ā ļø Wick Selection & Formulation Matter
Keep in mind, your choice of wax and fragrance oil dramatically affects wick performance:
Fragrance Oils: Rich scents or heavy oils may clog wicks, requiring a larger wick size or different wick series
Wax Type:
Soy and vegetable waxes tend to be more resistant to flow and may need hotter-burning wicks
Paraffin wax typically burns more easily and may do well with smaller wicks
Additives: Ingredients like Vybar or stearic acid alter melt pool temperature and flow, shifting the ideal wick
š¬ Always test your wick with each unique formulationāwax blend, fragrance load, and container shapeāto ensure safe and consistent results. Candle-making is both an art and science!
