General Wick Guide Coco Apricot Ceda Serica Wax

General Wick Guide

WICKING TIP:  Coconut blended waxes are different than regular soy wax. There won't be a full melt pool until you get about half way down the jar. 100% soy has a "memory" and will tunnel, however, coconut blended waxes don't as much.  Initially, there will be some "hang up" on the sides of the jar but as the wick burns, the sides of the jar heat up, and melt the rest of the wax. The important thing to keep an eye on when wick testing is to make sure the jar doesn't get too hot to the touch, there's no soot starting to form along the rim of the vessel, and ideally, the temperature of the melt pool should be between 140 - 160 F.

P.S. We sell Cotton Wick Sample Packs and Wood Wick Sample Packs that are very helpful when testing different size vessels.
