guppygirl Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 This is just silly! Since my test batch turned out fine, I decided to do a larger batch (3#) and used real honey, fresh frozen GM, and ground oats. Threw it in the fridge overnight to keep it from overheating although I could tell it was already starting to gel in the fridge. So, it's nice & cool to touch now & this is what I find after I cut into it.Do I pitch this or will this be my first bebatch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caradelrae Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Im confuzzled. Is that white layer a dif layer of soap? I say give it a few days and check for zap, then think rebatch! Never throw out soap...LOLCara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunny Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Whoa baby.. How much honey did you use? That looks like it overheated. WOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janis Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Yep, it overheated, lol! Good thing you put it in the fridge or you might have had a volcano! I'm with Bunny, it was probably the honey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guppygirl Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 Whoa baby.. How much honey did you use? That looks like it overheated. WOW!um.. well, now that I think about it, probably too much... just double checked the recipe and realized that I cut everything in half EXCEPT the honey *slaps forehead*so is this salvagable?In the meatime Bunny, not to hijack my own thread LOL! but I think I've found my ultimate base recipe. I'm finally happy with it & would love to send you a tester once it's cured a little longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
