Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Welcome aboard Charlene, Just like when using oils for cooking, the lower one keeps the oil temps the more it helps them retain their beneficial properties and integrity. Warming them slowly also helps keep them from accidentally getting scorched. Lastly, the cooler some butters stay (i.e. shea butter), the better the re-solidified products' texture and consistency will remain over time. I hope that helped some *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com , " charvmann2 " <charvmann2 wrote: > > i am kinda of new at making body butters. i notice it always says to melt the butter slowly. is there a reason for that instead of just melting it in the micro > thanx > charlene > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Carlene, You can melt it slowly in the microwave by just lowering the power level.
