tootie04 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 OK, I got my sample of premier wicks from wick it yesterday. I am testing 8oz sq mason jars with EL Mill 70% & IGI 6006 30% Does a 770 sound like a good starting point??Also 6oz tins...same mix. I have no idea what to try in these??TIAtootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunFlames Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 The only time I used a premier it was a 785 in a 3.5 inch apothecary jar. It burned OK. I probibly could have wicked down a bit. I was comparing a bunch of wicks side by side. I never retested smaller. This test was done with CBA.I think I'd try smaller than a 770 since you have paraffin in the mix.HTHDanielle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizbizzyb Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 If the 770 works I think I have some I can send you...maybe around 500....let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisterkaren Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 We use C-3 and use the 750 in an 8 oz. jelly and a 770 in our 16 oz mason. If it is a hard to burn oil we have to go up to a 755 and 775. We are testing Patcholi right now and are having a heck of a time finding the right wick for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to pour a couple one with 770 and one with a smaller one today so hopefully I will know by Monday.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tootie04 Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 The smallest one I have is a 760 so I will try one of each (770 & 760) The FO I have to test will be here Monday.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
