Sorry for the misspellings. It is Sirens Song mica

Am I soaping too hot? The second batch gelled but cracked as well. I ran in the calc 3 times before I made it.

Thank you.

The brambleberry calculator. I know now where I messed up. I was checking the ounce on another recipe and I must have gotten the two mixed up in my head and my notes.

32.03 oz. Lots of lather quick mix 6.02 oz Lye 10.56 oz water .99 oz Spellbound woods f. oil

Maybe it crumbly because I had a lot of air bubbles?

I took it out to cut it & it is pretty crumbly and breaks we're it cracked. Also it is zappy. I will give it a few more hours then I will finish cutting it. I will probably throw this soap away.

Thank you both. I did take it out of the freezer and cover it with the lid and towel. The crack has closed back now and it is very warm. I only made it 2 or so hours ago.

I put it in the freezer with lid off. Should I leave it in there uncovered or should I cover it? I want it to reach full gel phase. Soaped at temps... Lye 128 and Oils 120. What should I do? Can I fix this and still get a full gel?

I proably am, I just don't want burn my skin. To be extra safe do you think using a 7% superfat setting would work okay?

I have to use Brambleberry at first so I can learn to get use to using lye and making my first CP soaps since I am using the lots of lather bag of oils from there for right now. Thanks for teaching me. I checked the B.C. website under questions and found this. So do I need to change anything...

I bought the "Belle Chemical food grade pure 100% NaOH" from B.C. So I wasn't sure.

"*Please note: The Bramble Berry Lye Calculator assumes a 90% purity for Potassium Hydroxide (liquid soapmaking) and 97% purity for Sodium Hydroxide (solid bar soapmaking). These purity levels are what are commonly available for sale to consumers, including the lye sold at Bramble Berry" >>>>...

Not at a normal stores mostly but the candle aisle or malls really give me a headache. So many stores like bath and body works and V.S. so close together. We bagged them all and moved them. I think maybe we figured out was making my head hurt so bad. There were two scents that the smelled...

I got my nurture soap orders today that included my first micas and fragrance oils but the smell of the fragrance oils in my house is killing me. I am going to have to move them to my shed. I am having a smell overload or something. I don't normally use perfume or scented things so this is a...

I found a really interesting one today on sale at IndigoFragrance called Christmas Wishes. I have not tried it yet but the shipping was very cheap so a snagged a bunch of different fall and winter scents to try.

Birth and death are natural parts of life, no need to hide it I guess. The child cussing part though I was like woah... No. No. :)

I have been irritated all week. My breaker box in my house caught on fire. The fire fighters tried to blame me and my cooking skills at first before they found the real problem. We had to stay in a hotel suite which was nice but when we finally got to come home, the landlords son came over and...

When I used my husband's office address in Morgan County, TN... I get this. I can totally have him bring my stuff from there. Thanks girl. Thank you all for everything. I ordered my first colors from Nurture soap... Today I learned you can get quite a bit of sample sets from there for a...

That could be bad.
