I have a four part question. 1. Has anyone used usual liquids for rebatching; such as tomato juice, lemon juice? 2. Would I need to add anything as preservative? 3. If I add goat milk for rebatching would it cause the soap to go rancid? 4. Would the benefical goodness of these liquids be any better by adding them to a rebatch rather than adding them to a CP batch?
 
1. Tomato and lemon juice are both acidic. This would increase your superfat an unknown amount. You would be wise to only add water or any missing oils to a rebatch, as any foods/juices would likely mold and rot.
2. You would be running the risk of mold and rot if you use anything but water or missing oils.
3. See answers 1 & 2.
4. See answers 1 & 2.
