I'm curious to get other opinions on what you would term the below process of soap making (HP, CPOP, CP, etc.) ;-) I have in my head what I would call it, but wondered if any subtle nuances would make you think otherwise. Thanks!
1. Melt oils in crock pot.
2. Create lye water, wait until temp is below 140 and within 15-20 degrees of oils.
3. Pour lye water into crock pot and mix with stick blender until medium trace.
4. Cover crock pot tightly with plastic - never stirring or touching - and coax/force mixture to completely gel (combinations of turning heat on/off, and even removing crock pot completely to regulate temp and evolution of product).
5. Pour into molds when fully gelled.
