It depends what you are going for. It seems paraffin burned the brightest, then soy and then beeswax. I'd say soy won, because it had a decent brightest and length of burning, but if you are just going for length of time, then yes beeswax won.
I wish that there was a clock there so I could see how long these candles burnt, :)). Thanks for the video. The winner was clearly the man in the tub, :)))
Wow. Thank you. Just curious, did it have anything to do with the wicks and flames? I noticed the paraffin and soy had larger flames, and their wicks were bent (might have been the reason for the larger flame). Did the beeswax candle use the same type of wick, because it had a considerably smaller flame and did not seem to bend.
The beeswax flame in the other videos I have seen the beeswax is a smaller flame. So the beeswax may burn longer but you will not get the flame output or BTU's. So I would not use as fire starter material for instance, myself. Add in the wax has the scent so the beeswax would throw less candle scent IMHO. I do not know why people think the beeswax won anything rather than a burn time race.
@@JDL_2020Longer burn time, naturally smells good without adding fragrance or oils, and doesn’t emit pollutants into the air. It’s a triple win for me 😉
i use paraffin candles when the electricity goes out. Soy wax is what i use for fragrant candles. Beeswax, lits up the longest, but it also smells too much like honey.
Paraffin, which is a less dense fuel than beeswax and soy wax, burns faster and thus throws more scent. Generally the denser the fuel, the slower burning, and this the less scent throw.
Can you make this into an 8 hour loop? So I can run/play this instead of the fireplace ones on the tv? :) The size of the wick on the candle at the top which I assume is your product has a decent flame. I would be interested in seeing a test with the other waxes in the same mold and wick as your product on top.
I'm curious what, if anything, you're trying to prove with this test. With no parameters listed, nothing is proven. The comments seem to think that the beeswax won because of its longer burn time but with the unbalanced flame sizes it seems to me that the beeswax is of course going to last longer but is that small flame usefull? As a hobbiest candle maker I am fully aware of the nessicity of test burns to learn the characteristics of your candles but this seems pointless....
Paraffin is a winner, the biggest flame, gave the most light. Whats happened to beeswax? It had a 'drowning' flame at all times, I dont consider it burning
Paraffin is the worst. Soy and beeswax is all natural. I make soy candles, they burn really well. Beeswax is harder to work with it solidifies faster and you have to work really quick to do what you want with it. Soy wax is easy to work with and you can take your time with it.
@@DeathlyDahlia22I also want to make soy wax, but there are too many fake soy waxes on the market. How do we know that the soy wax we buy is 100% natural?
