\jeffsangie said:I tried this and I am very disapointed I hope we can still use the batch. I started out with the cows milk and when we added the lye the liquid mixture (milk and lye) turned a rusty orange color. I still added the oils and all but the whole batc looks orange. I was hoping for a nice white ceramy looking soap.
What happened? WHat did I do wrong? I would like to do better next time.
Yes. Add the milk after you mix your oils and lye water, but before trace. The orange soap should be fine to use. It will most likely mellow out to some sort of beige.jeffsangie said:So I should add the milk last after the oils?
Would the orange soap still be ok to use?
