How To Make Double Wicked Scented Soy Candles Video
When it gets right down to it, the larger container candles need more candle wick. This is necessary to provide the appropriate amount of heat required to create a melt pool that fully covers the candle surface. If you do not have the correct wick sizes, or quantites, tunneling will occur because the full surface of the wax is not consumed as the wax is burned.
See the article I wrote on candle burning problems for more specifics.
So on that note, I made this double wicked scented soy candle using a tangerine fragrance, and turned it into a video. Because wick placement correct wick placement is so important, I showed you one of the ways that I use the wicks in combination with a dowel rod, and a glue gun to secure the candle wicks exactly where I want them before I pour the soy candle wax.

My soy candle wick is burning itself out
Soy Candle Wicks Burning Out Problem
Reply to: My soy candle wick is burning itself out, how do I fix the problem?
I would suggest that you check the length of your candlewick. Is it to short? If you are trimming the wick shorter than 1/4 inch, the flame can be extinguished by the melting soy wax as it pools around the candle. Also, if your candle wick is to small, it will not consume the soy candle wax. Soy candle wax is a fuel for the wick to burn, and it will drown from lack of combustion.
