I tried my first batch of Castile soap. using the soap calc for a 1lb batch .I used the ingredients exact. 80% was olive oil and 20% was coconut oil. I used .5 oz tea tree oil.I couldn't get it to trace very much after lots of stirring and using stick mixer. But I finally just decided to pour it into the molds. The next day it hasn't set. I can stick my finger right through the soap like soft butter..Is this normal or should I call it a fail? I've heard that olive oil soaps can take quits a long time to set.. So should I wait it out or is it ruined? Thanks!
