sudsnwicks Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Yes, it will be hot, I think around 190*F when the lye is first stirred into the water. So you'll want to wait until it cools off to somewhere in the range of 90-120*F before pouring it into your oil mixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Wait for it to cool down. It zips up to hot quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
