newbie first batch

Well I jumped in and did my first cphp today and I am a little concerned about the air bubbles, I think I poured a little to late , soap looked like taffy when i slopped it into the mold but I did try out a piece and it lathers nice and has bubbles

I am so excited, i can hardly wait to slice it up

The top looks like crumbly soap sort of dried pieces,

I thought I was going to faint a few times -first mixing lye and water...but turns out it was easy...then when I started to smell my stick blender burning, so I decided to mix by hand. Think I over taxed my NEW stick blender.

Then When I put my gloves back on my arm began to burn, Luckly- vinegar was close.

How do I go about cleaning up utensils and gloves, like the cup I mixed lye and water in?

all in all - can't wait to do it again :yay:

Any pointers on when to pour to prevent so many air bubbles?

Also read some instructions on hp in the mold
