@@Lwflowers o
Great video ! Thanks
thx
Very nice video, and easy to follow.
What an amazing piece of wood leaning in the back, that's going to make a beautiful art piece of some kind.
Thank you. I made a front counter with one that turned out pretty nice.
Thank you
I use a stainless steel straw to place my wicks and have found this to be easy and accurate.
That's a great idea!
Can I use soy wax, and how many cups of fragrance oil for 12- 8oz jars. Please make more videos. Thank you.
I’m new to candles and how to measure the fragrance, do you recommend a book for me to help me from start to end. Amazing video thank you
Just use a scale. Pretty inexpensive at walmart
The fryer came with the The spout to pour out the wax or did you make it that way and how did you make it that way
I made it that way. Drilled a hole and used a 1/2 ball valve
I have seen all your videos and I love them I have learned a lot !! but I have a question if you do not mind ! how much fragrance should I put in a 4 0z bottle and soy wax 464
No more than 10%, so .40. What works best for me is I use 3 lbs wax and add 4.0 Oz of fragrance
Wax is a bomb?? Wow.
I guess on high heat any oil would be.
What was the temperature when you added fragrance and when you poured into the containers?
150 to 160well below the flash point but just before it starts to set up
any updates on posting new videos working with this wax i switch wax from 464 to igi 6006 so far so good is amazing but i will like to see more videos for this wax
I will sill see if I can do a video tomorrow, I am testing some wicks and wax. doing a wick test.
Use a empty pen tube instead of that stick.
What temperature did you pour your wax I did see some bubbles in your wax when you were pouring maybe that caused a sinkhole or maybe The temperature that you poured could’ve been that but this is a great video for beginners like myself you explained really well what you were doing and as a beginner I was taking notes thank you for making this video it will help out a lot of beginners in candlemaking
Please make more videos for beginners
I pour the wax about 150 + or minus. Usually not below 145 and not above 160.
Bubbles do not make the sink holes. That happens no matter what. You just go over them with a heat gun and done.
Thanks for the kind words. I pour aroundv150 deg. The bubbles are from stirring in tbevfragrance. They float to the top.
@@marikiemarie7622 yes. Right
What wick did you use with this soy and parrafin blend thanks
44-32-18.for the 4oz, and 8oz
51-36-18 for the 16oz
Interesting video you don’t have to stir your wax in the melting pot at all at any given point? Good job!
No, I just check thevtemp
How long have you been making candles?
making and wholesaling for 7 years
Great video and I love working with that wax..I have a question for 6 4oz jelly jars how much wax do I use and how much fragrance??
About 2 lbs wax, and 2 Oz fragrance
@@Lwflowers okay so 32oz of wax for 6 of my 4oz jelly jars and and 2oz fragrance oil is that right? If so thank you so much
@@philomenaking1176 about 3.2 roughly 10%
@@Lwflowers hello, can you please explain the math? Six 4oz jars equals 24oz.. how did you come up with needing 32oz of dry wax? Thanks in advance.
@@philomenaking1176 melt the wax and start there. Try 1.5 lbs and 2.5 or 2oz frag. Just think.you might be short
I need bigger bottles of oil..Where are yall getting them?
I currently have 4oz, and 16oz. What r u looking for? Cwapothecary.com
What size wick are you using in all three jars
The 4oa and 8oz I use 44-32-18 and the 16oz I use the 51-32-18
That stick is so laughably large I'm chucking thank you
How do you do your labels?
When ever needed
The concave effect has to do with the table. If you had a metal top table it will reduce the concave effect. Metal gets cold and it help the wax solidify from the bottom up. It’s been my experience.
I promote my candles as clean burning i use a 100% soy wax and a coconut soy blend. It sounds like people always have more success with using paraffin or blends of paraffin for better throws. And i am stuck between a rock and a hard place because my candles are being promoted as luxury CLEAN, with clean and healthy ingredients with out all the crap that they say is in paraffin.
He’s fun to watch, no fuss just right to the point, but that cord makes me nervous, looks like it’s going to get hot up next to the wall of the wax melter.
Thx for the comment. We do watch the cords. They are not very long.
@@Lwflowers 👍
Hello. I am a subscriber and thanks for sharing. What Soy waxes would you recommend and best wicks for canning jar candles 8oz.
I use the igi 6006 wax and the 44-32-18 wick for the 8oz jelly jar
@@Lwflowers great thanks. I watched again and seen that you did include that information.
@@LwflowersDo you sale The Igi 6006 Wax . Or what Brand. How can I get that?
@@tiffanyburroughs3724 yes, how many pounds are you looking g for
Maybe 10lbs to start or what's the lowest you sell? Looking for wicks to work with these 8oz jars as well. Not sure the diameter yet?
What wick are you using ?
44-32-18 cotton core for the 8 and 4oz, 51-36-18 for the 16oz candles
Is this machine suitable for paraffin wax?
IG 6006 is not the greatest for wax melts. Plus it's not mostly soy. It's 70% paraffin 30% soy. If you want a soy wax with a touch of paraffin there are tons out there like soy10 for example
I have used it for years. They don't break, or Crack and have never had a complaint
Misleading title to the video and product as well...IGI 6006 is not considered pure soy as stated in the video and any candle made with it isn't a soy candle...in fact, IGI 6006 is approximately 70% paraffin and 30% soy. You are cheating your customers if you say your candles are soy when they are not, and some people might want pure soy for health and/or environmental reasons. Also, a great example of what NOT to do when making candles.
We’re do you find pure soy ?
@@yeseniabalagtas8343 sorry for the super late response, but GW 464 is pretty close...the additives are also derived from Soy.
I found this video hard to follow.
Thank you
