| The first time you burn your soy candle you should allow a full melt pool to develop. The melt pool is the liquified wax on the top of the candle. The melt pool should extend over (or nearly over) the entire top and should be about 1/4" deep. Soy wax has a memory which means that when it is relight it will first melt out to the edge of the melt pool and then down. A good melt pool during the first burn will mean all the wax (from side to side) will burn away and you will not have the ‘tunneling’ effect.
Note from someone who never took the time to do this it works.
