My first soap that I used beer powder in, is 5 weeks old. I decided to try it out and the initial result was good.

The recipe is coconut oil, lard, Castor oil, PKF, HOSAF, 1 tbsp ppo goat milk powder, 2% ppo beer powder

I cut a bar in half, then put it in a soap bag. It bubbled up fast and abundantly with good lather.

Then with the other half, I tried it without the soap bag. I still got great bubbles and lather, just not quite as much.

Even with the good results, I can't definitively say that it was because of the beer powder. Having used castor oil throws the results off. However I am confident enough to say that it increased the bubble/lather compared to my other bars.

I was just wondering about this yesterday, and thank you for sharing your impressions. Sorry if you mentioned this before, but I can't remember - did you find that the beer powder accelerated trace?
