Soaper's Choice Tallow

[DVill#109]

Hey everyone,

I recently got two 7lb bottles of Tallow from Soaper's Choice.

My question is, how do I get the tallow out the container? I can't pour it out easily. Should. I use a hairdryer or poue hot water on the bottle until the tallow inside melts?

Thanks.

You can cut the bottle and scoop it out into another container that is more accessible or sit the bottle in a bucket and add boiling water around it until it starts melting, then tip out what you need, the only trouble with that is every time you need some that's what you'll have to do

I set the bottle on a trivet in a large pot of water and heat on the stove until the tallow is all melted, then pour it into a bucket with a lid. It doesn't take too long, but I really wish SC would change the packaging so this extra step isn't necessary. I'm sure they continue to sell it this way because of economy in shipping, but it is a PITA.
