Default Conical Lube

I bought most of the stuff to make the lube Gatofeo mentions (2 parts paraffin, 2 parts mutton tallow, and 1 part beeswax) that I'll be using for the felt wads I'll be making.

Should I change up the ratios for lubing conicals? I live in Texas where it's hot all the way through fall. I'm not sure if it should be thicker.

I don't have a lube sizer setup.

I figured I would do as I've seen others do in which they stand the projectiles up in a small bowl/cup and allow them to cool in a pool of lube. Not sure how to get the excess off or if it's even a big deal.
