Perhaps the wax is brought to a higher temperature and held
there?

Reply:
Yes it is in water bath, and after holding for several
hours it is pressed out (10-12 hours minimum holding temp
after jacking to high heat for about 12-15 minutes or so
before backing off heat and holding), but it gets the job
done and much comb wax saved. Also it is a good way to
process slumgum and save much wax left from inefficient
solar wax melters (50% not uncommon salvaged from slumgum).
Walter T. Kelly still sells the wax presses for this
purpose by the way and they are not really hard to use.
