silverm00n Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I got those same loaf pans last week and I can not wick it for the life of me. Tried double, triple, nothing seems to be working... Can you post back here and let me know how yours goes? ~TY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdevine Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 LOL, aren't they just adorable? I picked up the same one's last weekend. I double wicked mine using Joy wax and (2) 44-32-18z wicks. Burned perfectly! Portia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grammafransfixins Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I got a bunch of those with Halloween designs on them.. and made them all for my craft booth.. and they all sold.. whoo hoo.. Love em!Great job!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgia Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I'm using GL70/30 with (2) LX16. There is hang up for the first burn, but it catches up when it narrows down.Those are really cute and the pie crust goes nice in the little loaf.

Ahuff Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Those are cute! I grabbed some of the Halloween ones for gifts for coworkers - they loved them. Hope they get Christmas ones in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so-soy Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I attached a picture after it's been burning for a long time. what does everyone think of the burn?Um, well, I really hope you will be retesting different wicks. That is some severe tunnelling going on there. Not good at all! I like the containers tho... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christy Doc Holley Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I triple wicked mine last year . These sold reallly well for me :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharyl55 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I use a combo of J223 and EcoSoya CBA for these mini casseroles. Two Low Smoke 25z wicks work well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoopie Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Probably triple wick, because what you got going there is not working....I have found great success when I triple wick a loaf/brick with 2 bigger wicks on the outsides (to get those stubborn corners) and then a smaller wick (one you would use in your votives for your particular wax) for the center wick. Works great for me.HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charity4candles Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I am not getting any good results with these with anything less than triple wicking. You've got a pretty good amount of hangup and it looks like your burn is about done. I don't know what wicks you are using, but these things take some serious testing.

Beth-VT Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I double wick those with no problems, but agree that the two wicks you have are seriously undersized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Those are cute containers but I think with more testing you can alleviate that tunnelling and get a better burn. IMO there is too much wasted wax in that container. Keep at it and you will figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebby01 Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 thanks everyone! despite the less than desirable results, having the scent of fresh baked pie crust filling my house made it worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 i agree with the others on the wicks being too small or requiring a 3rd. that will be a lot of wasted wax and your wicks will probably eventually drown out.cute container and you're getting there!

tamilea Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I just got the same pans except with Christmas themes and am using 3-eco 2's with GL 70/30. It is doing well so far--not quite halfway burned yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
