    Maybe cut back the water I don't know how much you used. It could be the recipe too I know my Coco Loco recipe foams a lot because it has coconut oil in it.

    I don't use Red Turkey Castor oils anymore. I usually cut back on my KOH a little i make a 1/2 recipe that calls for 6 ounces of KOH I use 5.85 ounces of KOH soap seems to come out nice. CAtherine Failors book if you ever read the whole book she doesn't superfat until after the cook. Actually she is in the red minus 10 and than superfats with the red Castor after the cook. So if you don't want to use it just go into soapcalc or cut back a little I did a lot of testing so I prefer to just cut back on the KOH.

    It has been awhile since I used it I superfat with it after the cook. I will have to look it up in Catherine Failors book. I know it it the only oil that is water soluble. Did some reading it says 1 teaspoon per lb of soap for superfatting after the cooks and dilution
  23. Barbara AL
    Do you have Catherine Failors liquid soap making book? I like her Coco Loco recipe I usually make half a recipe makes about 70-80 ounces for half recipe.

    Sponiebr I use Sodium Lactate as a humectant also helps with release the soap earlier out of the mold. I hope you can gets this worked out.

    Just read you froze your Honey and put it in the lye water, a better solution mix the Honey in hot distilled water and add it to the oils but not the lye water after light trace.
