Scent Cellar Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I poured this soy Sunday into an 8 ounce square mason and a 10 ounce apothecary container. It took the color well and the tops set up perfectly flat. I did a 4 hour burn on each container yesterday and another 4 hour burn on them today. I will contine the burns on each tomorrow. This is a great burning soy, very pretty looking container candle and easy to wick. Just wondering if anyone else has tried it and how they like it. I have yet to try the449 but may get to it later in the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsyjen Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 FYI, Millcreek has now listed GW444 on their website. They call it "Golden Soy Blend 444". It's $47 per 50lb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marilyn Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I saw that on MC. I wonder what the price difference will be between the various suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geekrunner Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 FYI, Millcreek has now listed GW444 on their website. They call it "Golden Soy Blend 444". It's $47 per 50lb.With the regular MC soy at $37, shipping to me takes it to $51. The new GW444 would be $61 to me, and raise the cost $0.20 per lb to $1.22, and not have to add anything to it (besides UV inhibitor). Currently at $6 per lb of BW I'm adding 1/2 oz BW per lb of soy, the cost of adding BW to soy is $0.19 per lb.So it's pretty much a wash as far as price goes. Factor in the time savings from pouring hotter, and it makes it worthwhile to switch.But then I have to retest all I've done so far, which fortunately is not alot, only about seven jar/wick/scent combos.This is fun! I'll have to return Jason's call today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scent Cellar Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 The scent throw on mine was OK... not a knockout but I am going to pour another two and cure them for a week or two and then burn. I poured mine at 125 degrees and the tops were perfectly flat, no dips or cracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeannie Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Scent Cellar, curious....What scents did you pour? How much did you use? Hope to get mine this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scent Cellar Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 I used Spiced Apple from BCN because I know that throws great in EZsoy. And I used 1 1/4 oz for the pound of soy. I just walked upstairs where I have them burning and I think the throw is a bit better than just OK. These were only cured for 1 1/2 days before testing.
