Hello all! Newbie here. I finished making my first batch of soap (cp) but I have a doubt as to look at the center note that I have a darker color than on the sides, this is normal?

How can I know that the soap is now ready to remove from the mold?

I have not yet removed from the mold.

I would appreciate your advice.

Thanks

How long ago did you make it. The darker spot in the middle is probably from gelling. I usually wait 18-36 hours to take it out of the mold :roll:

Sounds like you got a partial gel. If the soap feels like hard cheese, you can probably take it out of the mold now.

So, the big question I have is, what's going on with the two-tone soap? Should I be concerned?

Thanks
