moon Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 After reading, I was wondering if the amount of FO should be different for M&P soap vrs CP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 This is something I was also trying to figure out and I made a melt & pour batch with pomegranate a few days ago, and used 1 oz per pound. I was letting it set up a few days before trying it. Do you have a recommendation for how long it needs to "cure" (if you call it cure when it's m&p)?Darbla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MochaMama Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Hi ladies!Melt and pour doesn't need to cure at all. You can use it as soon as it hardens.That being said, sometimes if it sits out, some of the moisture evaporates and you may get a harder bar.In addition, the scent sometimes gets stronger after a few days also.I hope this helps!
