Is it actually a powder, or is it paste like? I haven't seen a description of it online yet, and wanted to make sure some is legit.

10 grams, it is a smaller ziplock bag than it probably looks in the picture. The bag is only about 3 inches wide.

the winny i have is a very soft and white powder, its similar to flour. it should melt at about 450-470 f. oven temps vary ALOT. my winny turned carmel color and melted at about 400 f. i used 2 diff oven thermometers, so i think it was somewhat accurate, but i wouldnt be suprised if my readings were 20-30degrees off. when the oven cycles on the air temp rises faster than the thermometer reads.
so my powder prob wasnt pure, or it wouldnt have melted at such a low temp. but close enough i guess.

bass i think we had the same powder cards for winny, that might have been why you had such trouble getting it inot oil, cause of the purity.

Looks the same as what I received, mine kind of clings to the inside of the bag. Works well with Basskiller's oil conversion.

SC I looked up a melting point in the Merck and it should melt around 230-240degrees Mine melted into solution at 235 I was checking with a good glass candy thermo so it shouold be fairly accurate.
