Does anybody make hp castile? I'm going to try it this week. I just wondered about the cure time. Anybody have any advice for me?
 
I have never made an HP castile, but I did make a Batch that was 70% OO. It was slower to trace, but not too bad with a stick blender. It will be soft so you won't be able to unmold it as soon as most HP. I used SL to make it harder and easier to unmold.
 
It won't shorten your cure time significantly, IMO. For me, Castille needs at least 6 months to begin to be nice to use.
 
I'm going to have to disagree with Judy (which I never do), HP Castile doesn't need 6 months, just my opinion. It does need longer than a couple of weeks though, I would say a month. My HP Castile is hard and mild in 3 weeks.

CP- 6 months or a year. HP is a different beast.
