Hi all,
I’m new to soap making. I’ve been trying to make tallow soap.
When I went to demold my soaps I noticed this strange texture on the top of the soap (the other sides of the soap are perfectly smooth). What have I done wrong here??
Super fat 8%, water ratio 38% - I mixed my batch for around 3-5 mins, consistency was like a light batter (thick but pourable). Temps for tallow and lye around 100-115F.
Any advice is appreciated!
