Well I certainly was not trying to make it seize up :mrgreen:, but I was trying for a fast trace because I wanted to make a jagged pencil line. This means the batter has to be stiff enough to texture. So, I did go with a 2:1 water:lye ratio, and I also used a Sage & Juniper FO that I know accelerates trace. But I soaped at room temp so I was really surprised when it went from emulsion to pancake batter to cottage cheese in less than a minute. The brown half is moroccan red clay but it was already hardening before I added it so I don't think it was a contributor.

EDIT: oh yeah, there was a lot of titanium dioxide in it too, if that makes a difference.

[bodhi]

This is a great looking soap, and if it is a error as you state then i would tell you leave it alone. if lathers great and does not have any lingering lye then i would tell you that you got a great creation on your hand. it could possibly be a signature soap to represent you.

It's gorgeous! I love it.

It's definitely growing on me. I may even try it again. If it is reproducible it might, in fact, be a viable technique for getting a different effect.
