If I need to use a small amount, and need it to be "softer", I just put it in the microwave for a short time.

    I had very good results making a carnuaba bar similar to beeswax and got just what I wanted to apply on the lathe. Took a lot of trial and error but I just melted carnuaba and slowly added mineral oil using micro wave oven. Had to go through it about 4 times but finally have just the right hardness and consistancy for my needs. Have no idea the ratio but the rest of these posts went to soft wax for cutting boards.
