lbtddr Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 i just made a coffee soap my regular recipe and full coffee for the water witch i don't do most the time but it will not trace it is still runny after about 30 minutes of and on mixing i added coffee grounds and tried two tablespoons of kaolin clay thinking that might help any ideas what i can do with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasBrat Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Have you rechecked your lye? That is all I can think of as to why it's not tracing. I have used coffee as my full water and didn't have any trouble with it tracing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbtddr Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 i went ahead and put it in the mold it did kinda set up after about 45 minutes never had soap take that long i am not sure it will be OK the lye was right but the water/coffee was not discounted at all i was thinking with coffee grounds it would need full water but i will never do that again i am thinking it will take 3 or 4 days before i can cut it.
