Got side tracked and never got to see the responses until now! Anywho, after a few days, no gummyness to report. Must have taken it out of the mold too early.

The last few loaves, all with different liquids, have come out somewhat gummy(?) on the surface, and overall the bars are taking longer to harden. Live in a very hot/dry area. All go through gel phase. Different oils used in each batch. The only common denominator is that I have increased...
