Re: Handmilled Soap - Jeneen

Hi Jeneen!

Handmilled is the same as rebatched - meaning that the recipe uses pre-made

soap as the base by grating and melting it and putting in whatever additives you

want (such as essential oils, herbs and botanicals, etc.),or whatever the recipe

calls for. Than it's poured into a mold to set. This is sometimes referred to

as French milled and it makes a denser and longer-lasting soap. Hope this helps!

When you melt the soapn and add the additives do you wait the 4-6 weeks to cure,

or can it be used quicker?

Rebatched soap can be used as soon as it is hard enough as it has no lye in

it. It is finished soap to start with, all you are doing is grating, melting

and adding a few additives and shaping into a bar.

Ohh Zo and everyone else thank you for the response on my MP and HandMilled soap

question. When you hand mill does the additives suspend more than adding in the

very beginning? Can you melt your soaps in microwave as you do M & P? And if you

don't mind me asking what is the difference between the two. Because from what I

understood, the M & P didn't have lye in it either. Again, thanks in advance.
