Wick Testing Soy Bliss / CB2 Wax & Zinc Wicks
Zinc core wicks have a unique construction that provides maximum rigidity in a wide variety of candle waxes. The Zinc Core's jacket design is 100% all-natural and maintains unmatched rigidity in the molten wax pool. Zinc Core wicks are cotton braids with an inner zinc core (no lead alloys). Zinc core wicks are cooler burning reduce soot and mushrooming.
I'm using a 3-1/8" jar and the wicks I'm using are Zinc 44-32-18 (single wick), Zinc 51-32-18 (single wick), and Zinc 60-44-18 (single wick). I'm using Warm Sugar Cookie fragrance oil at 9% fragrance load. 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.

Soy Bliss / CB2 | 3-1/8" | 44-32-18 | 9% Wm Sugar Cookie | Currently Testing. I'm about 1/2 to 2/3 down. So far so good. This is looking really good. I think this will be between the 44-32-18 & 51-32-18. |
