Hey besties! Choosing the right wick for coconut-soy wax can depend on several factors, including the size and shape of the container, the desired burn time, and the type of fragrance or additives used in the wax.
Here are some steps you can follow to choose the right wick for your coconut soy wax:
✶ Determine the size of your container: Measure the diameter of your container, as this will help you select the appropriate wick size.
✶ Check the manufacturer's recommendations: If you purchased a pre-blended coconut soy wax, the manufacturer may have provided recommendations for wick size and type based on their testing.
✶ Consider the burn time: If you want a longer burn time, you may need a larger wick to ensure that the wax melts evenly and does not tunnel. Conversely, if you want a shorter burn time, a smaller wick may be appropriate.
✶ Consider the fragrance or additives: Fragrances and other additives can affect the performance of your candle and may require a different wick size than what you would use for plain coconut soy wax. Be sure to check the recommendations from the fragrance or additive manufacturer.
✶ Test different wick sizes: Once you have an idea of the appropriate wick size, test several different sizes to determine which one works best for your specific wax blend, container, and desired burn time. You can do this by making several test candles with different wick sizes and burning them to see which one performs the best.
✶ Overall, selecting the right wick for your coconut soy wax can be a bit of trial and error, but by considering the factors listed above and testing different wick sizes, you should be able to find the perfect wick for your candle.
