Wanted to ask this Q before I head off to school, coz I want to soap this afternoon and hopefully someone can let me know what I am doing wrong!
I soap at a lower temp, 110-100°F. Lately I have been getting a partial gel.
I stick my mold in the fridge while I make my batch. Then once I have put it in the mold, I stick it back in the fridge.
For some reason I am getting a partial gel on nearly all of my soaps. Is it because I am soaping at a lower temp? Or is it just one of those things? Can certain fragrance oils cause the soap to heat up causing the partial gel?
I know that the partial gel doesn't make a difference to the quality of soap and it's only a visual issue. I would just like it not to happen!
