ISSUES WHEN BURNING RAPESEED BLEND HELP


Recommended Posts

I have just finished my 4 hour burn. 

 

The first 2 1/2 hours were great, the scent thrown was strong and the burn pool was pretty even. It started to struggle after 3 hours were I found the flame looked gradually smaller and the burn pool was then effected and created a slight crater. I am using TCR wicks from Supplies for Candles. I also used 10% FO in my rapeseed blend. I have been reading through other comments with similar problems and I think my problem is my FO percentage is too high?

 

I am going to do a burn test with just wax and my TCR wicks, no FO.

Also a separate test with 6% FO.

 

Any help would be appreciated !!

Definitely test your wax with as few variables as possible. We do t have access to your wax and wicks here but the process is the same regardless. Not every wick is compatible with every wax, so being able to narrow that down will save you a lot of time and $ in the long run.
