Do you line it with freezer paper or do you pour right into it?

Looks like Tigers Milk, a chocolate candy from my childhood days that I was completely addicted to! Haven’t thought about that in years, Now I have to go on a hunt for some. Your soap looks absolutely delicious!

Thanks Chris_S, I’ll have to give that a try. Hope you get your laptop soon

Great, thank you! I’m still battling that pesky partial gel. I’m going to try soaping at room temp to see if that helps. Any other tips you have for suppressing it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Penelopejane. I kept telling myself that it’s drain cleaner but I just couldn’t do it without hearing it was okay from someone else. Thank you.

Hello everyone, I am making a batch of goats milk and honey soap and I guess I got too impatient pouring my lye into my goats milk and it scorched! Strong ammonia smell and orange color. How can I dispose of this? Can I pour it down the kitchen sink?
