Hi all, I spent this past weekend pouring soy container candles-my first time! I poured 10 different scents experimenting with 3 different soy waxes & two different wick types. They started out looking really great. Then while curing, I got air bubbles (taken care of with a heat gun), wet spots-some really big ones, and frosting on some. Why oh why can't they stay looking as pretty as when they are first poured?!? The main problem I have though is cracking, some of the wax has cracked all the way through. The cracks have anly appeared in the JS Soy & Superior Soy so far. I have also tried Cargil nature wax-no cracks there-just frosting & wet spots. The ones that are cracking also seem to not be adhering to the container. The is wax literally loose in the jar. I am heating to around 190, adding FO & dye around 175 then stirring & letting cool till slushy-around 110 then pouring into warmed jars. Does anybody else have this cracking problem? I was also wondering how long to cure before burning, I have heard everything from 24 hrs to a week. Also, do you normally cure with lids on or off? Thanks, Anne
