I hope this helps you guys! I use 464 Soy Wax in all my container candles. I use ECO 8 for my 180ml jar and ECO 14 for my 8oz Candle tin.
Remember we've all got to do our fair share of trial and error! Just be patient and keep testing those candles 🕯

CD: Flat braided paper wick
ECO: Flat braided cotton wick specially designed for natural waxes.

Thank You for sharing. I use exactly the same jar but I feel that Even eco 8 burn to hot when the candle passes 3/4 og the Jar. Otherwise Even eco 10 work well until that 3/4 have passes. Kind og frustrated now.

@nadjak6332 2 года назад

Hi, thank you for sharing this info! Im so glad I came across your video because I have had to switch vessels due to stock issues on my original one. I now am testing the amber 180ml as you have and depending on FO, I use Eco 4 or Eco 6. Can I ask how you found Eco 6 to be burning too quickly vs Eco 8? because I'd assumed the opposite

@nathalydealba Год назад

Same question I had.

@nikoletadart 2 года назад

Hey, lovely video,thank you. I read all people coments and your video and it seems to me, that is totally individual when it comes to wicking. First the jar size ans shape, color, fragnance loads, wax type etc....With the recomendation from the website candle supply ive ordered few wicks, and strangely, the sizes that seems to be fitiing for my jars dont perform well, some smaller sizes are making mishrooms(which is usually a factor for the bigger wicks, some bigger wicks for the jarsa are forming tunelling...hahah okay will do more and more testings. What would you recommend me for my jars, I have 2 sizes; 106ml/2.2'',5,5cm diameter & 212ml/2.7-8'',6.9-7cm diameter?? They are neck jars like the one for pickling.

@jenyhomestuff 2 года назад

How wide is the tin that you showed at the end? Which soy wax do you used. I love the eco wicks. Thanks

@celestecostello4307 2 года назад

Stating type of wax used for demo would be helpful

@tiaevans2002 Год назад

Hello! I use a 20cl karen glass. I was recommended eco 12, that was WAY too big,high flame, burnt through v fast, burnt my vessel black so I tried a 10. Same issue! I tried an 8, flickering, mushrooming, burned through fast as well! I’ve tried 3 others as well. So I’ve tried 6 wicks and no avail😭do I try an eco 6? I use kerasoy container wax

@stuyes5262 2 года назад

Hello, I'm gonna be using soy wax for my candles the size jars I'm thinking of would be 7-8 ounces to 10 ounces what wick size would I use? Eco 8 or Eco 10-12?

@Zainab-mfc Год назад

I read something with eco wick with 35-45-50-65& 75 strands what it means?

@studioserene36 2 года назад

Can I please ask how much fragrance oil you are using in your soy wax? I'm using soy 464 with 8% fo from candle science and I'm debating between eco 14 and double wicking eco 1.

@KIMALONDON 2 года назад

For the amber jars I use about 10%. What size is your vessel?

@Glowynailss 2 месяца назад

Did you use one or two wicks in the 8 oz candle tin?

@shahizamj5492 3 года назад

180ml amber glass jar, have you try it with cd12 from candle science? I’m just asking cos CS recommend me that , but I’m afraid if might be over wick cos i have the same glass jar as yours, since you’re only using eco 8, I hope cd 12 works for me I’m just waiting for the item to arrive.

@KIMALONDON 3 года назад

No I haven't but it's all trial and error remember, it depends on the wax and fragrance your using and the % so it may work out perfectly for you! Hope it went well :))

Hi Kima. I found your channel today and I think you are amazing. The way you explain things is understandable and you are very encouraging. I am just starting out making candles. I am having so much trouble with wicks. Oh my goodness I am so frustrated. I have tried ECO, LX, TCR and a couple of CD wicks. I have a 3" diameter 50cl clear glass container. What wick would you use for this container? Thank you in advance for your help. Love your channel

@KIMALONDON 2 года назад

Hi!! Thank you so much for your amazing comment, this made my entire day! 💛 I'm SO glad you found this helpful as I know exactly how it feels like to be searching for a video with the RIGHT information without having to sit there for 20 mins 😭 What wax are you using for your candles? I'll be able to let you know as it depends on your wax! xx

@@KIMALONDON Thank you so much for your reply. I'm using S16 soy wax from Luxury London Candles. I'd love to make a candle with a wick that is acceptable. Thank you again 🙂

@KIMALONDON 2 года назад

I've never heard of this wax! So it was really difficult trying to find the right wick size on the Luxury London Candle website. I would suggest trying out an ECO 12 + ECO 14 OR perhaps double wicking

@tinawright9721 2 года назад

@@KIMALONDON Hi. I'm not purchasing this wax again. I'm going to get mine from Livemoor. Thank you so much for replying. I think I've tried those sizes but not double wicked. I'll give that a try. Thank you again for replying. Have a prosperous week and I'll be making my last test candle, fingers crossed. Take care 🙂

Is it possible to rely on the burn diameter on the supplier website? I’m going to ordering based on that but not sure if that’s reliable now 😅

@KIMALONDON 2 года назад

I use it all the time! Although I would always get a few sizes to test

@vthyarubini565 3 года назад

Hi, if I have 2.5 inches diameter jar which eco wick would you suggest ? I got suggestions from Candle Science but it didn’t work out. There was mushrooming. I was using Eco 10

@KIMALONDON 3 года назад

What kind of candle wax are you using? I'd suggest an ECO 10 too but if it didnt work out for you then maybe an ECO 8?

@studioserene36 2 года назад

I use eco 8 for my 8oz amber jar using soy wax 464 with 8% fragrance oil and works pretty good.

@f.amalalala 3 года назад

Hey, what size wick would you recommend for free standing body candles x

@KIMALONDON 3 года назад

Hi! I use ECO 1 for my 9cm tall body candles, but it really depends on the wax and size you're using, I tried ECO 2 and it burned through way too quickly - best if you try out a few!

@mrsworldofwayne7735 3 года назад

Hi can you do a video about the oils you use, mine are a bit hit and miss... Great videos

@KIMALONDON 3 года назад

Sure thing! the same happens to me also dont worry. Especially when I buy them from Mystic Moments 😩

@richardm5204 Год назад

I would think ECO 14 would be so strong for a small candle like the 8oz tin, im using 8oz tins and my ECO 6 was even too strong for it
