ebarnes Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I currently use a 16oz Aptho...... jar. Im looking into using some Honey Pot and Bulb styles jars (all have same diameter) do you test burn these? Im thinking since the melt pool is the same there is no need to test. PLEASE ADVISE!!!!

mindy5140 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Yes, you have to test them. You have to test every candle you make. Just because they have the same diameters doesn't mean they will burn the same as the others. Heck, I use 2 different wicks for one jar, because of the FO.I really like the Honey pot and Bulb Jars but they are to expensive for me.Good Luck & Have Fun,Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candleessence Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Not only do you need to test each jar but each FO for that jar. If the dia. & wax are the same as your other jar then @ least you have a good starting point for your wicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebarnes Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 Changes everything.Another STUPID questions, but I have to ask b/c I want a qaulity product. What if Im using the same type of jar different company? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottopus Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Another STUPID questionsNo such thing as a stupid question, other people might also have this question.I would say that if it's a container that made by a manufacturer (such as Anchor Hocking) that you buy for different distributors, I wouldn't re-test. If it's different companies making a container (such as a 16 oz Apothecary), I would definitely test everyone since there are a lot of differences is glass composition, thickness, and molds measurements.
