Yeah, I imagine that's how I'd use it too if I did the evaporated kind. I'm wondering though, what the effects of using evaporated goats milk without adding any water would be. Just straight evaporated goats milk.

I just looked up Neroli essential oil up on ebay... holy crap that's expensive! $149 for 8 oz??

I plan on making a new batch of goats milk soap in the next couple of days. Any time I've done a goats milk soap I use fresh and pour it in ice trays to freeze. When I was cruising the store I looked at evaporated goats milk in a can and it got me thinking. How would soap turn out if you used...

Okay tonight I will cut and post pictures here. Thank you!

And should I insulate it?

Okay I think I saved it. But it looks horrendous! Its definitely a weird texture like it has a ton air bubbles mixed throughout. Thank you guys for all your help :]. How long should it take until I can unmold?

Thanks guys. I waited about 40 mins and hadn't gotten any replies so I just winged it and put it in the crock pot. The recipe has 30% olive, 25% coconut, 25% lard, 15% shea butter and 5% castor with full water amount. I have the crock pot set on low and I've been stirring it every so often. It's...

here is a picture of it :/

So the title says it all. I've been making soap for a while now and decided to soap at room temperature with olive coconut lard shea and castor with lavender essential oil. I got a false trace immediately and i need help to save it. I've never rebatched before and I am looking you guys to come...

I have some bars from my very first batch from several weeks ago. It's made out of 100% lard with 5% SF. Well I used it in the shower and as I was washing I noticed when I went to wash off my hand was dragging across my skin. It def wasn't silky at all! LOL! I was wondering if this is normal? Or...

I'm not cool enough to have one of those..apparently! BUT I did just go out and buy a coffee grinder today. So, Hurahh!

Actually with my first sniff tests I thought I was only going to do the orange/patch blend. But then I added the Bergamot to my sniff test and it was delightful!. Hmmm I don't know what to think about all this conflicting views on how much EOs to use ppo..

I am going to make a batch of soap with some of my new oils I got from BB. I wanted to use 2 parts 10x orange oil, 1 part Patchouli, and 1 part Bergamot. I would use it at a rate of 1oz ppo. Do any of these oils speed up trace? I intend on using some natural colorants as well. Thanks!

I have some activated charcoal in nugget form. (for aquarium filters) I want to make some soap with black swirled into it. My problem is that I don't have a coffee grinder to grind it into powder. I only have a blender and a food processor. I'm wondering if I could try to "infuse" the charcoal...

lately I've had to find it int the hunting section. I BET you it's there.

Something else to consider. Nail will also grow stronger, longer and faster with increased circulation! Maybe making soap gets your fingers moving a bit more!

How long should I leave it in the crock pot for? I have it on low. So like 5 hours?

DELISH! I would much rather have this than flowers that die. I'm not a fan of those fruit edible arrangements, but I would be a fan of THIS!

Thank you! Can I use the whole flower top or just the petals?

So I just got my order of calendula. I am going to infuse it into my olive oil with the crock pot. Does anyone have any advice? I wasnt sure how much herb to put into my quart glass jars, what temp setting to put my crock pot on, how long, and lid on or off? I'm a greenhorn! OR can I go as far...
