Tested a candle at 7% FO with 464 and Eco 10 wick.  Cured for 1 week . I’m using 1/2 pint (8 oz) mason jars and getting absolutely no hot throw. Adding fragrance at 185, stirring 2 minutes and pouring around 135. This is frustrating! What am I doing wrong?!

I will have to give that a try! Thank you!

Between 2.5” and 3”

I use GB 464 soy wax and I can never get good hot throw. I heat to 185 and add FO, stir for 2 minutes, pour at 130/135. I am using the max FO at 12%. I have tested with ECO 8 and ECO 10. 10 seems too big (flickering flame and black smoke occasionally) while the 8 seems to not burn all the way across! I need any and all advice. Thanks.
