  1. I have been trying to get a better HT and have been posting this question on other boards but there is nothing like the knowledge in Craft Servers!!

    SO I usually add my FO at around 165 but on NGI site (Ecosoya) they said FO should be added prior to pouring or at 140.

    I have now tried that and are waiting for them to cure before I can test.

    I have a Bluberry Muffin scent that I got a amazing HT from when I was testing wicks and didn't pay that much attention to what temp I added FO and I sure didn't let them cure that long either, usually 48 hours and then tested. No I can barely smell it after 10 days of curing.

    SO at what temp do you add FA and get the best HT?

    (I use Ecosoya CB-135/Xcel 60/40 and CD wicks)

    I have now tested these candles and I can't tell any difference at all in HT, so I think I will just continue to test and find the FO's that works for me

  4. I'm searching for strong scents to use in my soy and I have been purchasing samples of what others find to have a strong HT, but some of my samplers are really weak OOB.

    Is there any connection between strong scent OOB and strong HT?

    I have pured candles but are waiting for them to cure.

  5. I have been struggling to make some labels to my soycandles.

    I need some feedback on these, is there anything missing? Should I remove my website and put in burntime and weigh instead?

    I can't add a new line, it would make everything to small and hard to read.

  6. I get my wicks and molds from BCN for now, but I was looking around for any more suppliers that ships international. I would feel great if I knew that I could get my stuff at at least one more supplier if BCN runs out or something else happens.

    I have found other placer for my FO (Bert's and Daystar) but have a hard time to find wicks, I use CD's and LX.

    Anyone knows?

  7. I have now tested some other wicks such as CD and HTP and they are sooting, I went down to a CD 8 that burned fine but the HT wasn't any better then with the LX wicks. I will not test anymore wicks, LX burns just beautiful, no soot, not to hot, no hang up after the first burns, and no trimming needed. I just will have to find scents that throws in my combo.

    I have a few that works good and now I have ordered some more from Heaven Scents and are going to try Day-star too, not that many ships to Sweden.

  8. I'm searching for some strong FO's and these two ships to Sweden, at Daystar there was a lot with flashpoint over 200 :-)

    Soooo... what FO's is a much have from these two?

    I have read that Blackberry Jam Butter cookies is strong and good from Daystar and I was thinking Black Strawberry Vanilla from Berts?

    Ohhh... I use a blend of Xcel and CB-135 (soywax)
