Response to Soap making questions.

I actually make a five pound using the receipe for the one pound. I did run in on the lye calulator chart to make sure. I also bought an expensive mold for Summers Past in CA., but my husband has since made me a couple of molds using the Miller cite deminions. My husband's is better because the sides unscrew(wooden mold) and you just push the soap out. I also have a few Milkey Way Molds which are really neat but are expensive and each mold only makes about three bars (lg bars). My mom really loves the molds so I use them for her as gifts. I would read the Kathy Miller site before buying the books. I have tried receipes in several books that have been flops. Since I started messing around on her web site I have put out some really nice bars. There is also a great forum on soap owned by Sugar Plum Sundries. Visit it it is wonderful. Whenever one has a question you get an answer in minutes. Good Luck,
