I've been trying out some new recipes lately. Yesterday I made a small batch using jojoba, which I've never used before. Things seemed pretty normal. I mixed my lye/water, measured and melted my oils, blended to a thin trace and I added about 15 grams of Citrus Burst FO by Gracefruit and hand mixed the FO in. The FO did accelerate my batch a bit. It seemed a little lumpy when I poured it into the mold.
I covered the mold and left it in a room for 24 hours. When I went to check on it today, I noticed lighter patches in the soap, that looked almost like glycerine. What do you think this is from? Should I have mixed the batter longer?
Thanks for any feedback!
