My first sea salt CP recipe

[Obsidian]

My pink salt is medium grind and its a bit scratchy, I won't use it again unless I grind it first. You can buy fine black salt online, I saved my medium black for the tops of loaves.
To do swirls, scent the whole batch then separate before adding the salt. You might want to keep your salt around 50% so it doesn't thicken as quick and soap cool.

That's actually good to know lol...I bought a salt bar from another company (handcrafted) and when I use it, it scratches up my skin really bad... I can only wipe in on now after lathering it up. I made some myself and it was smooth with no scratchiness. I thought I did something wrong lol

Another reason not to use rock salt for your bars.

I personally save my money and use regular Pacific sea salt, that I buy for $.10 per lb and add in my own charcoal

Can I ask you where do you buy it that cheap? thanx!!:shock:

When I posted this it was still .10 per lb, it has gone up, but is still cheap. Winco Foods in the bulk section
