Lorelei Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 The reason container soy waxes develop sinkholes is the difference in the rate of cooling between the interior, bottom, sides and top - especially the top. If the top cools too rapidly, the warmer wax underneath will cause a sinkhole to form. Paying attention to even cooling prevents sinkholes completely in soy.Frosting in soy is something you will have if you add color, some candles are worse than others. I went colorless unless the customer asks for it.You can try these things:1. Keep your container out of drafts and heat before pouring2. Space your cooling containers out 3. Pour even lower than you do4. Put a large box over the cooling containers after pour5. Turn off fans and AC in your pouring room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjdaines Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Was is slushy at 105? If not, pour a little cooler and follow what was mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
