How to use it
- Enter the capacity of the container and your fill level.
- Choose the wax and the fragrance load.
- Enter the number of candles in the batch.
How it works
Pour = capacity × fill × wax density × candles. Wax = pour ÷ (1 + fragrance load). Oil = wax × fragrance load. One US fluid ounce = 29.57 ml.
Worked example
A 240 ml jar poured to 85% with soy: 204 ml × 0.9 = 183.6 g. With a 6% load, wax = 183.6 ÷ 1.06 = 173.2 g and fragrance oil = 10.4 g.
Tips
- Weigh wax and oil on a scale; volume measures are unreliable.
- Do a test burn and watch for a full melt pool in a few hours.
