The kitchen is filled with the heady aroma of beeswax as we turn the cappings to good use. While thrones publish the recommended size of wick for their silicone candle moulds, I have some from Ab elo that have no indication.

Any guidelines or published info?

Cheers

Moulds or wicks from ab lo?
Diameter is the important factor. Multiwicks are a bit more difficult to sort out, but wax is wax whether in a thrones mould or an ab lo one, as long as you are not diluting your wax with tallow.
 
Hi RAB

Both moulds and wicks from AB.. I'm hoping that I can find a product leaflet to match the mould to the wick (we have a number of both). Otherwise a burn test will be the way forward. All good fun. Thanks for the advice.

Don't Lysons have a pdf English catalogue online- might be worth a look?
