My reason for wanting to double wick is that from what I've been reading it gives a better melt pool which in turn gives a better scent throw. I was thinking that because my containers are only 10 oz. that would be better in a larger room. The eco 8 was too small so therefore I know I need togo to a larger wick for single wicking. I'm not sure what's the best way to go. Everyone has different opions. Obviously I am new to candle making and I just want to do things the right way to get the most out of the candles I make. I have been learning so much since I first started doing this it's mind boggleing. Kellie

Theresa, nice job at playing good cop and explaining and thank you to all who have helped to explain in an appropriate way. Kellie

Flightoffancy, I have seen this container from a successful candle company double wicked and have purchased it from them, it seems to do very well. I don't have a clue as to the soy wax they use or what wicks. Kellie

Hi and thank you for the welcome, I was thinking of the ecosoya advanced. Kellie

Hi Misser, I went to Daystar's website and I was impressed with the variety of unique FO's they have, some a bit pricey. Do you use many of their FO's? If so can you recommend some to me. Thanks Kellie

Carrie, Thank you for replying and suggesting how I should have asked my question. That was helful Kellie

which do you prefer Ecosoya or natures C3? and what do you find the difference to be if you've used both? Thanks Kellie

wow this is funny because I asked a distributer of eco wicks what their suggestion would be and they said 2 eco 6 or 8's and said if using one i should use 14 or 16. And this was telling them what my container size is. Kellie

I'm a newbei and I have sampled from a lot of companies so far and found that NG FO's just don't cut it for cold or hot scent throw. Don't know if it's the soy I use Natures C3 or the wicks i use Eco. One that I thought I would like was Satin Sheets and I can't smell it at all when burning. Kellie

What do you all think about Peak FO's. I have done some comparison test with them and other companies and find they have a stronger scent from the bottles. Does this mean that they will have a better scent throw? Kellie

it is a square jar 10oz. Footed Square Jar - CandleScience Candle Supply

Thanks for your reply Steph, it was very helful Kellie

I am thinking about double wicking and I'm not sure what size wicks to use. I am using Natures C3 soy with 6% FO in a 10 oz. square footed jar that is 2 1/2 tall, 2 1/2 wide at top opening and 3 1/4 diameter. I would like to use eco wicks can anyone tell me what size I should use. When i single wicked this container i used an eco 8. Thanks Kellie

Does wicking up mean going to a larger wick for better scent throw and how do you know if you have to wick up? Thanks Kellie

Can you list some good distributors for candle making dyes? Thanks Kellie
