  2. Tips & Tricks by Kringle Candle Company on how to perfectly reduce candle shoot One of the biggest complaints about Candle Company of all kinds is in regards to the shoot that can be produced by them.  There are a variety of ways to greatly reduce the amount of shoot coming from your candles which will also help them to burn better.  Today I will share some of these candle burning tips with you to help you have a better experience with you candles and save money. Lets first understand what causes soot from a candle flame.

  3. Tips & Tricks by Kringle Candle Company on how to perfectly reduce candle shoot Many event locations, where Candle Company are used for decoration, require that the candle flame not be exposed above the top of an enclosure.  This could mean the flame of your votive candle must be below the top edge of the glass or that pillars and taper candles need to be in tall cylinders or hurricanes.  At first this sounds like a good idea to also keep the draft away from your candles, and it is.  

  4. Tips & Tricks by Kringle Candle Company on how to perfectly reduce candle shoot However, using a closed bottom cylinder or vase can create problems of its own.  Fire needs and uses oxygen to burn.  When you have a candle down inside of a container the oxygen is quickly used up and more is needed for the flame to continue burning.  Naturally, more air is sucked into the container through the top but at the same time the warm air heated by the candle flame is trying to get out.  This fight between the warm and cold air causes turbulence (a draft) in the container which causes the candle flame to dance and produce shoot. 

  5. Tips & Tricks by Kringle Candle Company on how to perfectly reduce candle shoot The best way around this problem is to use a cylinder or hurricane vase that is open on both ends.  Raise the container up off the table about a half inch using something that can spaced apart so air can get in through the bottom.  For my test I used 3 stacks of coins, which I am not recommending you use, but to give an example of what I mean.

  6. Tips & Tricks by Kringle Candle Company on how to perfectly reduce candle shoot The easiest way to reduce the amount of shoot from a Kringle Candle Company is to keep the wicks trimmed.  I recommend starting with about a 1/4″ wick for the first lighting.  If after a few minutes the candle flame looks too big or is bouncing around (while not in a draft) you should trim the wick a little shorter.  Keep an eye on your lit candles, they should never be left burning unattended.  If your candle has been burning for a long time the wicks may need to be trimmed again.  Don’t be afraid to blow a candle out, trim the wick and relight it.
