Cold processed, which goat's milk soap is.

Hot processed soap (HP) is cooked beyond tracing, you get a bar that can be used faster (1-2 weeks) but you lose the texture and have to add in alot more fragrance. (If you try this with milk soaps, you'll end up with the worst smell ever, and it'll look like burnt cheese).

Cold Processed in the soap that's made from lye, it's not cooked after the trace stage. It gives a smooth creamy base to add scents and colors well.

Glycerin soap is made by the hot processed method, then splitting the batch with ethol alchol. this takes alot of practice, and if you mess up, can result in horriable burns. If you make soap casually, order this as a premade base and keep your skin intact.

You can mix glycerin and CP soap, but the temp is the most important thing. If you want I can write out the steps.
 
Dur. I thought you were adding some fancy pants ingredient for CP. I am stupid. Don't ask how long it took to figure out BOSS.
 
In chicken terms, Black Oil Sunflower Seeds. Took me 2 years of reading - not yet joined - to figure it out.
 
Just got back, the molds are fab, so i'm pretty happy. Debi, when you're ready to try soaping, i'll drive up and give you a lesson. I've now got some extra half batch molds, and you can keep one.
