Today I made my second batch. One pound with 96% OO and 4% castor oil. I used my immersion blender on low, but after 4 minutes of no trace, I started to panic. After switching to high, still no trace after 2 minutes. As terror started to creep in, I rushed to my trusty Kindle to check the forum. After seeing that OO can slow trace, I went back to mix, only to find that it was beginning to trace. LOL.
So the question I have is...... which speed is recommended when using a stick blender?
I also noted that the blender started to get hot after a few minutes. Is it OK or even needed to turn off the blender a few minutes to allow it to cool?
Thanks for the help.
