I just made a batch of coconut milk soap...first time!!!! I disolved the lye in minimal water & added the semi-frozen coconut milk to the emulisified lye/oils. After adding oatmeal, EO's & honey, I popped it in the fridge. How long should I keep it there?

Also, my lye water looked cloudy after stirring it for a long time. Here's what I did:

2.1 oz lye dissolved in 2.5 oz water & later added 2.5 oz coconut milk (it's a 1 pound of oils batch to test the recipe). I (think) I followed the advice of many people here, dissolving the lye in minimal water, but more than the weight in lye. If I did something incorrectly, please don't be shy :) in telling me.

Hubby is taking me to a new restaurant, who knows what I will come home to in the fridge :shock:

Peace!

If you are trying to keep the soap from gelling, you can safely leave your soap in the fridge or the freezer overnight.
