Just want to add a little something. Allot of people claim that soy wax is completely petroleum free and a complete renewable resource. What they don't take into account is the farm equipment(diesel) needed to harvest the soy beans and the energy (coal) used to refine it, so actually there is a large amount of fossil fuel needed to make soy wax. Soybean oil can actually be made into a fuel to run our cars but due to what I mentioned above it takes more fossil fuel to produce than they actually would get from the soy. Same thing with corn. Hey I just had a thought, why don't they make corn wax? They make ethanol alcohol from it.

Lemme guess, they burned the purple one first. And of course the "cured" one would have a better cold throw as I mentioned in my previous post.

By throw I assume you mean hot throw. How did you go about ruling out "candle nose"? To do this you would need someone else to make the candles in a different location besides your house. Make one candle then let it sit for 3 weeks and then make another and bring them both over to you without you knowing which one was what. And then you would have to light both of them at the same time in different rooms of equal size at separate locations in your house. Even then the one you smelled first would seem stronger.

Curing is a myth. But if you really just like taking up valuable shelf space and holding back your production time, then I say let em cure. Edit to add: The one benefit you get from letting candles sit for a few weeks with the lids on is the fo builds up under the lid a little more which would make the cold throw stronger.
