Curing Soap

[SoapMaking]

Hello fellow Soapers!

This has cured for 10 days now in a well ventilated cool area. This was a corner loaf and I’m wondering if this will go away once it is fully cured.

This was a 50lb pour in a square HDPE mold.

Any thoughts?

It looks like your soap didn't gel to the edge of your mold. It might even out with more curing time, or you could try this


I haven't done it personally, but I know others have with some success.

This is very interesting! I’ll try it.

These are actually Goat Milk Bars and I try to avoid Gel Phase altogether. I may try and warm the room for the next batch to see if it reaches the edges. The room is around 58-62 degrees all the time.

That's interesting, I had no idea it was possible to do that after the cut
