Is it BB's Gardenia? I use it and it does want to rice and accelerate but it's not unmanageable. Then again, I soap it around 105*F in a recipe with more unsaturated oils than yours. Adding some of your oils to it before you mix it in helps too. Divide it up into portions for different colored parts of your soap and add it after coloring. You can manage a quick ITP that way.

Thanks, Roxana! You can stalk my blog anytime you want! My feeling is if you are making milk soap you need to soap at low temperature, 115F is way too hot for milk soap, plus you were also using floral FO which is known to accelerate trace and or rice. It could give you a false trace.
