But let's start with beer. For this project you'll need:
- A glass beer mug
- Candle gel (I used Penreco's MD Gel - Medium Density)
- Standard paraffin wax (I used IGI 1343, but pretty much any pillar or votive wax will do - I wouldn't use container wax)
- An appropriate wick - I used a 51-32-18z in this 3" container - some companies make wicks specially made for gel. Because gel melts slower than wax, you may need to use a larger wick that you would in a paraffin candle. Start small, and test, test, test.
- Fragrance and/or color as desired
- A wire whisk
- Standard candle making equipment
- A basic understanding of candle making safety
