The one with the perfect melt pool was in the center, catching residual heat from the two next to it. I've had this happened several times when I've tested them that close together (tin and glass). You'll also notice the small amount of wax not melted yet is nearly always on the colder side of the jars.
Try spacing them out a foot apart next time. ;)
I tend to test mine through the whole night. I test it on a granite top with insulated bottom with tile floors, etc. AND, I get up at least twice a night (for other reasons.) If I get a full good melt pool, I will cool it, trim the wick and the relight it. HOWEVER, I just saw your video pointing out that you knock off the crusting while letting it burn. I am going to try that. I have watched many candle making vids over the last two years. YOURS are the most helpful. The cut right to the heart of the issues.
Wicks have been a pain in my ass since the start. I ended up settling with Ribbon wicks from Northwood. By far the best experience next to wood wicks in my opinion.
Great video and music thanks for sharing
I found my answer. I asked on one of the videos in regards to the Scent thro.
Ok good. :D
I think it makes a big difference when the candles are so close to each other.
if it is possible, could you let me know how to make candle wicks without being pulled down when candles melting and candle wicks absorbed wax ???? Thanks a lot !
Thank you sir
Is HTP104 better for Hot throw than CD12 wicks? I uses Golden 464 wax in 9 oz straight sided jars
From everything I’ve seen and read, would these not fall into the category of “large dancing” flames that you don’t want? Or were the flame heights and size ok?
Do all htp wicks bounce around like that? I cant find one that doesn't.
I love your vids
Hi Jeff, I’ve been testing my Golden Wax 464 scented candle over the last week as I’m just about launch my website and as you and Wade say test test test. Today was the longest I had 5 candles burning. Started with 2 Hrs, 3 hrs, 4 hrs, 6 hrs, 8 hrs and today 12 hours. All performed brilliantly. Jars did not get too hot, except for one which was Vanilla. Vanilla also had soot on one side big time and the HTP wick 126 was leaning on the side instead of standing straight. That side had lot of soot. I assume it’s Vanilla FO which is a heavy oil and made the jar hotter and flame larger than the others. New Vanilla batch I made today I wicked down, hoping for smaller flame and less soot. Am I correct in my assumptions? Sue Australia
Hi What wick series do you recommend with 6006 wax? Thanks Henrietta
I have tried the 6006 wax with eco 4 wick in the jelly jars but I am expecting smoking around the rim of the glass whenever the candle reaches half way…..I do trim my wick before every burn and the wicks were recommended by candle science….any advice on how to fix my smoking problem?
Candlescience doesnt sell htp wicks anymore - can you suggest a replacement?
Does CD & Eco wicks play nice with 6006? Got some 6006 delivered today and I am anxious to try it.
In a 4oz jar what size of wick I should use
Those flames are huge. What size did you trim the wick? 1/4 of an inch?
Hey
Most of the suppliers tell you to wick down to stop mushrooming. What’s confusing is your smaller wicks are mushrooming. It’s the complete opposite.
Hey! Why htp wicks for sure with this wax and not lx or cd? I thought htp was better for soy!
what can be done to prevent the mushrooming though?
I’m trying to find the pt2 for this video. Which wick did the best with fragrance?
Is a melt pool a bad thing?
What is the diameter of these jars?
What about soot? Is there any soot?
I notice that looking through a bag of say, HTP 104 wicks, there is a lot of variability in size even though they are supposed to be the same
That definitely explains why I'm having issues. I received a bag of 104 from EAP and the wicks came right out of the base/tabs.
Does anyone know if you need to wick up much more for IGI 6006? It's my first time using parasoy and my usual wick size for soy keeps drowning out. Trying to 3 wick a jar
It’s all different depending on the wick type. I would definitely wick up and check the melt pool.
How hot is the glass?
Hi Jeff i have been testing wicks in plain wax with no FO when i have found the correct wick and then test with a fragrance do i wick up or wick down does fragrance make it burn hotter or cooler?
Test burning with fragrance will definitely alter the flame so you may have to wick down depending on the vessel you’re using.
What’s mushrooming?
I also saw someone mention in another one of your videos the flame dancing, what’s the importance in this? Newbie here.
That's when the tip of the wicks starts to puff up, or bloom, or get balled up like you see in the video.
Flames flickering is significant because it means there is a lot of heat. An over-wicked candle will flicker constantly and generate too much heat. This can cause all kinds of different problems.
Sara Fenning thank you. I see I still have a bunch to learn.
Can you send me the size of wick you use in each difren size of jars and the amount of oil you put pls
Can you test the igi 4633 wax?
I will see if I can get some for review.
Not to be slow but what does HTP mean 😬
I still don't know
I believe it means.. high temperature something 😄
@@heartforchrist7004 it means Hot Throw. like how strong the scent of the candle is while lit
HTP wicks are a kind of wick. There's CDN wicks, wood wicks, eco wicks, HTP wicks, etc .
Were these 8oz jars? I got 9oz and can’t find what size wick to use.
Are you using IGI6006? If so, try LX16 wicks. I'm actually testing IGI 6006 with 8% fragrance load in a 9 oz jar with LX16 as I'm typing this. Two hours in and the hit throw is incredible and melt pool is not quite to full melt. Virtually no mushrooming at this point.
I just switched my wax from 464 to IGI 6006. I use candle tins in 6oz and 8oz sizes. What wicks do you recommend for the candle tins? Thanks 😊
Hi... can you share which wicks did you use? TIA
???💜
@@michellezaaiiaas1570 did you ever find a wick size ?
@@nicki8062 I am all over the place and still testing. 8oz tins with 6006 I've tried CD 7, htp 62, premier 780 and wooden wick .03 .375. Want to make a perfect candle and I don't know if that's even possible. 🤦🏻♀️
@@michellezaaiiaas1570 thank you soooo much. Finding the wick has to be the most challenging part lol
I totally understand about the concept of wick size and burn ratio. However,..as a DIY person,..I would rather know from your experience what the best wick is for candle size than having to spend money ant time experimenting
Do LX work well with 6006?
Yes!
Is there a chart for beginners show wick size per oz, jars??
Candle science has a wick guide on their website.
I'm doing this right now as well with 104 & 83💪🏾🤔
There should be a much more noticeable difference between those two wicks with fragrance oil added. :)
@@StandleyHandcrafted I'm burning them today. Let them cure a couple days to check hot throw using cooler pour method as well
Burning the 83 & and 104 wicks with fragrance and mica powder color.
Started at 6:30 and now I barely have a pool almost 3hrs later✔
No mushroom wick✔
Will update and see if fragrance lasts longer with the cooler pour . So far, so good
@@RacqualChanel , I love using Mica in candle wax but when it comes to candles if you use a lot of mica it will clog the wick.
Racqual Chanel update ?!😁
I think they sell a lot of wicks per jar size to make money 🤑
how do i prevent soot?
A little bit less oil can solve it sometimes and also a different type of wick or a smaller wick.
@@StandleyHandcrafted ok thanks what about wicking down im using premier 745 for 9oz using 6006
😁
The candles are too close together and they were heating each other up
Sioux Falls Not much of a factor.
