Finally got my first zap

After making 8 batches of soap, I finally have experienced my first zap. My husband was convinced everyone was making a joke...I promised him it was a real thing, despite his thinking. I made a batch last evening and insulated. I just went to check on it, and there was some slight condensation on the top. I thought since it is a covered mold, and was insulated that it was just moisture. Nope...it definately zapped. So, my question is...what exactly does this mean? Is this just part of the full saponification process. It's not been 24 hours yet. Should I keep it covered or take off insulation?

It could be still be condensation that has pulled some lye into it. I would uncover and let it do its thing, it should be fine.

Thank you! I was weirdly excited to finally feel what I kept hearing about.
