Hi! I am new to the website and also a new Bramble Berry customer.
Recently I found a recipe on Pure & Natural Soaps Website for Rosemary Mint Goat's Milk Soap that says the following:

24 hrs in advance: 1/2 tsp Tea Tree Oil, 1/4 tsp. Rosemary Essential Oil, 1/4 tsp. Lime Essential Oil
6.4 oz. Goats Milk - put in freezer till slushy
2.4 oz Lye
Place lye solution in ice water bath and stir till dissolved...keep in there, adding more ice if necessary.

(So....I'm unclear about exactly what I'm supposed to do 24 hrs in advance. Do I mix the goats milk, the lye, and the essential oils together? I've never done that before. I always mixed the lye with water at the time I begin to make the batch of soap. Is the Goat's Milk used in place of water in this recipe?)

The rest of the recipe calls for
4.8 ozs Coconut Oil
1.6 oz. Palm Oil
9.6 oz. Olive Oil

Add at trace:
1/8 tsp Kelp for colorant
2 tsp dried & crushed mint leaves
I just don't understand the 24 hours in advance part. Can anyone explain it to me? I'd appreciate any insight on it. Thanks.

Welcome!
I think what they mean is to freeze the GM. Looks like they are using the goat's milk instead of the water to mix the lye with. I normally add any fragrance right to the melted oils after they have cooled off.

Hello all, I'm new at this, also. About goat's milk soap from scratch--what I had read, but had to find out the hard way is that when the books say to "freeze the GM til slushy", they are not kidding. When you add the GM to the lye, it heats up VERY quickly, and will turn dark brown unless you add it cold, and slowly. :lol:
