Goat Milk Oats & Honey CP Soap
Recipe Instructions
4 T. finely ground oat flour, sifted
4 t. honey mixed with small amount of warm water
Essential Oils - 105 g, optional.
Measure out oats, honey and essential oils, if using. (This soap can be left unscented if desired.) Then slowly add lye to frozen goat's milk. Do not rush this process in order to keep the lye from getting too warm and scorching the milk. As the ice melts, it gets easier to stir. (Using an ice bath can help keep lye temperature down but is not necessary.
Once the lye is dissolved, set aside. Now measure out the oils, starting with cocoa butter first. Once it's mostly melted, weigh out the shea butter and coconut oil and return to heat. Once these are melted, add in the liquid oils. Stir well. Next add honey and using the stick blender, mix well. When the lye and oils are between 75 and 80 degrees, pour the lye into the oil. Using the stick blender, blend until it reaches slight trace. Next add the honey, blending well. Then add oat flour, again blending well. Add essential oils last, if using. Finally you are ready to pour the soap into molds. Add oats to the top if desired. Once you have finished the top of the soap, spray with 99% alcohol to prevent soda ash from forming on the top. Wait, spray again in 10 min. Then place in the freezer for 5 hours to prevent the superheating of the soap during soaponification, due to the honey. After 5 hours, remove from the freezer and place in the fridge overnight. The following afternoon, remove the soap from the fridge and leave on the counter for 2 more days until hard and ready to remove from mold for cutting. Allow to cure for 4-6 weeks before using.
