So I have been reading how you can add and addtl 1 tbl of oil or butter to your bases. I thought with winter here an extra tbl of cocoa butter would be good. So last night I made up 6 lbs of goat milk and made 2 separate layer loaves of soap. Well both separated on me this morning when I cut it. I'm not new at MP and I didn't for get to spritz in between and my temps were perfect. The only thing different was I added cocoa butter. Has anyone else had this issue? I've just remelted my dragons blood and it's a nice purple now... As it was layered gray and red. What a mess!

I don't go by temps. I go by looks (and feel). If my bottom layer has a skin over it, I know I can pour another layer over the top of it and it won't mix. Is it possible that you waited too long between pouring the layers?

No, I didn't wait to long. I do layers all the time. I remelted the soap since the layers fell apart so easily and repoured. The exact same thing happened. Sigh. I ended up throwing it all away out of frustration.

Where did the base come from?

Bramble berry goats milk base. It's the only one I use. I also put in a drop of activated charcoal. Maybe that could be it?

Well I definitely won't do that again... Maybe I'll make a small batch w/ just the cocoa butter and layer it and see how it does. Thanks!
