I've never cried over soap before, but I almost started crying over this! [emoji30]
I made a soap last night with earl grey tea as the replacement for the water in my lye solution.
I think I know what the problem is though, thankfully.
The recipe was 80% lard and 20% coconut oil, with a 5% SF.
I think next time I either need to up the SF (10%? 20%?) or take it out of the mold a lot sooner (only been 19 hours).
Ugh! [emoji35]
Live and learn, I guess. Rebatch, here I come!
