    Here's a few sites for you to check out.

    Don't go to youtube unless you feel like wasting a lot of time.

    Ignore any electric mixer mentions, and use a heavy-duty whisk or large, heavy wooden spoon. DO NOT USE ANY PLASTIC MIXING UTENSILS-they have a very high chance of melting.

    Also, make sure you have a system set up for multiple people to work in shifts.

    I used a whisk. The thing is it took a helluva lot more effort, and like 7 of us had to take turns stirring.
