I just made my first batch in a cylinder mold. In my head it was much easier to just pick up my pot and pour the soap into the pipe. I know the first thing I did wrong was that I did not make my liner go all the way to the top of the mold, I just lined it up to the point where the soap would go. So even if I had been able to pour it in there, it could have gotten behind the liner. But this is how we learn, eh?
Even if I had been able to just pick up the pot and pour it in like the coordinated person I am not, when I added my TTO trace sped up like crazy, thought for a second it was going to seize. It didn't seize but then I had this thick pudding to try to get into a deep mold. I scooped it in there but I have to think there is an easier way. Then I pounded the mold on the ground for a while to try to get the air out. I have no idea what this is going to look like when I take it out tomorrow night.
I tried searching but I couldn't find any tutorials on the forum.
