Pour at 190°F. Allow candles to cure for at least three days before burning for a more favorable fragrance throw.

Take note of your candle pouring environment as colder room temperatures or cold glass may require a hotter pour. The inverse may also be true for pouring candles in hotter environments.

 Recommended Wicks and Wicking

Recommended Wicks: HTP Series

Recommendations for wicks based on the type of wax used. Fragrance loads and fragrance types may change wick recommendations. Do factor in the jar height as candles may retain more heat causing the candle burn hotter than normal as it burns deeper in a given vessel. 

Commonly used wicks with C-3 and California Candle Supply Containers

Commonly used wicks based on independent testing and customer feedback. Fragrance loads and fragrance types may change the burn profile and overall experience. Do factor in the jar height as candles may retain more heat causing the candle burn hotter than normal as it burns deeper in a given vessel.

 Please be sure to perform your own tests before creating your candles in bulk as it is your responsibility to ensure the safety of the finished product by conducting all necessary tests.

Naturewax C-3 is an all natural soy wax consisting of soy and soy based additives. It is a flake form wax that has good adherence while also being more heat resistant in comparison to other soy flake waxes. Due to the harder consistency, we find the HTP series works well in terms of getting good aromatic lift. The ECO series are also a good option. Being a flake form wax, with larger candles multiple pours may be needed and/or heat gunning the tops flat to ensure the wax pool can effectively reach the sides. The wax is normally really easy to wick, especially at 8%. Larger loads like 10% are fine, but is more oily in consistency and the wax will be less heat resistant. Dialing in the wick can be more difficult at high loads. Many customers opt to include a very small amount of additive like Beeswax or Vybar to help with fragrance absorption on higher loads and to help stabilize the burn profile for an easier time in wicking. In regards to flake form waxes we find the C-3 to be one of the best in terms of consistency from batch to batch along with seasonality.
