@Zany_in_CO and @Marley thank you both. Great advice. The Failor book... I'll look for another source rather than amazon since it is quoted 730 USD.

Thank you Zany. I had read that comment and still found a sparkle of self confidence in attempting.... I will now follow your suggestion and keep o reading about cream soap, and maybe even look for Catherine Failor's books.

Thank you. Will go read. Oh cool. Will go read your recipe and procedure too and will see you in that thread for questions. Thank you Resolvable owl

Hello cream soapers. I stumbled on this thread and though it's a quite an old one and probably its originator not active here, I would like to ask if any of you would like to share a photo of your cream cured soap in its pump bottle, and possibly a photo of its lather in the hands. Or has...

Beautiful Beautiful colours. The soap seems almost translucent. What colours did you use and do they wash out staining the soap dish?

Thank you zany. Soybean oil and Evo oil SAPS values are very similar. I can't wait to go digging those roots. Will check if the leaves of rumex are edible too. ! :)

Hello Zany, I do not use pomace since so far I have only produced EVO. But I have used a batch of olive oil from 8 years ago I had forgotten in a cellar, which had hence a higher acidity. It would be interesting for me to measure the SAP of my oil over the years, to see if that changes too...

How does this soap feel on the skin and does it make bubbles, lather, creaminess...it looks like a titanoc job!

Well, Resolvable owl this is already an amazing amount of information. Thank you very much. I'm glad you found solace in the Arezzo landscape. About those cubes, i made those in 2014 and yes, I cut a hole through them with a cylindric kitchen utensil that I saw perfect for soap, and then melted...

It truly is :)

Hello beautiful people of a treasured place as this forum. I am thrilled to be part of this community and to be able to ask questions and dive into all the priceless information contained here. I am Italian, from a town north of Rome, called Viterbo, and am a farmer. Specifically I am an olive...

Thank you very much

Hello Ali, How did you make your recipe with both faux sea, GM and sorbitol, do you mind posting it? Or linking me to it?

Thank you for your report. I am keeping a journal on all the addings, EO, FO, powders, and other random things that make the mixture difficult to pour into the mold, or trace too quickly or completely seize. I might make a post once I have enough information or give it to one of our forum...

Thank so much! Yes this helps (I had to look it up)

Hello Zany, Sorry to ask. I am Italian, could you please say what a quart amounts to? I searched on the internet and I got too many different results. Thank you
