Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 It's a form of hot process. Make your soap as you would for CP. Once it's in the mold, put the mold in a preheated oven at 175*-200 for 2 hours. After time's up, turn the oven off adn allow to gradually cool or at least 8 hours. I make soap at night so I can turn the oven off and go to bed. The next day the soap is ready to use as soon as it comes out of the mold. It doesn't need weeks to cure like CP soap does.
