I am trying to get more consistency in the size of my soaps. My usual mold always holds 100 ounces of batter. That includes oils, lye, water, fragrace, etc.
The problem is, I want to try a fragrance that supposedly will not turn brown with the addition of stabilizer. Ill need to add 3oz of stabilizer into my batch.
So my question is, in order to still get my regular size soap bar, do I need to discount the batter by 3oz before I add in the 3 oz of stabilizer? Or will the stabilizer evaporate after curing (there by I can just add it on top of my normal batch size, without increasing the size of my soap bars)?
I hope I'm explaining this right. Im confusing myself, just trying to articulate what I mean. lol
