    Anyone use one of these? Was thinking of getting one for a trade show I am doing so I don't have to turn down customers.

    Hi all I am going to make some lotion bars and was going to infuse my oils with Calendula and Chamomile petals. Do you think I could also use royal jelly? Not fresh but the kind in a tub from the natural food store. Do you think it would infuse the oil and strain out or is it a waste of time?

    Your welcome. This is one of my best investments!

    Phew! I thought I got the wrong stuff.

    Anyone know the difference? I got the food grade for my CP and realized there was a tech grade too from Essential Depot. Did I get the wrong kind?

    I placed an order this morning and got the sale email this afternoon! So frustrating! I want to try the new Raspberry Macaroon!

    It is only heavy with the soap on it. Where I have it is where it stays.

    So today there is no zap. Do you think its ok? I am thinking what ever seeped out absorbed back in.

    Hi I am thinking it overheated. The liquid did zap so it was definitely lye. Do you think I could rematch or should I just toss? Here is my recipe. Olive Oil 33% Coconut Oil 25% Palm Oil 20% Cocoa Butter 5% Castor Oil 7% Mango Butter 5% Avocado Oil 5%

    Made a batch of green tea soap-new recipe with added mango butter and new fragrance. It gelled for quite a while. I un-molded it today and there was lye water liquid on the bottom of my soap log and white blotches on the bottom of the soap. What do you think would cause this and do you think it will soak back in? I actually wiped the bars and set them on my curing rack. I should have just stayed with my regular trusty recipe. Just wanted to try something new.

    LOL! I could definitely use another one!

    Forgot to add, it holds about 700 bars of soap!

    LOL! I got this here http://www.gardeners.com/Large-Orchard-Rack/38-524,default,pd.html It is a vegetable drying rack. Someone posted it on here, I looked into it and bought it.

    No, I wish. Hmmm maybe hubby can put wheels on it for me!

    Just wondering if it is mandatory to put your full address on all labels or if you can just put Handcrafted in (your town and state)??? Just weirded out to put my home address on anything and I don't have a PO box.

    Has anyone ever used this in a recipe? Was wondering if i could infuse olive oil with it as it is hard to incorporate with the oils.
  23. icecold
    Wow thanks!

    I just want a salve for dry, cracked hands in thewinter and something good for gardeners hands in the summer. I would like to use beeswax, avocado oil, mango butter, cocoa butter and maybe olive oil.

    9 pounds. I have never rebatched soap. What is the easiest way to do it? Can I cut it up really small and put it in a big pot in the oven? How long should it be in there?
