This is interesting. It looks like none of those wicks work well with this particular wax considering the tunneling.

I know this video is old but I would recommend pouring the candles (without any wicks), allow them to set then poke a hole down through the wax and insert a wick. If a wick doesn't work, just pull it out and replace it with a different one.

that takes too much time because you have to burn them 2-4 hrs at a time to really see the melt pool. burning all at the same time lets you try multieple wicks and meltpools

Ah, so you don't add FO in them because you want to test the wicks first. That's awesome. Great tip. But does the FO make a difference in melt pool for some reason?

Thanks for sharing! In the process of testing wicks also. What type of jars are you using and what’s the circumference of jars? Is it 3”?

Of course! Every wax and every wick will perform differently. Suppliers can only give is general guides but it is up to the maker to do their own testing for optimal performance. I am still wick testing but I am hoping to be able to sell my candles soon 😁

@Alisha Simms Yep! Candle Testing (for every New Fragrance) can be a pain at times! Wick Sizes can change from 1 Fragrance Oil to another, even in the same size Jar.

Thank you for showing us a easier way to getting the wax out of the jars! However, it looks like none of the wicks were good for the wax. Try switching to a new wax and see what happens next for you. Other than that good job on the testing!

Ive seen on some articles doing it without fragrance oil so you can remelt the wax and use it over again to re wick. Kinda like adding one factor at a time then you can add fragrance oil once u found the right wick and if something goes wrong you can do process of elimination of what went wrong :D

She should have gone with the LX20 as recommended on CS. Starting with a full 4 hour burn on these Libbey 917CD will get a full melt pool if not near perfect, and then each burn after that (ending near 4 hours) is certainly a full melt pool. This is obv going to vary on the %FO you put into each candle you offer
