NickS Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Is there an ideal air temperature to pour, cool, and cure container candles? What is too cool or too hot? Is very low humidity a problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 You honestly have to try different scenarios with your wax. I'm in humidity and it seems to be more of a problem with soy than a dry climate. I think dryer is better for all the above aspects. Soy likes about the same temp we do to cool and cure (low to mid 70's) Pour temp depends on the wax. Hopefully someone using the wax you chose will pipe in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Like kandlekrazy said, you have to test it out. I like to be comfortable when I'm working, and I can't stand being cold or air conditioning, so I keep my basement at an ambient temp of about 72°-75° and our humidity where I'm at is very low and anywhere from 10-25% at the highest. It's rare it gets below 10% and even rarer that it gets above 25%. It usually hovers right around 15% 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickie Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I find that any kind of drafts, summer or winter, are worse than the air and humidity for any kind of wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
