My soap is basically the consistency of of dough. Anyone know if I can just melt it down and add more palm oil or something? How can I rebatch it to make it hard when it cures?
gratia said:Hmm, if everything was done right, it should not be. What is your recipe?
You don't want to start adding things, I don't think that will get you anywhere.
If you post the recipe some can give you an idea of what went wrong.
What part of San Diego are you from, I am too.
Good Morning! The same thing happened to me. My very first batch didn't happen thisway. but the last two soap batches did. The sexond one, seized really quickly because added cold milks. The second seized for what ever reason. I can't figure out why. the recipe for my last soap batch is:
50% Olive Oil
14% Palm Kernal Flakes
14% Coconut Oil
12% Sunflower
10% Castor Oil
10.6 Water
3.9 Ly
It didn't seem to go through the gel phase either. I ended with an glob of dough. Even when I porued my oils it started excelerating. So, I have a soft batch of glob.
