I recently asked on this forum about whether any used cow's milk in soap, as so much milk (1% milkfat) is wasted at work (I teach in an elementary school). I was encouraged to try it and test the results. I made 2 batches, same recipe and FO. Both turned out nicely, but the milk one does have a smoother "feel" to it, very nice! I did freeze my milk then thaw to "slush," but it still turned out light brown, so I am guessing I added my lye too quickly and/or the water my lye container was sitting in was not cool enough. Despite the brown color, I do have a great soap. Thanks to all who encouraged me to experiment.
