Okay, now I'm confused again. I've been using my very first well-cured soaps for some time now and I've found some very bright white spots inside them. I think they look a bit like powder. The first thing I came up with was obviously lye, but the spots do not zap nor color paper napkin brown (I dug some spots out, placed them on a napkin and dropped some water on them ---> nothing happened).
What could this be? The soap itself is brown and I can't think of anything that could have caused this - except lye, but I think that's not possible either.
