Soap Makers Help!

[Sooner]

Thanks Morgaine, my lavender is 40/42 from Bramble berry......hopefullly I like it better in soap than OOB, think I better make a small batch.

Doesn't look like I will get to make soap this weekend after all!

This wkend I hope to do my batch of lemongrass chunked into milk soap as well as one of my holiday scents.

I have some canning to do and at least 2 batches of cheese to get through as well. I won't be satisfied unless I fill another shelf with soap.

I have to come up with a good storage place to let my soap dry. That is really a problem for me but hopefully that will be fixed in the next few months.

Rocky what do you mean by "batch of lemongrass chunked into milk soap"?

I'll make the lemongrass batch with water for the liquid. I'll cut that into chunks or long slices and pour a 2nd match of soap (goats milk this time) over the chunks. I'm hoping for a nice contrast in color and a cool design. Maybe I'll put some lime zest in the lemongrass batch? or I could split the lemongrass batch and color 1/2 green so I'd have yellow and green chunks inside the whiter bar...lemon lime kinda thing.....hmmmm.

I would love to see pic's of that when you get done!!! I gave some soap to my sister to try so I can see what she thinks. I plan to try to get two batches done next weekend, looks like lemongrass & ???? Maybe I will be brave & try to swirl.

Here is a picture of soap that I did that used chunks of another soap in it.

that is great.....do you just put the chunks in your mold & pour over the top? It doesn't melt if you have the gel phase?
