Double Boiler Hot Process Soap

I used to make crock pot hot process at the very beginning of my soaping adventure.  But after a few tries, I gave up.  However, recently I read some inspiring threads about hot process soap and just had to try it again.

And I wasn't disappointed, I love the way the cooked soap turn out.  I always added Sodium Lactate when I made CPHP, but still the soap was too dry to pour. But with double boiler, the soap poured perfectly into mold.  I am now in love with this method.

As this one turned out pretty well, I decided to do the second batch and cut down a tiny bit of water and also tried adding a little bit of sugar as well.  This batch had tallow in it so it's really white (I also added a bit of TD in it.)  But is it just me or does tallow soap smell more with hot process?

I think I have found another great method of soap making.  My thanks to all the great hp soaper out there.

We are in the Monsoon season right now.  The weather is lovely today, no rain but a nice breeze.  Maybe not so good for the curing soap, lol.
