Double Wick Success

I love this jar. I have been double wicking this size for years with LX-14s in 464 soy and they burn perfectly.

Love this jar!

We just started using these jars and have had no problems with the CD 26 wick! So far so good!

Wicking Nightmare

I love the look of these jars. I just can't find the right wick. I've tried everything in my stock and even what CS recommends but the result is either overwicked or underwicked. Using 464 wax.

No Wicking Problems

I used soy wax for my candle with the recommended amount wicks and got a perfect melt pool. After seeing that other people recommended wood wicks, I’ll be giving it a try anyways, but the CD 26 worked perfectly.

A little frustrated

I really like these jars. So much that I just purchased the 8 oz ones as well. The issue that I am having is wicking. I have tried different types of wicks and of course different wick sizes with the wick type and I’m still having issues. I am currently testing CD 4 double wick, CD 6 double, CD 16, CD 18 with an 9% FO in C-3 soy wax, all of which are not working. Any suggestions?

Jar

I love this jar, my customers have not had an issue with the wicks however I do double wick but I also purchase my wicks from Amazon. They have a very thick wick which works fine

I've never had an issue with wicks. Started with a small wick but, advanced to x-large and never looked back.

Wood wicks are the trick!

I love these jars but I struggled to wick them at first. Finally, I decided to try a large wood wick, since the rest of my line is wood wick anyway - and it worked! Customers absolutely love these, and the crackle just adds to the value.

Love these jars Can't seem to wick these jars

I love these jars I also have the 8 oz BUT I am having the hardest time wicking them. I started with IGI 6006 and gave up on that wax with this jar. I am now using ProBlend 600 which is what I use in CS 8 oz mason jars. I think I have the 8 oz wick I am trying ECO 10 in those. But the 16 oz I am still having a hard time, I have tried Premiere, CD, and HTP with no luck.

I am currently trying 2 wicks of ECO 2 since I can't find an ECO 1 in a 6 inch. With ECO 2 using 2 wicks the jar gets too hot. I am going to try ECO 10 in the 16 oz and if that doesn't work I will try a wooden wick if that doesn't work I give up trying to wick this jar. Any suggestions from Candle Science would be appreciate.

Beautiful Jar

I love this jar and I really want to use it in my line. However, I’ve been unsuccessful in wicking this jar. I’ve tried just about every wick I can think of.
