Is there a proper way to burn my candle?
|
|
Have you ever wondered why your
pillar or jar candle tunnels through the center and do not burn out to the
sides? This tunnel effect is not because your candle is defective it is just
because you are burning it incorrectly.
Wax has a memory. If you have a three inch wide pillar candle but only
melt out half an inch the first time you burn it that is the width your
candle will go every time and you will have cut short the life of your
candle. Wax burns about one inch per hour. Therefore if you have a candle
that is three inches wide you need to set aside at least three hours of
burning time the first time you burn your candle.
After that first burning you will be able to burn the candle for as long or
as short an amount of time as you wish.

When do I trim the wick?
|
Before you burn your candle, trip the wick
to about 1/4 of an inch, and trim the wick each time you light your candle.
After the initial burning the wick may develop a mushroom like top to it.
Trim that off before you relight the candle. Burning the mushroom top of the
wick just burns up soot into the air which can later accumulate on your
walls. Speaking of soot, put out the candle with a candle snuffer. By
extinguishing the flame with a snuffer you are trapping all the soot in the
snuffer and not allowing it to accumulate on your walls.
