Safety

The first time you burn your candle, it’s very important to keep it lit until the whole surface is liquid wax and extends to the edges. When you burn it thereafter it will burn down evenly and slower.
When burning after the initial burn, try and burn for a minimum of 45 minutes and no longer than 3-4 hours.
Keep your wick trimmed to 5mm and if it 'mushrooms' nip the top off. This helps control the size of the flame so as not to burn too fast or smoke.
Ideally, use a snuffer to extinguish your candle, blowing it out can cause some of the wick to drop into the wax and slightly damage the wick.
Extinguish a candle if it smokes, flickers, or the flame becomes too high. These signs indicate the candle is not burning properly and the flame isn't controlled. Let the candle cool, trim the wick, then check for drafts before re-lighting.
Do not leave your candles unattended and place away from drafts, children and pets. Always place candles on a heat-resistant base and set on a level stable surface.
The coffee grounds will burn within the wax but a residue will also be left at the bottom. We strongly advise that you don’t burn these. Any residue can be burnt on an open fire safely.
