[encore1074]

Hello

I Have A Plain Round Tumbler That Is About 3 And A Quarter Inches In Diameter.id Like A Starting Point Of A Wick Size Using Pure Soy And 2 Wicks? The Wax Is 415 Soy

Hi -

What type of wicks do you have to test with...are you adding scent/color additives etc...?

I don't have any experience with that particular jar that you are using but I have a similar size diam jar (3 1/8" diam) that I can double wick with CD4 or 5 using unscented/uncolored 415.

I personally would not double wick it. I have used tumblers that are 7 oz. w/the same diameter you have and in pure soy - 8% FO, no dye and I could wick them with 51z's or HTP105 - single wick. I try not to double wick anything (unless I have too) it is just another wick (7 to 9 cents each and then another glue-dot) Remember, it all adds up and with the cost of soy wax and FO going up, we need all the help we can get. I hope this helps:p

Try a single CDN 14.

Yes Ill Be Using A Little Dye And About 6 Percent Fo.i Just Figured 2 Wicks Might Be Better.maybe Ill Get A Sample Pack Of Some Larger Wicks And See What Happens.

I Hear The Cdn Wicks Are Very Good For Soy And Palm Wax. Thanks

You should be able to get a good burn with one wick in that size (unless you just want to use 2). I like the 60C or 62C, but the CD's and HTP's work also single wicked.
