Hi~
Does anyone have advice on how to get uniform bars from silicone molds? Do I mark the mold to a pour line? Pouring all the way to the top makes for extra thick, hard to handle bars. I am not doing anything fancy, just plain rectangle bars. I am eyeballing 1/8 inch. Sometimes it is more; sometimes it is less.

Put your mold on a scale. Pour water into the cavity and see how many ounces that is. Then use the same weight for your MP soap.
