For best results: use a Mortar and Pestle to grind all incense resins before use. OR, put resins into a freezer plastic bag, use something heavy like a hammer to crush resins.
We prefer to grind into small pieces like kosher salt and no bigger than a pea, some will be powder like and that is fine.
You can use any tealight candle with 4-8 hours of burn time. Use scissors to trim 1/8 of the wick and straighten it out before lighting it.
When attaching the wire to the glass jar, tighten the clamp until it holds steady, but can be adjusted by hand.
The height is adjustable, so you can move the bowl holder aside, and even away from the flame completely. You can adjust the height depending on the type of incense you are burning, but you must keep the flame lower than the rim of the jar.
To remove used incense from the bowl, place the used bowl (cool down) in a freezer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it is hardened. Then, pry out the hardened incense with a flathead screwdriver or similar tool.
Do not handle hot incense bowl; burn risk.
