Hello!
The best way I've found for handmilling is to use fresh soap instead of fully cured soap. I make and sell lots and lots of soap base for crafters, and I always send it fresh(just use gloves:o). If you don't have that, try using more liquid when melting, it may help!:o)
: hello fellow soapers. I have been trying to make handmilled soaps, and they come out nice except that it is really hard to get the basic soap to melt smoothly and not get all goobered up. I'm heating it super slow, but have not found a solution. Anybody have some words of wisdom?Thanks!
