rebeccajo99 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) I've been searching and searching and cannot find anything. I want to make salt bars, but every tutoral and recipe I find says to put it in a warm oven. Is that the only way to make salt bars or can I make them without the oven and I am just not finding a tutorial for it.Thanks Edited June 10, 2011 by rebeccajo99 spellcheck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I've never had to gel in the oven. it gets pretty hot all by itself once the salt is added. If you're not sure, a blanket may help give peace of mind. I have to cut within about 4 hours of pouring into the mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn624 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I never put mine in the oven, they get nice a toasty all by themselves. I also cut within a few hours after molding, wait much longer than that and they are almost impossible to cut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovelyLathers Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I don't put mine in the oven either, just throw a towel over them. But as everyone else said make sure you cut them in about 4 hours otherwise thet are too hard and crumble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitn Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I have never used any heat, they start gelling right away and get unmolded asap.. I don't know why the tuts would say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
