    Your favorite Lavender EO

    Perfumer's apprentice is well regarded by hobbyist perfumers, a lot of people in the eo industry will say things made to be used in perfumery are lower quality, I find the opposite to be the case

    Kombucha Brewers

    All of the ones I know (and I know quite a few) make their own kombucha

    Craigslist and local mushroom farms/growers are also good places to check

    Kombucha Brewers

    I'm curious how it will turn out since I very much like the taste of the kevitas

    Kombucha Brewers

    Does kevita make kombucha? I'm almost 100% positive that their sparkling probiotic beverages won't make kombucha (if that's all that's available to you, I can mail you a bottle of GT's just pay shipping), and for adding ginger I'd recommend juicing it, some people don't mind the fiber in their...

    Your favorite Lavender EO

    I've smelled quite a few of them but it's not one of my favorites so I don't by them regularly.

    First Soap Advice

    I did originally plan to do hp but ended up going cold process I suppose ill just have to wait and see what happens as long as the lye all saponifies it'll at least be a nice soap to use, I washed my hands with it after cutting and it was creamy and bubbly and made my skin feel soft even if it...

    First Soap Advice

    Hello so I un-molded and cut my soap today and a few concerns, it's still zappy which I've read is normal and can take longer if you don't gel. There was a fairly thick layer of soda ash on top that was crumbly and the sides were a little crumbly which I trimmed and the soap was still very soft...
