Ceda-Serica Wax & ECO Wicks
I'm currently testing Coco Apricot / Ceda Serica candle wax with ECO candle wicks. I'm hoping that this will be helpful to some when narrowing down which wicks to use. Feel free to adjust based on your wax/vessel/fragrance oil combo. I'm using a vessel that's 3-1/8" inner diameter at the top, so if yours is smaller, you will want to wick down. It's best to test a couple wick sizes in a few wick series or brands to see what you like the best! Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions at all. I'm here to help.
About ECO Wicks...
ECO wick is constructed from natural flat cotton threads interwoven with paper threads that produce a rigid structure for easy pouring. The consistent flame and slight curl of ECO wicks work well with natural waxes and ensures an even burn. ECO wicks are lead and zinc-free.
I'm using a 3-1/8" jar and the wicks I'm using are ECO 1 (single wick) and double Eco .75 in our 12 oz round bottom vessel. I will allow it to cure for 2 weeks before testing them. I will keep you updated!
If you've found a combination that works for you, please feel free to share your results below.
Results
| Wax Type | Vessel Size | Wicks | Results |
| Ceda Serica | 3-1/8" (Libbey 2917) | Eco 1 | Seems good so far, but Eco wicks might be too hot for this wax, overall. Will keep an eye on this one as it gets closer to the bottom. There was some soot along the rim of the vessel. I'm debating on testing the Eco 2 to see if that makes a difference. |
| Ceda Serica | 3.40" (12 oz Aura) | Eco .75 x 2 | These are burning hot towards the bottom of the vessel and the flames are dancing a bit wildly. I will retest with an Eco .5 and see how that does. |
