I read that Saponifier Magazine has been revamped with a new name--Making Soap--or something like that. It's now available in print format delivered right to your door for an annual subscription fee of $60.00 for 8 issues I think. What about this magazine would make it worth that much? I am...

I have some Bayberry Root Powder and shredded Sandalwood bark. Has anyone used either in CP soap? Tried to grind the bark into powder, didn't work. Could it be infused in an oil? I understand Bayberry Root Powder was used long ago in candle and soap making along with medicinal uses but can't...
