    Shampoo Bar 'soap puck' molds?

    I use hand presser puck, your syndet must be kind of dry to do it. I found the weight the best weight for one puck it is 67 g , it gives me very nice bar, I got new one smaller one so again I will try to get the optimal weight it all depends what mold you use

    de-funk de pits

    Do you think I do not use emulsifier? Co leaves awful stains so does cocoa butter, The easiest to wash off is babassu oil.

    de-funk de pits

    what about stains on clothes from CO, you can not wash it off. I can not use baking soda due the immediate rash, does not matter how little I put there. Laprerielady we do not use tsp here, weight or percentage,

    Infusing Daisies and Dandelions...

    the OP is infusing daisies and claiming the benefits, Most flowers are toxic daisies maybe are not but benefits of them in oil used for soapmaking; doubt it. It does have label appeal though. However calendula is family of daisies too,

    Infusing Daisies and Dandelions...

    Leucidal Liquid complete and microbial testing...

    No it will not work, I use Suttocide A it works on high ph, but if you use citrusy scents it will get the weird reddish color . Leucidal Liquid Complete, constantly fails microbial testing
