What to do if oils are warmer than lye

[TJ]

My oils are about 140F and the lye is about 110F. Should i still mix them?

I'd wait til they're cooler, but it's a personal preference. If you're using an FO, they definitely need to be cooler in my experience. Remember, patience is a virtue! (Mind you, I'm not a virtuous woman!)

Okay I went ahead and mixed them when the oils were 115F and the lye was 93F. Thank you for the fast reply!
