Hi everyone! So I have been experimenting with wooden woods as i would like to make wooden wick candles. I know there are regular wicks and booster, & I've seen some people use both. Does anyone have any guidance in regards to wooden wicks, I feel like there's not much information. Thank you in advance!

Hey everyone! For wax blends of soy/coconut, is the cure time still 2 weeks? It's been inconvenient for testing considering I am testing hot throw and wicks. Any tips/recommendations? Thanks!

Thank you, TallTayl! Do you know anything about Coconut 2 on that site as well?

Hi everyone! I recently began experimenting in the candle making business and I am having issues with a new wax that I just got. I started out with soy 464 but for some reason I could not get a decent outcome. I bought coconut wax and would mix both waxes 50/50 and they looked nice when they were done. I burned a few right away with wooden wicks and it burned well. I am curing a few hoping it will improve the hot throw (i think, let's see). I have been trying a few different things and I recently purchased Cargill's NatureWax S-113 Soy and Cargill's NatureWax Coconut 1. The coconut wax had a consistency of coconut oil in a solid state. I didn't think much of it and proceeded to do what I usually do by doing 50/50. End result, the candle never hardened. I made it about 12 hours ago and it is just slushy. Any ideas on what this could be or advice on what I can try? Thank you all in advance.
