How big is the batch you're trying to rebatch? You could always halve it and rebatch one half and do the other half later.

I haven't tried to rebatch yet (I'm a beginner) but I have the rebatch base from BB. I have a 1-lb wooden mold that I want to use.

I believe 4 quarts make a gallon. So if you have a 2 quart double boiler, 1 lb. of soap should work fine. did you get instructions with your rebatch base?

I don't think there were any instructions with the rebatch but I have watched the Soap Queen Rebatch video several times so that's what I was going to use for my instructions. The double boiler on that video looks much bigger. Maybe she was making a larger batch though. I'll have to check out the video again and see how much rebatch base she had in her large double boiler.

Thanks!
