    I just bought some wicks. I will now experiment.

    Though I don't like mushrooms of CD wicks. For your burn tests in your jars, I would use the CD 6 for the simple fact it does eventually catch up with the wax.

    I like the way cd 8 burned

      It burned a little too hot for my liking. I prefer the CD 6, for some reason. I don't like the mushrooming so I am still at a crossroads.

    Hi I’m new to your channel I am a beginner I started in March on and off with wax testing and WIC testing it’s a bit frustrating when having to pick and choose your weeks for the right vessel I like it that you were very thorough in your videos and easy to understand now question what if you had a bigger vessel would you still be able to use the same wicks that you’re using in the video and thank you for sharing this video I know it will help a lot of beginners like myself

      Bigger vessels require a bigger wick! Planning on doing a wick testing video in larger vessels soon!

    Hello there¡ I loved the top of your candle¡ At what temperature did you poured the C3 wax¿

    • @ashleygreenn

      I pour right after I add fragrance! I add fragrance at 185-190, stir for 30 seconds then pour!

    Any luck with wicking 8 Oz.tins with C-3 wax? I'm having issues . Tried CD-18 as recommended but the flame is high but afraid if I wick down to a CD 16 or 14 there maybe tunneling. Any suggestions would be appreciated☺️

    • @ashleygreenn

      What’s the diameter? I would try the CD 14 or 16 and see what it looks like after 3-4 burns. Tunneling is only bad if it doesn’t correct by the end. My candles don’t create a full melt pool on their first burn because I’m trying to extend the life of the candle. By the end, they burn perfectly even.

    Toss up with the Eco 8 and CD 8. Color might even change the outcome.

      I think they're both okay, I might wick down to the ECO 6 and see how I like that burn!
