Guest guest Posted January 9, 2001 Report Share Posted January 9, 2001 Hi, Here is a question for you more experienced cp soapmakers.......What does it mean when you add your lye to water, mix and during cooldown " crystals " form. I went ahead and used it anyway and the soap is very brittle and just doesn't look right. Also, this was a cucumber soap recipe that called for a reduced water amount to mix with the lye initally and then after combining oils/lye mix (saponification begins) to add the pureed mix of cucumber to make up the water difference. I know someone had a cucumber recipe a while back, but I can't find it. If anyone has a reliable one--I would appreciate it! Thanks, Angie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
