hi
I have been making soap for about 8 months and made my first real error last week. I have a recipe I like ,
OO 50%
CO 25%
CB 10%
SB 10%
Castor O 5%.
I have just bought some sensitive scales to get my measurements of my oils correct and must have lost concentration some where as the finished product didn't fill my mould where as it has always filled it up...think I may have messed up the Olive O. It has set really hard and the EO of bergamot, pettigrain and geranium are evident on the finished soap. the soap itself feels oily when you touch it. I tried to cut it but it just crumbles. So - do i ditch it or is there something I can use it for??? Pleased I am still making small batches as I am experimenting with EO but if I could use it for something......any suggestions greatly appreciated
