Candle Making API
Candle-making maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the wax, fragrance and burn-time numbers a chandler scales a batch with. The recipe endpoint sizes a pour from the container water volume: wax (g) per candle = volume(ml) × fill% × wax density (soy ≈ 0.9, beeswax ≈ 0.96, paraffin ≈ 0.9 g/ml), so a 250 ml jar at 80 % fill takes 180 g of soy wax; it adds the fragrance oil at the load percentage (commonly 6–10 %, never above the wax's maximum) and multiplies everything by the number of candles for the total wax, total fragrance and batch weight. The burn endpoint estimates how long a candle lasts: burn time ≈ wax grams ÷ burn rate, where a typical container candle consumes about 7–9 g of wax an hour. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for candle-making, home-fragrance, handmade-craft and maker app developers, batch-calculator and recipe tools, and chandlery education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Metric: millilitres, grams, percent. Live, nothing stored. 2 compute endpoints. A planning aid — pour tests and your wax datasheet always win.
