Ts silicone mold

[Meganmischke]

I haven't used this mold for about 2 years. It is the one from America soap supplies. How much oil does it hold? I had it written on the bottom but it rubbed off. The site says up to 4lbs for peaked soaps 3.75 for flat. I have measured and calculated I was just wondering how much you all use. Thanks

I don't have that one, but Soaping 101 has a tutorial on how to calculate your recipe size for each mold.

I just saw this question. It holds between 36-40 oz of oil depending on your water discount. I like to make soap in silicone molds that is 33-35% water for easier release. The TS silicone mold due to its deep cavity keeps the batter moist longer so a slight water discount really makes a difference in unmolding.

Thanks i did all may xmas soaps in it. I used a 33% lye solution and 42 oz of oil. This got me a peaked semi high top plus 2 soap cupcakes. Worked out perfectly.
