Help I added too much distilled water to my HP soap

[Trishsoaps]

Can someone tell me if my batch is salvageable. i did blend it to a trace but now it's separated in the crock pot. Looks like too much water.

No one can tell anything without the full recipe and a picture. Extra water is really only going to affect cure time.

Please post your entire recipe in weights. Many things can cause soap to separate when its cooking in HP, try blending it back together with your stick blender.

Thanks for your reply. I actually stick blended it back together in the crockpot and it fixed the problem. I made a small batch containing 35 oz of oils. My recipe was 30% coconut oil, 60% olive oil and 10% avocado oil. I added 13.3 ounces of distilled water divided in two as half of it was strongly brewed espresso coffee. I added the lye to the divided water and once it was clear I added both the water and coffee to my melter oils. The separation was almost instant (probably a few minutes into the cooking).
Thank you for having taken the time to reply. I'm just glad that such a forum exists. Cheers.
