number2of7 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I just got through pouring my first votives; however, after about two hours of cooling, some have started to crack around the center right where it starts to dip.I haven't yet done the repour, but wanted to see if this part of the process was normal If not, how can I correct it?I used KY Parasoy Tart/Votive Wax, 9% FO, no dye, heated to 180, and poured at 175.

SatinDucky Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I've never seen paraffin do that so it must have something to do with the soy part. Maybe someone from the veggie section can help ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babyv Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I had this problem with my parasboy blend. I think it is cooling to fast. Try pouring at a lower temp. I then set them in the oven until they are done (the temp in my oven or incubator is 80 degrees). hth ~ Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
