Candle Testing | 5 Candle Tests Every Candle Maker Should Perform
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2024
- Candle testing is very important. However, there are more candle tests, other than a standard candle safety test, to perform. I strongly believe every candle maker should perform 5 different candle tests before selling their candles. Those tests include a standard candle safety test largely based off of the ASTM standard candle safety test, a performance and aesthetics test, a power burn test, a situational candle test and a friends and family test. I thoroughly breakdown each candle test and the specific reasons behind those tests.

Martin Molohan from Geo Sustainable has an awesome playlist of candle testing videos that every candle maker should watch. Check out his UA-cam channel / geosustainable .
TBH, I'm here for the cast concrete and not the candle-making - but you definitely make the topic fascinating. I thought a candle was just a candle - but there's so much more to know!
Yes there is a ton that goes into it.
Those cookies sound delicious - seriously! Thanks so much for all the info!
They are delicious and they are healthy. My son is starting to love them too.
Superb video. So much rich and much needed information. So many people don't know this safety piece to candle making. Good job as always.
Thank you!!! Safety is paramount and it amazes me that there are so many who don't know or don't care... Or both!
I am using a wick dipper to extinguish the flame.
Well done Jai!!! This is one of the best candle test videos that I've seen!
Thank you so much Angel. That means so much coming from you. 🙏🙏🙏
EXCELLENT VIDEO JAI! Thanks for sharing! Not only super informative and helpful, but fun and intriguing and interesting from start to finish!
BEST VIDEO EVER 🙌🏻 Good job on this one! I loved it!
You are awesome. Thanks for an amazing comment. I truly appreciate it. 🙏
"Why would you turn something off that makes you feel great?" ..... and then the expression! Props to you :)
Aww thanks for noticing the detail that goes into the work.
Such an awesome video with great information. I'm in Canada, so some things are different, but these tests are still great to do!
Thanks for such an awesome response. Love it.
Thank you for this very very informative video
Awww glad you found value in it. I truly appreciate it.

BAH!!!! I'm so frustrated with testing! It's gonna kill me. My candle performed perfectly through the four hour tests but power burns were way too hot (like 200 degrees). I have wicked down twice and after 10 hours the jar is above 140. I want to cry. So many different opinions about power burns and their goals but I do NOT want to be responsible for a fire.
Unfortunately most use higher temperatures to justify their jar temperature. Think of your loved ones and how you would feel if they were holding an extremely hot jar. Testing is not for the faint of heart but what a huge accomplishment it is once you get it.
What is the best type of candle wick to use when making your own candles?
I break it down in this video. ua-cam.com/video/LHEsL0WWD_0/v-deo.html
Hi Jai. The temperatures quoted in test 1, were the in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius?
Fahrenheit
@@upvibecandle thank you
Thank you for this video. It has been extremely enlightening.
I do have a question tho.....is your flame never supposed to move, flicker, or dance?? If it does.....is that a fail and if it isn't a fail.....how can they be corrected? Like what does a dancing flame mean?
In a newly burned candle a flame will flicker because of a draft, the wick is too large or it's not the right wick type. Half way down the jar a flame dances because there is much less air and so that is ok. If it soots then you need to make adjustments. Hope that helps.
@UP Vibe Candle OMG Thank you so much. I am super brand new to this and I am currently testing. My flame dances once further down the candle and I didn't know why. It didn't do it in the beginning, and there was no draft. I have been so perplexed, but thank you for this video and for being so kind to respond.
@@teannahairston5729 You are very welcome.
In your opinion, is a little soot around the rim ok after a power burn? Well after the initial 4 hours. And if the candle doesn’t soot during regular 4 hr burns
I think you have to make an educated decision based off of the reason the soot is happening and how much is happening. All candles will soot if the flame is disturbed. In addition the lower the flame goes down the jar the less oxygen there is... that in turn will create a dancing flame which might soot. You might want to test a few times to see how it reacts and then make a final decision. Again a little soot is normal and should not be a problem.
@@upvibecandle great, thank you!
