Testing with the wax I typically uses 464 soy wax which i love and feel its easy to use and find the best wick for. However, coconut wax is pretty but can crater and show bubble ls🫧 in candle. Its not hard to work with but i cant find the appropriate wick for my jar. I used the wick guide and tested these but the flame is high CD22 in the new cranberry jar and LX double wicked sonoma amber jar . Need help.

I've been using this 454 for several years now. I used to pour around 78C and was getting some smooth tops yet sinking around the wick. I decreased the pour temp to 66-68C and I get the creamiest tops now. I've found 8-8.5% FO is best with the wicks we use. We've tested a number of them and the LX and CD wicks work best for us. The initial pour normally results in creamy white tops, yet the candles will normally dry with light pitting after burning. That's just the normal state of soy wax. I explain this to my customers that the tradeoff with using no paraffin in candles with a natural wax is the pitting after burns. Nobody has had an issue with it and they appreciate the education about the wax. They still prefer this natural wax due to the lack of paraffin (even though I tell them the paraffin is food grade on their produce, in chewing gum, etc).. 454 is the main wax we use in our business. I'm going to experiment by adding some beeswax to see if I can extend the burn time some. Would recommend.

This wax is my favorite wax, I tried tons over the course of 2 years when I started and I found this one mixed with a bit of beeswax works perfect for me. I use essential oils and some natural fragrance only and I great CT & HT and the burn is soot free all the way to the bottom, provided it's not burned over 4 or 5 hours.

I’ve been in business for a long time, and originally I was using 444. However as time went on and I learned more about different waxes, I jumped on the coconut soy train. So many different companies have pitched me on their own waxes with paraffin additives. But I just won’t do it. 454 has become my tried and true. I love how it’s completely natural with just coconut and soy wax. It’s something I trust.

I started my business, Rum River Candle Company, using 464 but didn't love the frosting. I switched to 454 2-3 years ago to solve for the frosting issue but this wax is sheer perfection in every way! The HT/CT is beautiful every time. I am making a batch of 150 8 oz jars right now and the smooth tops are killing me! Absolute perfection! No heat guns, no sink holes, just perfection. I can't imagine ever leaving this wax. If you haven't tried it yet, I think you should!
