This is the dude: Spencer Krenke is well known within the luxury, progressive and innovative home-fragrance and beauty industry as a "Rebel Nose" perfumer, credited with one of the original Aromatherapy brands in the 1990's, and many of the most successful home-fragrances at the world's leading luxury retailers. Doesn't give particulars about what exactly he created. And he does another line that's $16 and under...?? How can you justify $50 then? That's some expensive glass

So, there ya go: overprice your candle & you'll make it in the magazines! All that & still has typos

Well, I should've stayed way out of this conversation to begin with, lol, as I'm too new to be of much help.... my brain was half functioning when I read your original post. I'm sure a 6006-veteran will pop in here and straighten us both out

ok, now I see the question is about melt pool, not HT, lol. But is 2-3 hours too soon for a test burn regardless?

6006 is a parasoy, so you'll need to let it cure at least a week. hth

I know how you feel..everyone raves about Amish Harvest, but for me, it was a dud. Cure time vs. Screwed up, lol.

Agree 1,000%... to say they may play kickball with your boxes would be accurate, unfortunately.

http://www.fairsandfestivals.net/ Check with your local visitor center, whatever venue holds most fairs in your city, churches, etc.

It says 8.5% max.

Are some wick charts more reliable than others? Sometimes they can vary by 3 or 4 sizes for the same diameter.

Throw is good. I was hoping I was on the right track! I do trim it before each burn. & I have since stocked up my wick selection, lol. And I also ordered the samples from Wickit. Holy cow, they sent me 2 monster size bags of Premier & Superior wicks. So I should be good to go now!

A CD7? oh dear... can you evaluate this candle please? lol, it's the CD10/415 from above...this is just after the 6th burn. There's just a little hangup left to come down. The flame wasn't ridiculous. Jar was warm, but not so hot you couldn't touch it. Mushroomy, yes. HT, yes. I also did an ECO6 & it was too small. Actually, I think I did a CD10 because I didn't have any 8s at that time.

well, doesn't that just figure, lol. Sorry...

Did you see this one? http://www.fragranceoilfinder.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=10605

Oh, thank goodness. I, too, thought I had labeled my jars wrong! My CD10 had a little mushroom, yet the sides were coming down nicely when the CD12 had much more hangup. I change my mind on which is better each time I burn them, lol. So, for CD users: what's your first thought on wick size for a 7 oz tumbler, 2½" diam, maybe smidge wider, GB415, creme brulee...

As you're stirring or waiting to pour, you can put a tiny drop of wax on something white and it will cool quickly and then you can see the color you'll be getting.

GB415 yep only ½ oz (from Candlewic) 5 day cure

Normally, but like I said, I have some coconut lime verbena with an unintentional splash of lovespell

Not sure what the problem was, but I soaked it in vinegar & dish soap & that did the trick. That was some serious spruce,lol.

did that too. Usually I don't have a problem, but it's just a couple FOs that won't go away!
