Make sure to heat the epoxy real well so it’s nice and runny or else the air bubbles won’t rise to the surface as well

Yes, and if you plan on using epoxy more in future projects, a vacuum chamber is a great investment.  Particularly if you also want to make marshmallows expand, or water boil at room temp.
