely, thanks. Do you put water in a pan over the hob etc., or just put boiled water in a container with the chain?
