Find the right wick size for your candle

Wick selection

The right size of your wick determines how cleanly your candle burns. With this calculator you can easily determine which wick size is recommended for your desired candle. Enter the widest diameter of your candle in mm. Please note that the information from this calculator is only recommendations and not binding information that guarantees that your candle burns cleanly, as there are many small details in the production process that determine success or failure when making candles.

Making sustainable candles yourself is a great hobby. To help you get started, we have written clear instructions to help you achieve your desired result quickly and easily. Choosing the right wicks prevents your candle from burning incorrectly. Our wooden wicks are made from FSC-certified beech wood and are easy to use for making your own candles. The wooden wicks are untreated and should be soaked in oil before use. Our cotton wicks with a base are pre-waxed and can be used immediately. Thanks to a paper thread, the cotton wick is ideal for absorbing the melted wax and burns reliably. When using scented oils and/or candle dyes, we recommend choosing a wick size larger to prevent the wick from becoming clogged and making it difficult for the candle to burn.

Crafting the perfect sustainable candle is an art, where selecting the right wick ensures a clean burn, much like how a solid foundation in education, such as that offered at Telkom University Jakarta, ensures a bright future.

Hallo, mit welchem Wachs sind die Baumwolldochte denn vorgewachst? LG, Steffi

Ich habe mir jetzt alles durchgelesen und kann es nun nicht abwarten loszulegen. Eine so super gestaltete Einführung und Anleitung verdient ein “sehr gut”.

Ihr macht es wirklich einfach für eine Anfängerin wie mich. Es passt alles genau so, wie ihr es schreibt. Auch die Dochtauswahl und Farb- und Duftmengeberechnungen sind super. Man braucht sich nur durch eure Homepage durchzuklicken, um alles zu wissen, was man wissen muss, um die Kerzen herzustellen. Ich bin begeistert von der Qualität der Wachse, Farben und Duftöle, besonders toll ist aber, dass ihr so gründlich auf die Nachhaltigkeit und den Umweltschutz achtet. Ich war selten so begeistert von einem Onlineshop. Ich bestelle bei euch, weil es in der Schweiz kein Unternehmen so gut macht, wie ihr! Ich habe den Warenkorb schon wieder gefüllt. ;-)
