asheebeans Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 what size recipe do you make to fill your mold? Their website said that my log mold "held up to" a certain amount (4.6lbs) but it was different from what mine actually held. (less than 4 lbs. I make a 4lb batch and get a few extra testers for myself out of each batch) I want to be able to FILL this slab to max capacity! I know there is a formula somewhere on how to calculate volume...but I can't find it. I'm going to try searching again in the meantime but was wondering if someone had this mold already. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel91805 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I don't have an upland....but the formula is:Length of mold x width of mold x depth you plan to pour at x .4 (that is point four). Now, on their website it says the 12 bar is 2.25 x 3.25 x 1.5 and that looks to be about 9.75 x 9 x 1.5 x .4 and that is 52.65 oz of oils. I'd round it to 52.Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misty Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I've poured 4.1 pounds of soap in mine, and it is very close to the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindym Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I use 3 lbs of oils for the larger size bar slab molds and 6 lbs of oils for the 24 bar larger size slab molds. Some oils I discount water some I don't. My bars are usually 4.8 to 5 ozs cured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
