A tat is categorized as road rash. Scabbing is common. If left to dry out. So, an antibacterial ointment is recommended. For the first few days. With a fragrance free moisturizer after that. Most of the ones. I have come in contact with. Where petroleum based. Something non petroleum would...

Learning a lot thru these challenges. This is my first attempt at the ciaglia design. Already planning on my next usage of this style. Crazy 8,s are coming......

Try adding ground oates at a heavier trace. Kaolin clay with oils. Will get it hydrated. At heavy trace clay will just accelerate things. Sea salt? How much, what for?

How heavy is the exfoliate. You are adding. Would determine when to add it. With oils, prior to lye solution. Or at a heavy trace. Me, ground oat flour with oils. Pumice, poppy seeds or salt at a medium to heavy trace.

That's a wrap.... I enjoyed the Ciaglia method very much. Batches planned for next week. Ciaglia Bella!

Hi everybody! My first Ciaglia attempt, along with a new recipe. The stats.... Harold's Purple Crayon (mm) bottom, king tut gold (mm) mica line, TD for the top. Along with shreds from here, there and every were. Black Raspberry Vanilla (ns) fragrance oil. Had a bit left in the bottle. I liked...

Calling it a night, I'll cut in the morning. Can't wait, everything went as planned. Checked out the entry thread. Man this is gonna be a tough one. Yowza!

@CLMP, I was going to jump with you. But house guests decided to stay another day.

"I just hope everything is evenly mixed." you can tell from the pic it is not. Batter should be same trace, through out. Whether light, medium or heavy. This should be ok, but zap test for sure. To get a good rustic look. Use a heavy trace. Plop drop heavy. The one that got away. 😂

For uncured bars, something airy, with a bit of space between each bar. A lot of options. I used bread trays. But they get heavy. For cured/finished bars, something not to large, with good bottom support. (did I mention heavy) I have been using these for finished bars. They fit 3 dozen 5 oz...

My first time too. Want to hold hands? When we jump? It's not that high! This is just speculation on my part. We are just chopping up shreds. To itty bitty bits. So I am not sure if temp. Plays a big part in that. Hopefully others will set us straight. Adding oats? anything I can add prior to...

Hi, people are always complaining about Amazon eo's. Can you or have you thought about using reputable sources?

HEy! don't give away all my secrets. 😉 Wink, Wink. Digital inventory tools. Work well, when you can keep them up to date. I never could. Fragrance organization.... on a shelf, sorted by masculine, feminine, seasonal. Kind of, sort of, something like that.

Seems they like my GM recipe. Verse my Lard recipe. I keep a loose cover. Over my curing bars.

Another benefit of dropping beeswax. Lowers your working Temps. Please, I have never heard palm oil ,Castor oils. Being referenced as toxic. Am I missing something? Can you explain. I use Castor oil in every batch. Should I be?

Hi, Flax seed oil, maybe at a lower %. Combined with other oils. But not 100% Oils, "Sitting around for years", how old is old?? Crock pot on Hi, batter drying out? Turn it down. It does *?,:%/%%^ when things don't work out. Good luck.

Pringle can texture. Been there. Lol One would assume the silver lining. In the can would be OK. Recipe suggestion. OO 40%, Palm 30%, CO 25%, Castor 5%.

That's a lot of water for that recipe. Try lowering your water. 2.0:1 should be enough. For that recipe.
