crazycacti Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 So made a batch of soap and i have never had a fast trace before but it was serious pudding consistency right away! I luckily had mold ready and dumped it in there and covered it and buried it under a blanket! It is now setting up! Even though it turned so quick-think all is well? Or might batch need to be dumped? Seems like it usually takes a while!!! TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topofmurrayhill Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 If you've tried that recipe (or similar) before but were using a new fragrance oil, it was probably the FO. I tested one like that just this week. Both times I tried, it was tracing pretty much by the time I put the lye container down. Higher temps could also speed up an otherwise reasonably-behaved fragrance.As long as you had time stir it up properly it should be OK.

Scented Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 It'll probably be fine, but you'll know more when you pull it. Kai moved faster than Superman on me, but it's fine. Frosted Snow Drops turned to instant cement and was lye heavy after cutting. Just wait and see. Tongue test it after you cut it and you'll know.

Angel91805 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Did you have a chance to get all the oils emulsified? If so, it's probably fine. But be sure to test it. Personally, *I'm* a closet soap licker. LOL. Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
