I have made 3 batches of soap now and all but the last one turned out.
Here is the ingredients. Coconut oil 5 oz Corn Oil 5 oz Olive Oil 5 oz Palm Kernel Oil 5 oz Palm Oil 15 oz Lard 25 oz goats milk 23 oz lye 4.5 oz. I ran the measurement thought the lye calculator. I use a stick blender and also hand stir.
It came to a trace just fine about 15-20 minutes. I added rose fo and colored half of it poured into 3 ½" mold. Every thing seemed to be fine. When I cut it 2 days later towards the bottom end of the mold I started seeing very few but some white spots and a few ( 3 or 4) place that were white and still moist. It is an off white color. I have made the same recipe in a smaller batch and it was fine. The rose scent does not come out. It still smells a little like lye. I added the scent and color at trace. Thanks for your help.
