Troubleshooting
Uneven burning or "tunneling" (wax only melts in the center)
Ensure the wick is trimmed to 1/4 inch before each use. For the first burn, allow the wax to melt all the way to the edge of the glass to set a proper burn memory. Avoid drafts.
Weak fragrance throw
Ensure the candle is burning in a room with minimal air circulation. Check that the wick is trimmed properly. Allow the candle to burn for at least 1-2 hours on the first use to establish a full melt pool.
Soot or black smoke
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch. Ensure the candle is not placed in a draft. Avoid burning for excessively long periods (over 4 hours at a time).
