My understanding is that you&rsquo;re supposed to burn a large candle about 3-4 hours each time you burn it. The candle should have a liquid wax pool that covers the top of the candle, side to side. If you don&rsquo;t achieve the total pool, then the wick will tunnel and drown. There are lots of good instructional videos on YouTube that explain how to care for a candle to get maximum scent and usage. Also keep wick trimmed to 1/4&rdquo;. If your wick tunnels or drowns, check out the &ldquo;tin foil&rdquo; trick in the YT videos.
