amy91 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hey all, I have been on this journey for a few months. I have already learned so much and I'm feeling super happy with how far I have come, I just want nice candles for my home and to gift to friends! So I use C3, I'm using 8oz tins currently, and use CD wicks. I finally have a few scents I have perfected (no tunnel, great hot throw, and so on.) Unfortunately I'm noticing that at the end of the candle whether I trim the wick or not, the wick goes out and leaves about 1/4" of wax or so. Is this normal? (Nube here please forgive me.) I could take pictures too if anyone would like to take a peak. Hoping to figure this out, I know there are lots of helpful people on here. Thanks for your time, have a great day.

TallTayl Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 The neck of the wick tab has this as a built in safety feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yep as TallTayl said, it's normal, and makes the candle safer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
