Guest jurnalynn Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 can someone explain to me what they mean about soap riceing?Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RNSandSCENTS Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I am going to take a rookie's guess and say that ricing has to do with fo acting crazy and taking a turn for the worse....smell wise. Or at least that's what I read but the soapers will give you a more accurate answer....I'm just testing myself here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 ricing is when your soap "batter" starts to look a little grainy and suddenly you are stirring a pot of creamy rice pudding that's thickening up too quickly.it's one of those 'you'll know it when you see it' things. (usually caused by an uncooperative FO or EO. but sometimes the soap fairies are just messin' with ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CareBear Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I believe so, although in lotion it would be called curdling and would be the result of something breaking our emulsion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
