because you have the vents open on the bunsen burner the flame is getting more oxygen, making it hotter.

Different flame types of Bunsen burner depending on flow through the throat holes (holes on the side of the Bunsen burner -- not to be confused with the needle valve for gas flow adjustment).

1) air hole closed (Safety flame used for when not in use or lighting).

2) air hole slightly open.

3) air hole half open.

4) air hole almost fully open (this is the roaring blue flame).
