Selecting a Wick

[noriduffee]

Hi!

I currently use (and love) IGI 4627 Comfort Blend. I have tested CD wicks, the zincs, the LX, and the HTP. HTP are my favorite, however, need help picking the size.

I tested in a 22 oz apothecary jar the following wicks:

HTP126

HTP 1212

HTP 1312

The 126 and 1312 have produced similar results with the first two burns. No smoking on the 126 when I blow it out, 1312 smokes a bit and leaves a bit of soot at top of container. They both have left a tiny but of wax hangup on the sides (hoping this will catch up within the next few burns).

Providing they keep perfoming the same, how do I pick? Do I pick the smaller or the larger? Would the larger give a better scent throw? Does this all matter?????

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

I wouldn't pick either yet. Finish testing the ones you've started. You never know what might happen by then. You may find both work fine or that neither will (still having hangup at the end).

Thanks! I really want to avoid double wicking. But I might take out the 1212 that didn't work, remelt and double wick it tonight to see how it works. Cross your fingers!
