How do you bees wax the inside of a Rum Keg or horn when its finished ...thanks , Jeff

I just melt a decent amount of bw and pour it in. Keep moving it around to coat all areas, then pour out whats not needed. May do it a few times on some that need more sealing.

I'll pre-heat the item first in the oven,
Top rack with foil,
Oven on 200 or lower with the door propped open a bit with a spoon or something,
I want it warm enough to just barely hold in my hands, 160-180.
I want the wax pretty hot too, I want a thin coating not a thick clump that breaks off later,

I just warm the entire horn with my heat gun and pour melted bee's wax in, put in stopper, shake the horn around a bit and pour excess out.

Sometimes I use Brewer's Pitch also!

Not to highjack this thread, but do you seal all your horns?
