Up until now, I've been using soapcalcs default setting and using full water. After reading much on the effects of water and mottling, I want to reduce my water, as I often get the mottling. My concern is that it's going to speed up trace significantly. My ultimate goal is 1.4:1 water :lye ratio. Should I just go for it? Or should I slowly lower my water %? I know other factors will affect trace, I'm just focusing on the water for now. Suggestions? Thoughts? Truly appreciated.
