Room Temp & Soy Candle Scent


Recommended Posts

Hi all - so, I made a few soy candles using FO that was strong in my melts. I've noticed that after curing the candles for at least two weeks, the scent throw is almost non-existent. I'm using 8oz jelly jars and ECO10 wicks w/GW464. That being said, my house is drafty as heck, my windows are super old and it's down to a lovely 8 degrees out here. I've even noticed that my melts are not throwing off nearly as much scent as they used to when I started this venture back in October. I've been burning them for at least an hour if not more and can't seem to get the melt pool to fully reach the edge of the jars which is why I'm thinking maybe the room is too cold? 

 

Thanks! Karen

It's super annoying too. Ugh. But, I think part of the problem might be the wick. I have some other candles curing with CW60 wicks, I've seen really good reviews on those but I have to wait another week - fingers crossed. If that's another disappointment it'll be wax melts at least until I run out of my 464.
