You can use a different oil like olive.

I don’t mind the gelling. I put it in a 4 oz squeeze bottle and it comes out like toothpaste when cold.

I believe that's the case with mine. Or other than adding more essence to it when I catch a skunk i don't handle it much in the winter but I don th ever remember it gelling up.

If you don't want it to gel up add a little glycol or glycerin. Or keep it inside until your ready to use it. Yes sir, are you using it as an LDC or right at the hole? 50/50 seems like it would still be pretty stout. I use a weaker ratio when I mix essence to peanut oil that I'm going to use for bait. Lures I just use straight, but only tiny amounts at a time until I get the desired level.

I find 1 oz. of good clean quill and 15 oz. of peanut oil is plenty strong... and I use it as an "away from the set" call lure... doesn't take much for canines to pick it up. I use 1" pieces of dollar store sponge preloaded at home eliminating any gelling problems...
