Pourwick

About Pourwick

Pourwick is a candle maker's offline workshop calculator for planning pours, fragrance loads, costs, recipes, and production batches without a slow website or spreadsheet.

Get the numbers that make or break a candle: how much wax to melt, how much fragrance to add, what the batch costs, when it is ready after curing, and what to check before you sell, gift, or scale the recipe.

Version 1.2 adds Batch Plan, a production ticket for makers who pour more than one candle at a time. Choose a pour date and overage percentage, then Pourwick builds a shareable worksheet with material staging totals, cure-ready date, wick prep count, label notes, warnings, and QC checkpoints.

WAX & FRAGRANCE, MEASURED RIGHT
• Size a pour by container volume or the maker's water-weight method.
• Includes soy, coconut-soy, coconut, paraffin, parasoy, beeswax, palm, and gel wax profiles.
• Calculates wax weight, fragrance-oil weight, total pour weight, and batch totals.
• Supports fragrance load as percentage of wax or total weight.
• Flags fragrance loads above the wax's typical capacity.
• Gives a wick-size starting point from vessel diameter.

BATCH PLAN
• Build a production ticket from the current recipe.
• Add workshop overage for spills, pour pots, and scale loss.
• See wax, fragrance, total pour weight, wicks, cost, and projected profit.
• Get a cure-ready date based on the wax profile.
• Follow pre-warm, melt, fragrance, pour, cure, and burn-test checkpoints.
• Copy or share the batch ticket with your notes or production log.

PRICE YOUR CANDLES
• Calculates material cost per candle from wax, fragrance, wick, vessel, and extras.
• Suggests price from your markup.
• Shows profit, gross margin, material total, and batch profit.

SCENT, BURN, RECIPES, AND LEARNING
• Split a scent blend across up to four oils.
• Estimate burn time from pour weight and wax profile.
• Enter a measured burn rate from a burn test.
• Save and reload recipes locally.
• Read offline guides, reference tables, wick guidance, and glossary terms.

Pourwick is a planning aid, not a substitute for testing. Densities, fragrance capacities, temperatures, and cure windows are typical values that vary by brand and blend. Always follow supplier technical data sheets, IFRA limits, warning-label requirements, and burn-test every new recipe before selling or gifting a candle.
