Cold as ICE

[Annmarie0407]

Its been very cold here in California(at night). My soaps are stored on shelves in my Zen Soap room(which was my garage). The garage is getting very cold at night. Should I move my soaps out of there? This is also where I make my soaps , saponify and cure for 6 weeks.

Not sure what very cold means. Here in Indiana, very cold means 10 to 15 below zero. lol. We do freeze our batches a couple of hours just before unmolding, but then store the soaps in our basement at room temperature. Frequent freezing and thawing could cause cracks, or at least create condensation which could leave water spots on the surfaces. It might be OK, but I would not risk it if your garage gets below freezing. Good luck.
