I tried using a brambleberry shave soap recipe that is palm oil, coconut oil, olive oil and adding a tablespoon of bentonite clay after trace. I’ve only made a few batches of soap and they turned out good. This batch I mixed to medium trace and then added the bentonite. It accelerated so fast I couldn’t get the batter into the molds fast enough. Looking back I think I should have mixed only to thin trace and mixed in the clay by hand instead of the stick blender? Thanks for any replies.
