If not, grab some pliers, get a really good grip on the wick and you can pull it out of the tab. Then insert another wick in the hole. There are a ton of scents from CS that throw well in Fig, Black Sea, etc. Most of them really. Been using them in up until this point. I will need to dive into "wickectomy" and become a wickemoligst Thank you for all your help.
I am very grateful for you putting up with me newness on here. Too little may have no effect. Too much and it will lock that fragrance in to the wax never to appear in the air. The recommended amount of vybar is fractions of a teaspoon per pound of wax added while melting the wax, blending extremely well.
The rest is up to your choices of vessel, fragrance and wick. If you scoop some wax out of the candle and put in a wax melter treat it like a melt and can smell it, then your wick is definitely the culprit. It could be too hot for the fo, believe it or not. The wax melts at a particular rate. The flame is able to consume at a given rate and burns at a given temperature range.
If the melt pool grows too big for the wick to consume in a balanced manner, the temperature of the wax at the point of combustion near the wick may drop to a temp too low to throw it into the air. THAT point, at the wicks edge is where the throw usually is designed to happen.
You may need to experiment with different wick series to achieve the perfect final candle. Invest in a sample pack of as many different wicks as you can.
Test them all until you find the magic combo. The base of the flame of the wick draws up fuel and burns it. The wax and FO vaporize at that point creating the throw, Not the melt pool itself.
The air might not become heated enough at that point to Create a strong current to circulate up and out of the vessel. The flame might look pretty with the under combusted fuel, but the smell will stay at the surface of the candle, or it might create carbon.
Your choice of vessel and wax and of course FO each plays a big role In the success of your candle. Play to the strengths of your wax and most of the problem solves itself.
The more volatile compounds in fragrance will get into the air and burn out, making the second and later burns smell less like the expensive fragrance, and more like just a wax candle burning. TT's advice is spot on. It made a huge difference. I got a much better, stronger scent throw than I had already been getting. I always thought it was a good candle and stopped testing.
Besides, my customers were always telling me how much they loved my candles. So I could have gone on without making any changes. Those two small changes made a huge difference and turned a good candle into the perfect candle! A nice side effect is that I use less FO and save money. Part of running a candle biz is to control your costs where you can if you want to stay in business. My guess is they don't. This is a very high turnover industry and I see lots of candle makers fail on the business end.
Many brag about their high FO loads, then next year you never hear from them again. You can post now and register later. If you have an account, sign in now to post with your account.
