I learned on room temp CP soaping. That's the way I have always done it. I like to add swirls to my soap, but my problem is that the mixture thickens too fast. By the time I get my colors mixed, the main batch has to be scooped out. And I do move along quick when I mix the color.
I use 33% water and fragrance that is well rated for CP. It seems as soon as the lye mixture is well blended it goes thick. Adding the fragrance usually helps thin it out.
My thoughts are to try soaping with warm ingredients and also adding more water. Any advice would be appreciated.
