  1. I am new to M&P. What/why do you use Dr Bronners for? Thanks?
  2. Thank you. prairieannie! I am so excited about soap making, and am just getting 'into' M&P- and that is SO fun! I am just not that creative about adding things to the base, so I love this forum and having people like you share!! How much goatmilk powder do I need to add to how much water? (reconstitute powder to liquid)
  3. What is the ratio of milk powder to water? ...and alll I need to do is add 3-4 TBSP of the mixed liquid per pound of base? That won't make the base too thin- it will still set up ok in the molds? I have been using individual silicone molds. Thank you!
  4. Add goat's milk to everything! Moisture moisture moisture! Start with 3 or 4 TBS per pound of base.. and then add more if it's not enough.. I add TONS.. it's wonderful and moisturizing and your skin will love it! Do you mean in liquid or powder form? I am VERY new to m&p, so am trying to learn all I can. Thank you!
  5. I just bought the SoapMaker program. I haven't used it much yet- but I like what I see so far.
  6. Thanks CareBear! OH! NOW that makes sense. I guess I was just too focused on the oils, and didn't think it all the way through....silly me!
  7. I have a question about the volume of a mold. I know that volume is figured out by multiplying length x width x height, and then multiply by .40. Would I be wrong to think that you would add up all your oils AND the lye/water solution to fill up a mold? For example- if my oils add up to 16 ounces, and I also have 6 ounces of lye/water solution, I would need a mold that would hold 22 ounces (a mold with a volume of 22 ounces)? Thanks!
