I feel a lot more comfortable with an aluminum pot that an Engineer has looked at with intended purpose in mind and sold by a company that doesn’t want a pile of lawsuits.

Get in your car. Drive to Cinnabon. Pay them their price.
Had to do it. I’m sure someone will be here with a real recipe shortly. :)
I don’t know how it is in your neighborhood, but around here you get funny looks at the restaurant when you lay a 12 bore across the table. [smilie=l:

I’ve read threads on previous efforts and one pitfall was the spout freezing. Give some thought to diverting a little heat to it.

Sounds like one I got in a lot purchase. The simple strap handle is riveted to a cast bowl. I don’t find a lot of use for it. Too small for ingots, too big for pouring molds. The post above about use...

The proper term for the stemmed bowl is a “compote."

Nothing wrong with your system. However, only a third of the used molds I’ve bought came with the factory box, and none of those that did would go back in the box with handles on them.

I don’t see any mechanism in an EMP pulse to mass detonate primers in their factory packaging.

You can repurpose one of those daily bread plates to hold a wet sponge for mold cooling though. I’ve gotten several of them in lots I’ve bought. They are near perfect in that role.
I believe that a good percentage of the guns out there still have 40 left in the first box of 50 that was bought with them. Enthusiasts of the sort that populate gun boards aren’t very common.
