Please don’t!
@@ashleygreenn who's gonna stop me. 😈😈
Nah fr it be like that 😂 I would totally buy one but I don’t need any candles I use light bulbs
HI Ashley! Thank you for this tutorial!! I just starting making candles and I love C3 soy wax. I have a doubt, did you preheat the jars? The first time I did a candle I poured it with your recommendations and after a few days the wax separated a little from the container. Once it was switched on it was solved but I don't know if I did something wrong. I tried to pour it colder but it doesn't look as good as the first time (the top layer). Is it better to preheat the jar or put aluminium foil over it? Thank you very much!
Hi, I work in a warmer room. If your home is very cold, it can cause separation. I’d definitely try heating the vessels!
Where do you get your jars in this video
Hey Ashley I need help with figuring out how to measure out my wax for 5 candles I use grams
You stir for 2 mins SMH
In my experience, stirring for *at least* 30 seconds works perfectly. This is a wax I’ve worked with for two years now and I know it well. If you disagree, I recommend you make your own tutorial and post it.
@@ashleygreenn I’m just giving you some advice girl
Any luck with wicking 8 Oz.tins with C-3 wax? I'm having issues . Tried CD-18 as recommended but the flame is high but afraid if I wick down to a CD 16 or 14 there maybe tunneling. Any suggestions would be appreciated☺️
What’s the diameter? I would try the CD 14 or 16 and see what it looks like after 3-4 burns. Tunneling is only bad if it doesn’t correct by the end. My candles don’t create a full melt pool on their first burn because I’m trying to extend the life of the candle. By the end, they burn perfectly even.
I always get beautiful smooth creamy tops with this wax, but it does give slight minor wee little cracks on some of them… it’s usually right next to the wick, so I’ve been told it’s from the wick moving during, or after pouring the wax etc. So I’m trying to tweak that. I have noticed I usually only get cracks when I use cotton wicks. My wood wick ones are always flawless. Which would make sense that the wick is sturdy and not creating air or movement in the wax as it cools like a wobbly cotton wick does sometimes.
Though I don't like mushrooms of CD wicks. For your burn tests in your jars, I would use the CD 6 for the simple fact it does eventually catch up with the wax.
Подскажите трек.
I just bought some wicks. I will now experiment.
Thank you for balancing your time.
Have you tried c6?
I haven’t yet! I hear great things about it though.
It says the melt-point for 415 is actually higher than 464 and 444. On candle science it says the melt point is 121-125 degrees. Is this is a recent move?
I’ve actually been using C-3 for a while now! I was blending waxes for a bit but C-3’s melt point has worked best for me so far. Especially in this summer heat!
Hello there¡ I loved the top of your candle¡ At what temperature did you poured the C3 wax¿
I pour right after I add fragrance! I add fragrance at 185-190, stir for 30 seconds then pour!
My vessel's diameter is 3 in. Also using Cargill C3. I have tried CD 8 and 10. Have tried ECO 8, 10, 14 and some candles have not reached a full melt pool even after 3 burns. Help please
Keep burning! Burn the entire candle. You also might need to double wick with two Eco 1s or 2s. I’m going to be making a video on double wicking soon!
Thank you for doing this review. The sinkholes suck, but I love this wax!
Same here!
Wow!! Thanks for this video I am new at candlemaking and I am testing wax in wicks i’ve been on and off with the candlemaking since March and I am looking to buy wax and with your help I can choose the wax I am in you to your channel I will sub
What wax do you work with?
Hi I’m new to your channel I am a beginner I started in March on and off with wax testing and WIC testing it’s a bit frustrating when having to pick and choose your weeks for the right vessel I like it that you were very thorough in your videos and easy to understand now question what if you had a bigger vessel would you still be able to use the same wicks that you’re using in the video and thank you for sharing this video I know it will help a lot of beginners like myself
Bigger vessels require a bigger wick! Planning on doing a wick testing video in larger vessels soon!
Toss up with the Eco 8 and CD 8. Color might even change the outcome.
I think they're both okay, I might wick down to the ECO 6 and see how I like that burn!
Thank you so much for posting this video. I am trying to find the best wax and needed to review some.
There’s really no such thing as the “best wax” it’s down to preference really.
I like the way cd 8 burned
It burned a little too hot for my liking. I prefer the CD 6, for some reason. I don't like the mushrooming so I am still at a crossroads.
Hello I'm kinda new to container candles, can you tell me what type of wicks are best for C3? I've been testing with some CD wicks and I'm getting a burning candle smell that I don't usually get with my pillar candles
I use Eco Wicks! I’ll be posting a wick testing video on Thursday where I test out some CD wicks!
@@ashleygreenn perfect!! I'll definitely be looking forward to the video ☺️ I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing wrong. There aren't a ton of videos about C-3 out there so I love that you're doing this
Trying to spread the wealth of knowledge!!
So is there another wax that can be used? I asked because you're the 2nd video I've watched and you both used soy and made it specific to say. And if more is soy the best to use?
I enjoy working with soy wax but there are many renewable waxes that you can use! There’s coconut, beeswax, apricot, etc. they all have their difficulties!
@@ashleygreenn thank you for replying. I'll definitely do my research.
@@ashleygreenn my I ask where do you get your waxes from? Thanks
The Flaming Candle!
@@ashleygreenn thank you! They popped up in my searches.
Hi I am having a hard time with the C3 causing glass adhesion issues. Although, it’s such an amazing wax that provides a awesome hot throw. Glass adhesion is my biggest issue!
Glass adhesion issues is something we all face! For me, the temperature of the room is very important! My candle making room is the hottest in the house for that reason! When the wax cools too quickly, it separates from the glass.
I use c-3. That is the only wax I’ve ever used so I’ve worked out my issues with it. Temp and a little less fragrance oil has helped.
Hi Ashley. I've been experiencing the same issues with the c3 wax. Do you have problems with so many bubbles when burning? I have lots of them and when I blow the candle out and it hardens back it looks horrible.
A common occurrence with soy wax is that after burning, the tops are not attractive. In my experience, it cannot be prevented! How does the candle burn? Good ht? ct?
I use C-3 exclusively for melts. It holds a great fragrance and has wonderful throw. You do need a full 2 week cure. I use a coco soy blend for candles.
How are you liking your coco soy blend? I hear such good things about it!
@@ashleygreenn I am very happy with the E26 and the C3. Great through
What do you like more about the coco soy vs C3 for candles? I’ve been interested in experimenting with other waxes. Thanks.
Hello i am in a warm weather environment and I'm a candle beginner.. Which soy wax would you recommend?
Either GB444, GB464, or C-3!
Thank you so much for this review! I just started my business and started with 415. I couldn’t find any reviews of it anywhere. I appreciate you taking your time to share your knowledge!
I started with C3 and left because of the concerns you raised. I thought about coming back to it because of the high melt point and hopes that Cargill is making real changes with their practices but I’m still debating it. I love 444 I have had great glass adhesion with it, great color retention, and awesome hot throw which surprised me cause I’ve read so many people complain about it, but I can not for the life of me get a smooth top after burning and I feel like it looks so unprofessional. :-( I don’t know what to do.
Soy wax is temperamental! Smooth tips after burning are a rarity! Don’t stress it!
I made my first set of candles two nights ago, with 415, I melted to 190, cooled and added my essential oils at 110, and poured it around 100. The tops were smooth, the cold throw is great... I cant wait to try them, ughhh. I don't want to wait, but I know I have to. I used about 8%, (less with my 5x and 10x oils)
Let me know how it turns out!!!
@@ashleygreenn I had no frosting, they didn't have any sinking, and I burned both one of the 4oz and 2oz after a couple days to see if I chose the right wicks (I read A LOT before buying the ingredients, but was nervous, lol!). The small 2oz tins achieved a full melt pool after about 3 hrs, but it was about 97% of full melt after just over 2 hrs... I'm happy with that as I didnt want the tin to get too hot... the 4oz container (glass, same width), achieved a burn pool after 1hr 15mins... which seemed a bit quick, but the top 1/4" is slightly smaller in diameter as the rest, where the lid twists on... idk.. seems appropriate, but March 9 is two weeks from pour date, so I won't about scent through until then... Im keeping track of how long it burns for, but wont know until tomorrow! I'm hoping about 20hrs for the tin and 40hrs for the jar, idk though!
Hi there, the sinkholes might be caused by your wick not being taut enough when you pour. Try winding them on a lolly stick after you have poured, just be careful not to rip the whole wick out, which I have done plenty of times 😆 hope this helps x
Thank you for this video in explaining the difference in soy wax… I was torn myself so I guess I will do like you and have a winter and summer wax.
i have just started watching your videos and they are great - because you know what you are doing - you have a lovely voice and presentation style and you get to the point - so thank you for being so generous and sharing your knowledge !!! hug from Canada
I have had a read through all the comments and cant see how hot you initially heat the wax to? I see a fragrance add of between 180-185 and to pour at around 158. Could you please let me know :)
I heat my wax to about 190-195, I have a presto pot so it varies.
I heat mine to 88c/190f too. Works fine for me. 👍
I have made my 1st batch of candles after researching 4-5 months. I took off heat at 185F and added my essential oil not fragrance oil. I had lumpy tops and separation of sides of glass. I poured at 120F.
You poured waaaay too low. You want to pour at around 160. Also, essential oils can be used in small amounts (about 1-3%) but they are not going to give you the smell you want!
@@ashleygreenn thank you so much for the feedback. Will try on my next batch to pour at a higher temp. 💌
Thank you very much for this video, it confirmed my experience with C3. What is your go to wax, which one do you like to use most? I discovered BW917 and like it so far, do you have worked with it?
I love GB415! I’m learning to love C-3. I haven’t worked with that wax, sorry!
Yes I am starting my business this year thanks for the encouragement 😊
So excited for your journey!
Thanks for this. I was getting a cold throw but no hot throw after 5 days of using the 444 so ill try letting the other one sit for two weeks
How did it go?
Thank you for sharing this video! May I ask what CD wicks which you are using specifically
I use Eco wicks!
thanks for sharing
thanks for tuning in!
Did you see this video? ruclips.net/video/wMVTfJerq08/видео.html&ab_channel=Cargill
Great video!
I just found your video. My shipment of C3 came in and I have no experience with it, so that was really helpful, thanks! I was wondering, what kind of wicks have you had luck with in your C3 candles? I've only been working with paraffin up until this point and it's kind of a different animal. Thank you.
Eco and CD!
I'm in the process of filming a wick testing video so look out for it!
Is it recommended to warm vessels before pouring C-3 wax?
It’s always recommended but I don’t ever notice a difference with warm vessels. It’s all about the temperature of the room. It might be worth trying pouring and placing them in a box or oven to insulate? I’m too impatient to do it so I just heat the tops.
