Crystals on soap surface.

[5MMiniNubians]

I made this goat milk soap on 11-2-18, noticed a few days into curing that there were some crystal type spots on the soap. When I scraped them, they felt grainy like. Now these spots are chalk like, any ide what they are? The pictures are from today, I don't have any of them when the spots were more like crystals. Thank you

Yes, without your recipe and process we really can't help troubleshoot. If you share that information we will be better able to help.

Just looking at your picture, it could be undissolved lye. Or solids that re-solidified or un-dissolved TD. Have you zap tested it?

Could it be soda ash?
