Hi All!
I have finally worked out a castile recipe I like, but I wanted to add a water discount to my recipe so that it helped the curing process & when I did this, the soap wanted to gel! I'm not really a fan of the gelled look in this soap & wasn't able to achieve a full gel anyway. I adjusted the recipe, made it & put it straight into the freezer. Was I meant to wait until it set up? I can't find much online about the process or how to prevent the condensation on the soap once it is out of the freezer. I Pulled my batches out today & they are still a little soft its been around 24hrs, they are holding shape but I'm worried they haven't saponified properly.
Let me know your tips on preventing gel phase & water discounting for a shorter cure time
