    master-batching sugar and citric acid solution. Possible?

    I do a masterbatch sugar solution and just keep it in the fridge. Works fine and easier than desolving it everytime. Ive been thinking of doing the same with CA also.

    Soap/syndet hybrid bar

    Ive been thinking of doing exactly that too.. LTHP hybrid with SCI & SCS as a dish block.. can't think of any reason it wouldn't work and maybe be longer lasting than 100% CO😊 going to source some SCS to go with my SCI and give it a try.. Unless anyone can suggest a reason it wont be any better..

    You could try cleaning them off a little and welding them.. worth a try they were so pretty... nothing to loose now😊

    Close to giving up soap making

    I started originally with recipes I found online and made them until I was comfortable enough with the process and had quite a number of successful batches.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Lol.. I overshare..( PCSF adding super fat after Cook.. in hot process to get a more fluid soap.) I use a drill bit by hand to screw the hole in.. Id think any soap could be drilled at right cure stage... before getting too hard.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Thanks... I used 2 bottles of reduced citrus beer as half lye water...HP once cooked with PCSF, mixed AC with half. Put beer half in mold roughly, sprayed finely with Isopropyl Alcohol before adding AC pencil line.. checked it wetted -must admit I sprayed a lil bit more (very finely) before...

    Well I finally put the rope in my Rustic Beer Soaps today.. very happy with them.. next up some Coconut Ice with Madder Root layers. 😊 got my grandson next week for the school holidays so it will be a Soap-free week here..

    Advice please.

    Thank you.. 😊 Might rebatch with AC in some PCSF for mechanic soap and do another batch of dish soap as I like my dish soap clean n' white.
  18. Jillyb

    Advice please.

    Yes... but I love HP but for the 'sake of the soap' maybe I should go back to CP just for the lil bowl molds😊
  19. Jillyb

    Advice please.

    Yes but I mold some of it in little bowls for gifts and wanted it to be more fluid to look nicer. Next time Im just going to leave it looking more rustic.
