Here's one for the experts...
I have some soap that is from mostly soft oils. I am re-batching it, to bring it back to the gel stage I have to heat it over 200*F. When the soap is "hard" it’s very soft, but it does have a high content of soft oils.
So my question is, do you see this normally? I have not done a lot of re-batching as I HP and pH test my soap prior to molding.
In this case I wanted to add some hardening oils to help firm up the batch. And start playing with re-batching/milling.
