had just a few oil spots in my soap this time. used soap catculator, mixed everything well, and poured into loaf mold. opps, foregot the fragrance. i immediatly poured soap back into bowl, added fo, and quickly and thoroughly mixed again. i really hope these are oil pockets and not lye pockets. how can i tell?

It's possible the spots are the fragrance. Did you check for zap?
