Complete combustion produces a much hotter flame than incomplete combustion for a given amount of methane reacting.
A flame undergoing complete combustion is typically much hotter and is usually light blue (non-luminous flame), as opposed to one which is undergoing incomplete combustion which is cooler and yellower (luminous flame).
