CareBear Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I poured some jelly jar candles with this last night and found there are air pockets around the wicks. I tried pouring cooler at about 145 but it didn't fix the issue. I'd read this is a one-pour wax for some of you - what temp do you all pour it at?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Slushy stage - somewhere around 100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmc Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) I pour 3022 around 118*...smooth tops, no air pockets. Edited December 22, 2013 by lmc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I heat to 200 in my turkey fryer and pour at 185 to 190 degrees and never have problems. Pour it into warmed containers (I have my toaster oven on 200 degrees) and slowly cool in a covered box overnight. I use 6 to 7% fo load and cd or cdn wicks and usually get a great ct/ht the next day or in several days. No need to cure. I've been with this wax for a long time and it is consistantly good with very few issues. HTHSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) I must need a new thermometer. By 135 it's like pouring fudge sauce - no way I could pour any cooler.Warmed jars may be the key.Thanks, everyone.

lmc Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 OOPS...with 3022, I pour right after stirring fo in (180*)...no problems. It's C3 that I pour around 118*. Sorry for the mix up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I actually add a bit of 415...tipping the soy percentage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
