I use a bit of water to dissolve the powdered milk and mix it into my liquid oils before mixing in the lye.

I typically let the soap go through gel stage. But, occasionally I freeze the soap to prevent gel.

I mix my GM powder with Sodium Lactate and My Kaolin Clay and make a slurry. I do this because I have miss putting in these ingredients. Too many containers I guess.

I think the polls don't work for the mobile version. I guess that means I have to get off my lazy butt and go sit in another chair. First World problems I tell ya. ☺

Found it!!!
I add the milk to oils before lye. I'm pretty new to soap making. Maybe have 10 batches so far. Most of them with Milk. I have only done one batch ungelled. Rest allowed to gel. So far haven't seen a huge difference (look-wise). But have yet tried it out yet ( ungelled).
I have a question. So if my oils are room temp will the milk not mix as well? I have noticed with one of my batches it seems exfoliating when I didn't add anything but powdered milk and FO.
