Fragrance, pour, cure
After the heat, 6–10% fragrance (ceiling ~8%). Pour, wait 24 hours, and 48 hours to 1 week for scent. Trim the wick ~5 mm.
Where it is used
Container glass. Mold detail and free-standing pillars are paraffin work. Blends are in a separate guide.
Frosting and sinkholes
Matte white crystals are a soy characteristic. A dip is fast cooling. Cool slowly, and do a second pour if needed.

A double boiler is the norm in a workshop. A water bath for even heat and safety.
How many candles from 1 kg?
About 5–6 in a 200 ml container. Use a scale; flake volume is misleading.
