    A light bulb just went off. Now I completely understand their wicks. I had purchased a variety pack and I couldn't figure out one size to another. This was the BEST explanation and full of information!

    Thank you so much for this video. I have been a soapmaker for 23 years and have always wanted to make candles but always stop when it comes to the wicks. I am hoping to practice over the summer so I can make some candles for Christmas gifts for family this year. My eyes were glazing over on the Maksey site trying to figure out wooden wicks. This has helped so much!!!

    Amazing insight. Your delivery was top notch. This is exactly what was on mind , trying to figure this concept out and boom came across your video. Perfect timing. Can you please do a video on cotton wicks,particularly on the natural waxes -soy coco/apricot etc. Thank you!!

    Thanks for this helpful video! I currently swtiched from Coco Soy to 100% soy and was struggling to find the right wick. Also, what about the length to cut the wick? I found mine works better when I cut them to 1/8 instead of 1/4.

    This is one of the best videos for wood wick guides I have seen. Thank you so much for the detailed info! I’m curious if you have experience with their X wicks? I’ve been struggling with HT in my coco-apricot candles. Can’t tell if it’s my formula (tried several) or if it’s the wick type.

    Thank you so much for this video. It is very helpful. I recently started working with coconut soy wax and did not realize cocosoy uses a wick that is not as thick as the wick you use for 100% soy which is the wax I customarily work with and definitely use the .04 wick for it. The .02 recommendation for coconut soy saves me from spending a lot of money to test different wicks.

    Great vid! But I'm still trying to figure out the best width size for a 3.25-3.5 in candle vessel with coco apricot wax. I know I need a booster but still not sure of the right width.

    Start with .5” wide and booster 03. And go from there. You may not need to go to .625.

    I am so glad you have a video about this. I have never used a wooden wick and I want to try it. I'm working on my order with Makesy but I still don't think I have it right as my first go at it. The more I watch the video with the dough bowl and this one the more frustrated I get but thankfully your voice is soothing. I have Virgin Coco/Soy and their 5 oz tin with a diameter approx. 3.5 "diameter and another vessel with a 2.5 inch diameter. Which do you recommend? And what do you recommend when i use coco/apricot? I appreciate your help and wave my white surrendering flag lol!

    I understand your frustration!!! With the 3.5” try crackling 02 booster .5” and with the 2.5” diameter try the crackling single ply 3 or 4 in a .325” I hope this helps!

    If the diameter of your 10oz jar is 3.4” then I would start with the .5”’crackling booster 02
