    Love this series! We've learned the right stuff: right wick, right jar, right wax. So I'd love to see a video on what are the "red flags" to look out for. Like what are some no-no's in candle making.

    Yay! Just got my first package from WWC and I forgot I ordered the wick sample kit!
    I can’t wait to figure out which works best with my vessel and candle design.
    Will be using the virgin coconut soy for the first time! Time to test!!

      Reather's Girls There was a slight delay and I have the rest of my order coming in a different package but it wasn’t that bad of a wait time. Almost 2 weeks! Good luck to you!! 🤗

    I’m using your bee wax blend. In your glass translucent tumbler 12 ounce vessel. What wick and size do you suggest

      We recommend the .03 Crackling Booster for Beeswax Coco Creme! A .625 width is a good place to start burn testing.

    Love the video. Which wax blend would you recommend works best with essential oils instead of fragrance oils?

    • @makesyofficial
      @makesyofficial  4 года назад

      That is an excellent question!!! One with a lower melt temperature! Our Beeswax Coco Creme is great because its 100% natural and has an optimal melt & pour temp from 140-150. F :) woodenwick.com/collections/the-wax/products/beeswax-coco-creme-1

    I got my wicks and one of them burns beautifully, no soot, no smoke but it flickers like crazy. Is that something to worry about?

    Hi guys I’m going to use the coco apricot wax in a 4 inch diameter so it’s a multi wick candle the suggested thickness is 0.02 but I’m not sure what width to use

    • @makesyofficial
      @makesyofficial  Год назад +1

      For a multi wick candle you can use 2 x .02 x .375 and burn test. If you don't get a full melt in 2-3 hours we recommend moving up to the 2 x .02 x .5

    How long does it usually take to get a melt pool or does it vary?

    • @makesyofficial
      @makesyofficial  4 года назад +1

      With the right wick, typically around 2 hours!

    Great to see it. I did it too. The plans from Woodglut helped me a lot :)

    I get that the nature of the wicks from your business is wood, but not everybody makes wooden wick candles. It would be appreciated if you could please give some insight to cotton wicks or other wicks too. Thanks

      Christy Brooks on Stanley’s channel he actually reviews and tests the virgin coconut soy from the Wooden Wick Co with wicks other than a wooden wick. 🙂 I hope that helps your researching process!
