Say my recipe needed 9 oz of water. I would take 3 oz of that water amount, set it aside, then in the 6 oz. of water, I would dissolve my lye. Now with the 3 oz. I put aside, I would add 2-3 tablespoons of milk powder, either stick blend or whisk, beat the heck out of it so there are no clumps. I then put this in the fridge and start working on my soap. When I hit light-medium trace, I take the goat milk slurry out of the fridge, whisk it, then add it to the soap mixture. I use a slotted spoon at this point to incorporate the GM into all of the soap mixture. I then pour into the mold. HTH:cheesy2:
