Made a couple of research batches today-and I hate it when your soaps seeps out of the bottom of the mold just a bit-just sayin.

I had the same problem today! I thought it was seizing up on me and threw it in the mold...only to discover it was like water! Soap everywhere :(
Happy soaping!
Awww,so sorry Irene.I made some temporary "lids" for some pvc molds that I was doing some experimentation with and wellll-lets just say there has to be a better option out there.I didn't lose a whole lot and luckily I was prepared for some seepage-but I did lose some soap. Oh well.
I've never had the nerve to use pvc molds -you know me and my KFC containers! LOL I have had "no line" molds leak and I panicked...wasted soap everywhere...grrr!
Luckily I didn't have huge mess and sort of suspected that my temporary fix might not hold,but I knew there was a problem when I checked on them and they were both down about an inch or two from the level I poured them at. Sure,enough there was soap everywhere making for a slight mess. I'll have to think of a way to cap these smaller pvc pipes off. I have caps for the larger ones-but these smaller experimental ones have no cap---and obviously my rigged caps didn't hold soap. lol!
