Finally had my first failed batch after 38 successes. It’s a recipe that I have used many times so won’t go into the details. It just would not come to trace. I have not been stick blending for awhile now because I only make 2.5lb batches. Usually just take my time and stir away with my spatula. It was late at night so I didn’t want to bust out the stick blender and make a bunch of noise. Should have know better than to pour because I knew it was barely at an emulsion. The FO was Seven Isles from Nurture Soap. Can FO’s cause a recipe to not come to trace? I mean I stirred on and off for 20-30 minutes. Very strange. Also very sucky feeling dumping out the contents of a 2.5lb mold.
