Getting gummy bear stage not molasses

So before I start adding more water/liquid I will concentrate on not overheating my batter and let the lye do the cooking for me.

Brilliant!

Thanks for sharing that! I love the look of the gelled soap. Very clear too! So far mine has come out clear but with a light amber color. Sort of like honey.

LOL I just realized this is the same video from IL's thread? Sometimes it helps to rewatch a video after you made a batch or two so you can pick up some things you overlooked or forgot.

PERFECTO! Keep in mind, that amber color can go darker, depending on the oils/fats used.

I know what you mean, Candy. I watch that video every time before I make glycerin LS. It's funny how you think you know what you're doing but even then you need a little memory bump... at least, I do. :crazy:

That is not the same video, or at least not the video originally referenced.

Well I guess it won't hurt me to watch that one again too!
