I actually had better luck with butter scotch bourbon than any of the others. I am going to try either a CD or Eco wick. I think the wick is the issue from all my research.

What wick do you all think is best for 464 soy wax? Like I said, our candles are in 8 ounce jelly jars.

Thanks everyone. We are using Premier WI-765 wicks from the Flaming Candle. Is this the wrong wick to use?

We used 1.6 ounce/pound of wax, so 10% fragrance. We purchased all oils from The Flaming Candle and all were rated as being good for soy and paraffin waxes.

My brother and I have started making candles for our family store. We are using 464 soy wax. We have tried several scents (Butterscotch bourbon, apple cinnamon, lavender vanilla, lemon sugar cookie, and cashmere cedar). Of all the scents we have tried, Butterscotch bourbon is the only one we can smell when lit. We have followed directions on making them, so we are lost. We have added all scents at 185 degrees, and poured at 140 degrees. We are using 8 ounce jelly jars for them. Any idea what the issue might be? We are letting them cure now, but we would have thought we could smell them when lit at least some prior to curing.
