Definition of a successful test candle?


Recommended Posts

Is there a resource that someone can point me toward that defines how a candle of xx type (pillar, container, votive, etc.) should burn to be considered good/successful/safe?

Forgive me if this has been answered before - I've used every search phrase I could come up with but haven't hit it yet.

Can't believe how much I don't know after 35+ years of being a candle "consumer". But that's for another thread :)!

Thank you all so very much!

The closest thing I have come across to what you want is a draft by Lyschel (of http://www.candlecocoon.com fame) called "Testing Candles for Best Burning Results". You may want to email her or ask on her board about it to see if she still has it posted anywhere. It was mainly about how to test, but it was general enough to give a good idea of what to look for.
