Well let's give these salt bar bad boys a try!!!`

What's the worst that could happen....Well less than bofore anyway

90% coconut oil
5% avacado
5% castor

I couldn't bear to just do a simple 100% CCO and had to tinker.

25% salt. It was slower than anything recently to trace even with the SB. salt added and not a huge difference to trace.

It's poured, yes, really poured instead of my most recent dolloped soaps.

Setting as we speak. Cutting tonight hopefully.

Nice not to have any problems (yet).

Very cool. Keep an eye on them and cut when they are hard enough - don't leave it for x hours and hope it'll be okay. Until YOU know for sure how long they take to firm up, you need to do it when they are ready, not by the clock. A lot of people have made the mistake of waiting for a set time based on someone else's experience only to find themselves with a very hard loaf of salt soap!

Many thanks T.E.G. It's setting up fine. This could be where impatience is on my side!!!!!!

Start to consider cutting at about 90 minutes to 2 hours. I've waited longer and they just crumble apart. The soap should still be warm, almost hot, but firm when you cut them. Good luck on your salt bars, that should be a nice recipe!

Thanks. I forgot to mention I used frozen goats milk at 100% instead of water.

cheers.
