Can you use a tea light to sterilize?

Instead of making an alcohol tiki torch, or just using a lighter over your needle till it turns red... could you use a little tea light candle as a constant flame to sterilize the needle if you're re-using it between jars???

You could use a tea light. I personally recommend scented candles for the extra deliciousness.

yeah, I use a long unscented candle to sterilize my scalpel for agar work! It definitely gets hot enough. Be aware you may see some soot build up on whatever you're sterilizing; the soot won't bother anything, but expect some black particulate regardless.
