lye-n-eyes Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I normally do CP and I always discount at about 40%(unless i have a tricky FO), and I am wondering if I can do a water discount in HP as well? Any thoughts? The reason I ask, the HP soaps I have been making are still coming out a bit softer than what I want. Am I maybe doing something else wrong?Thanks,Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidsngarden Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I believe I read that you should not discount HP. I don't do HP often, but every time I have the bars are pretty soft compared to my CP bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaVSoap Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 You can discount wth CPHP. Just watch it when it cooks because it's more prone to overheating.I use a 35% solution on soapcalc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lye-n-eyes Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 Thanks, I may try the 30ish % and see what happens. Doesnt it also help to cook a bit longer to help hardening?I shall try it and report my results.A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
