I'm a newbie to this forum as well to the candle making craft. I have bought the ecosoy advance. At first I was adding vybar only because I did not know any better. And of course the supplier was the one that told me this. But I have stop putting any additives in the wax other than a uv stabilzer. But My HT is still not that strong at all. I would love for it to be stronger. I use any were from 1.5oz per pond of wax to 2.0oz per pound. I have read other comment of people saying they get great HT with just 1oz per pound. I'm not really sure what I am doing wrong or if it is just the wax. Oh and the wicks I use are large size wood wicks which make a great melt pool. Any suggestions on soy waxes that have great HT and CT?
