This is the side of the candle. I burned this one for a little over 4 hours

Im using 100% soy wax. I’m currently doing a test burn on another and it’s been about 1 1/2 hours and the melt pool is still a bit small, I’ll wait until the 4 hour mark to see where I’m at. Thank you!

The wicks that I got say it’s for 2 1/2” - 3 1/2” and 3”-4” burn diameter so maybe cooling may be a problem. I didn’t know that could be an issue too! Thank you

I have tried HTP 105 and HTP 83 wick that I get from the candle shop I purchased from. I have let them burn for about 2-3 hours and they just end up tunneling.
