Hi everyone,
I made my first log yesterday and I couldn't help myself and I've cut it into bars today. Maybe it hasn't been 24 hours, but close to it. I decided to use cocoa powder and I think I went WAY over the line with it, but it doesn't look too bad. My swirls are not all that good either, but hey...
Anyways, how long should I cure these bars for? They feel a little too oily. Is this because I've cut them too early? Will it go away with time? I used the following formula:
75% Olive Oil
20% Coconut Oil
5% Castor Oil
5% lye discount
120F Temperature
Thanks, Adrian.-
