Joe, I’ve used dead on floating jerk bait and worm blends without any issues. I just shake the gallon jug for a bit before pouring in Pyrex. the only other thing I can think that I do that might be different is that when I stir the plastic in between microwave intervals while trying to get it up to temp, I make sure that my stirring stick is reaching the bottom of the cup and then coming back up, basically to make sure the stuff at the bottom comes up and cooks evenly. this is the same way I cook any plastic. Not a special technique for deadon by the way. only other thing I can think of is that maybe your thermometer isn’t accurate and your not actually reaching 350? I say that because I 100% of the time see the plastic “turn over” from a gelatinous phase back into a liquid form. hope that helps

Yes I have! Microwaveable as well! i used a standard Pyrex cup and then got some scrap ceramic glass from a glass shop near by and cut it myself to fit in the cup using a template I made from cardboard. The ceramic glass I used was leftover from the glass shop making a replacement window for a wood stove. i made one with high-temp silicone to adhere it to the Pyrex cup and another I made with JB weld. i have used them both several times without issue. one word of caution would be that the ceramic glass that I used is not 100% microwave safe. I did some testing and found that as long as there was plastic in the cup, the ceramic glass did not react to the microwaves. I ran a test with the cups empty in the microwave and found that the Pyrex glass did not get warm but the ceramic glass did get just a little warm. And I mean a LITTLE. I have put glass in the microwave before to see if it was microwave safe and glass that is not gets HOT and cracks. This did NOT happen with the ceramic glass. It just got a little warm. I have been using them cautiously for about a month and haven’t had any trouble.

I have no issues with deadon. I make sure it’s a consistent 350 throughout the whole cup. Meaning, once I see 350 on the thermometer, I stir it and take another reading, throw it in the microwave again and stir again. I make sure I can see 350 after stirring. That way I know the whole cup was cooked. No sticky baits, works super well
