I had my first soap volcano today. Then I accidentally posted about it in the candle making forum but was unable to figure out how to delete it. My apologies. Hopefully this means I'm getting my Monday over with early.
:headbanging:
I think I soaped too hot after trying to melt the palm (10% Avocado, 90% Palm, 30% lye concentration, 2% superfat). Since I'd poured into individual soap molds, it ended up looking like a soufflé gone wrong... So I just grabbed a spoon, shoved as much as I could back into the molds, and moved the tray to a cooler area.
Oh well... This is going to be an ugly soap. I just hope it holds together and doesn't make soap scraps. It is a bar, but it is mottled and awkward. Poor duckling.

P.S. I did say oops, but my soap didn't actually say KA-BLAMMO. I added the sound in my head.
