Wick'n'Wax Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Hi,I've poured two apocethery jars which I've tested over the last two days. One was lavender with an ECO4 and the other pumpkin & vanilla with an ECO6.The ECO4 has burnt lovely, clearing the edge of the jar etc, but the ECO6 has some hangups still on the side.Shouldn't the 6 burn fiercer and give a bigger meltpool? or have I got it wrapped round my neck again lolforgot to mention, they had an initial 3 hour burn and a 12hour powerburn today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I always wick up my pumpkin/spicy scents up about 2 sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beth-VT Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Yes, it's possible for a smaller wick to create a bigger melt pool. Of course, the wax, type of wick, trim length, container, all have everything to do with whether or not this holds true. A larger wick should consume more wax, but depending on conditions, it may burn slightly more than it is creating (or equal to) thus creating a smaller burn pool than a smaller sized wick. HTH.

Wick'n'Wax Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 well at least I know now that the 6 is great with the lavender. Shame I can't smell it, full of cold. Will have to check hot throw later when colds gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
