Hi all ! Hope you're well !
Does anyone work with RBW in lotion bars ? I would like to know if the following works for you:
Apparently, RBW can be worked this way: raising the temp above melting point, adding the other butters. When all the butters are dissolved, start mixing while the pot is in the water bath. Then take it out of the bath while keeping the mixing going, until it reaches about 55 degrees C (130F). It should be then more "stable" and allow the less heat-resistant ingredients to be added.
So far I have been melting all my ingredients together and I poured almost straight away before the RBW solidified again.
However, I have had mixed results as it sometimes seem like the batter is not homogeneous nor smooth-looking on the surface...
I was wondering if anyone had had good results with the above-mentioned method, or another one as a matter of fact ?
Thanks !!
