As a consumer most of my life and now as a true beginner, I say this with NO OFFENSE intended . coming into the research of candle making I’m stunned by how hard you all go for PERFECT A RESULTS. I swear I’ve never known anyone who bought candles to care about some of things you guys stress about safety is important so as a consumer yes, huge flames, soot, too hot of a candle to touch or move when lit, extremely tunneling, and yes I would say burning time and of course of above all we want to smell it but no one complains about flickering, frosting or small sink holes and none and I mean No one I’ve ever known in life has ever trimmed wicks before lighting and never has any issues. As a irresponsible candle lover I must say most candles I’ve used have all been great and that you guys shouldn’t stress so much cause as beginner all these details are stressing me out. 😂

Erica! Thank you sOOO much, you are my new favorite online person during these times. I pretty much binge watched your channel a couple weeks ago and all of it has been so helpful. At first I was shocked of how open you are with the details of your candle business but quite honestly it's TRUE just cause something works for you doesnt necessarily guarentee it'll work for me or others. Its important to test test test! Thats where I'm at tight now with my jars and there truly is no shortcuts to this candle making process but getting informed does help make decisions easier. Thats what you are providing with your videos. LOVE it! AAAND congratulations on opening your shop! ❤👏

Yvonne you are so sweet!! Thank you❤️ It makes me so very happy that you have enjoyed and gained value from all of my videos-that’s all I can ever hope for! I have chosen to be open, honest and give all my knowledge to my fellow candle makers. Someone can copy my “style” or use the same wax, wick and jars as me. But they will never be my brand. I think a lot of people are afraid to give away information, or tell people details of their business because they’re afraid of competition or someone stealing their ideas. I know how frustrating it can be on the other end when you’re trying to learn how to do something and the person giving out the information is SO general and vague and you end up learning nothing. I want to share everything about my journey, nothing to hide here. ❤️

This makes SOOOO much sense now. I recycle my candles and t-lite candles because I just use so much and I hate to waste. I don't put perfumes or anything like that, just re use the wax at the ends and I re use the glass container that the candle was purchased in. I was wonder why I couldn't keep them lite, I had no idea about the gauge. THANK YOU!

First off. Thank you so much for this info since it pointed me on the right path. I needed a wick for a 3” jar witch I filled with leftover finished candle wax. Wicks, where troubling me and of course, not working. So, what I did with this guidance is using a roll of hemp wick, I twisted 3 layers together to bulk up the wick and voila, it’s been perfect. Figured I’d offer you this info. Thanks love, 👊🏼.

This is so interesting. Most of the time you are told that the candle should melt all the way across the top on the first burn but apparently that is only for paraffin? I don't really know, there is so much conflicting advice around but I generally go with what you do. A big smoking flame is definitely not what you want. It's a long journey to find the best candle you can possibly produce. Well done lady, you are doing so great and your Etsy shop looks wonderful. You should be very proud of yourself.
@MemoryBoxCandleCo

I agree with you, that’s why I wanted to stress in this video that we will all hear conflicting advice, but it’s always best to test for yourself and find out what works for you. But I had to share my experience, even if it’s conflicting! And who knows, maybe things will change in the future and I might do things differently, but for right now I know it’s best for me to document my process as I go. Thank you so much for your kind words and your continuous support, Barry!

This was awesome! Thank you! Everything you've described has happened to me and I have wanted to give up so many times. It not only requires a lot of your time and patience but can get pretty expensive too. You prob mentioned this but I think this is pretty universal at this point but eco wicks are best used with soy waxes. I use a soy blend myself and eco wicks don't do well in that wax, no matter the jar or FO. I have had better success with premier wicks and some zinc wicks but I'm still testing as I type and am basically trying to find that perfect burn that you described! Lol. It really helped to learn that a full melt pool by hr 3 is not necessarily a must. That made my night! Thanks again!

Thank you! looking forward to more videos!
@MemoryBoxCandleCo
@MemoryBoxCandleCo 4 года назад
Hi! So glad you found my channel too :) From what I have learned, you should reach full melt pool (or almost full melt pool) within 4 hours of the candle burning, this is just a general rule though and could be different based on the diameter of the jar. It’s also okay if it does not reach full melt pool after the first burn (as long as it’s close enough to the edges to where it won’t cause any tunneling)

What if you put a wood wick and a cotton wick together in the same candle.How consistent will it be.I'm searching for some candle wick that's thick to get a thicker flame.I was checking out some videos on tea pot candle heaters so I suggested getting a thicker flame from the candle to use less candles.And using a bigger plant pot to produce more heat.And what if I use two cotton wicks in the same candle to get a bigger flame or can I put two cotton wicks in the same candle ?

Thank you so much for your videos they all are very well explained and very detailed, it really helps specially for beginners like me. I have a question , I have some problems with my wicks, and now I understand better about the length and gage , my question is....on minute 2.49 you mention about the wick if is too small it will start to tunnel down the center. What do you mean with “small” do you mean the gage? So the thickness? Because that’s the problem I’m having with my candles . Also that my wicks burn very tiny even when I cut them the correct size. Thank you!!
@MemoryBoxCandleCo

Yes you are exactly correct! It’s the gauge of the wick. The thicker the gauge, the bigger the wick, the bigger the melt pool ☺️

It should be common sense but I worry that customers won’t know to keep trimming their wicks and therefore blame me if their flame goes out. How can I ensure that they’ll remember to do so on their own? Your videos are always so helpful btw.

So I just wanted to clarify You showed us two different size jars I wanna see you sad for the 10 ounce jar you said to go with the eco-12 and do to Wicks and I believe you said that it does burn a little bit slower but that’s OK. One thing I have a question on was the first size jar that you showed us you said that you did the eco-2 can you tell me what size that first jar was? Basically can you tell me the size jar that you were mentioning and the wick type that went with it. I really like those jars that you’re using so I have research those but I appreciate your input on what work to put in them so if I can get clarification that would be great!

Erica, thank you for the information. I love watching your videos. Q? When testing your candles do you use your actual containers for your candles you sell or do you use a specific container for testing?
@MemoryBoxCandleCo
@MemoryBoxCandleCo 4 года назад
Yes! Always test with the candle jars you are going to sell 🙂

Love this series !! The diameter of my jar is 3.14” and I’m using a ECO 8 as suggested on candle science. Do I still need to double wick it even thought it’s only a little bit above 3 inches?
@MemoryBoxCandleCo
@MemoryBoxCandleCo 4 года назад
Not always! I would just do a lot of testing to see what works :)

Hello. I currently use 6006 and am looking into different wicks. Looking at HTP 83 for my jar similar to your small jar in the video. What wax do you use? Thank you so much for your informative videos with meaningful content.

When you test, do you have others that you burn longer than the 3hrs/sides melted/full melt pool - so you know what customers experience if they don't blow it out every 3 hours.(Do you find the total burn time to be the same between the 2?) And how long burn time do you suggest to customers?? Last question..... in a jar candle - what is the average burn time to fill the room with fragrance?
@vegan_guac
@vegan_guac 2 года назад
A candle should never be let to burn for more than 4hours. It's on the safety label that needs to be on each candle sold.
@annemariebridges1459
@annemariebridges1459 2 года назад
@@vegan_guac Yes, vut.that doesn't mean the customer listens. You should always do one power burn test item imo.

True....6" IS generally best with medium girth and 3" only works with WIDE girth, 1" is common size from Asia and useless....but behold the rare 9", thin girth....heard it can burn way to deep in the wax pool but if it is wide and 9", be very careful she doesnt flicker right out. Oh come on, I wasnt the only one.

Excellent Video clip! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Honulian Wiffy Remover (do a search on google)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for making money as a candle maker without the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend after a lifetime of fighting got amazing results with it.

Thank you for taking time to make these videos. Learning so much from you about candle making. I was wondering if you have ever experience a red streak in your soy candles using ECO 8 wick? I made a test candle using this wick and after curing for 2 days, I noticed a red streak at the top and at the bottom of the candle. I didn’t burn it because I wanted to send a photo to CS. I contacted Candlescience and got a reply that they had never seen that happened. I am using GB 464 and ECO 8 wick. I used their recommendation on what wick to use. I was just wondering and would appreciate any advice. Thank you.

When you test burn your wick do you wait for you wax to cure first in 2 weeks? Or its okay to test burn wick after 4 hours when the wax is hardened?
@vegan_guac
@vegan_guac 2 года назад
Most wax manufacturing will tell you the minimum cure time before lighting. It's usually 48hrs

Just so im clear, the jars im using are 3.06 in dia...would double wicking using eco 2 yield the ame results as using 1 eco 12 or 14 wick?
@MemoryBoxCandleCo

No not at all, I would test all of them and see how they perform ❤️ I would do 4 tests: Eco 12 Eco 14 Two eco 1’s Two eco 2’s
