I suppose this is a good opportunity to say quit your yakking, hehe
Yeah, go for it, find out what you can and experiment.
Don't wait for anyone's permission, or wait to be demotivated (like what happening to me on thread 2 at the moment)
I think they are trying to save you from a disaster.
Some people sail into Soapmaking and others struggle.
To test your soaps against one another you’ll need a simple HP and simple CP and a fluid HP all of the same recipe. If you change one component then you can’t really compare them.
I think the others are saying since you’ll eventually have to make all three start with the easy one and work your way up. But it’s only a helpful suggestion. Go your own road but tell us what happens with each try as we are all very curious. What works for me in hot Australia with my oils and climate and soaping environment and methods may not work for you in Ireland so it’s always interesting to hear how others go.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say “I told you so” we’ll all just dive in and help you sort it out if needed.
