Wick & vessel (container) testing 🔥
Every time you change a scent or vessel, you need to have the ideal wick for that combination! The wrong wick size is the biggest problem in candles. Having the right size wick will make the candles safer, burn cleaner and longer. There is no short cut for this part. I know it’s not fun to wick test and often seems like you’ll never get it perfect. Perfect isn’t the goal! It’s about the hot throw, (how it smells when lit), the amount of heat the vessel takes when the candle has been burning more than 2 hours, and how quickly and evenly it burns. How do you feel about this part? On a scale of 1-10 1 being, “I don’t even try!” 10 being “my wicks are ideal for every candle size/scent”

The world of candle wicks is complicated; each manufacturer uses different measurements, and it's difficult to find similar wicks from them abroad. There are very few suppliers in Spain, and I'd like to find more variety, but with so many different sizes, it's chaotic. The wick I find hardest to find is the one for beeswax candles.

@Ianthe Mauro Yes, it would be a great help to find suppliers outside of Spain that don't have high shipping and customs fees. Thanks!
Best wax or mix
I’ve been researching and growing. What wax’s do you use for best results. ? All suggestions are welcome.

Hello, I'm from Spain. I currently work with soy wax in my wax pot. For scented waxes, I use APF soy wax, and I currently use beeswax in my wax molds. I'm currently studying coconut and rapeseed wax, but I'm not using them at the moment.
