    Is it possible for sodium lactate to cause out-of-control quick trace?

    I use sodium lactate and kaolin clay in all my recipes and I never have issues with them. I add my kaolin directly to my oils and blend it in before adding my lye water. Other clays need prepping. I would look at your soap temperatures but I'm leaning toward it being the fo. I worked with a fast...

    Temperature for CP

    50-70 Celsius is high, especially 70 which is 158 F. I would think it could be the reason your batter accelerates fast. I soap closer to room temp, 70-80 F. I'll go up to about 100 F if I'm doing a simple soap and am not worried about speeding things up.

    Soap curing

    On metal racks I cover them with the rubbery, breathable shelf liner. I pick it up in rolls at the dollar store. I also use large cardboard donut boxes from work. I rescue them before they hit the garbage and repurpose them. I spoke holes throughout the lid and sides and line the boxes with...
