Hi,
I made a 3lb batch of soap, which I was hoping to be able to reuse. I read that you can melt a percentage of an old batch with fresh oils to make a new batch. Has anyone tried this method? Thoughts or things I should know before I try it? Obviously you would deduct a percentage of the oils and possibly scent of it was strong enough from the new batch, would you also deduct a percentage from the lye and water?
Thanks so much!
