<p>Good Morning! I was thinking about putting my tea cozy on it. Never used it on the teapot but it might be perfect for the top if you say that is the right thing. So it's not too hot right now?</p>

<p>that's a good sign! i would continue to cycle it a few times. let it cool until the wax is solid, then turn it back on for 8-12 hours or so. have fun with it.</p>

<p>If you have space, try keeping it in a smaller draft free room for a little while until it starts behaving. I know my bathrooms and laundry room tend to stay warmer than the rest of the house or maybe try in a spot surrounded by furniture that would break up any direct drafts at it.</p>

<p>This had not started flowing good at this point. 90's and windy, never got a great flow going. Drafts DO make a difference.</p>

<p>Well I have yet to see it with a nice pool of tidy wax in the bottom. The closest I've seen was the vigorous corpules thing. Went to the top and bottom but with small globs, maybe one inch accross. The bursting blister bubbles the next day really freaked me out. Most of the wax stays in the bottom no matter what.</p>

<p>Oh wow, ok that helps me feel better Keith and Gwen. If it hasn't been run correctly for a long time then this may explain all the weirdness. I will leave it on all night and hope for the best. Hopefully I will be posting pictures soon of it running like a dream......</p>
