Heat up the rest of the oils to 100F. Add milk mixture and blend well. Slowly add lye/honey solution. Use a stick blender to reach trace (a few minutes). At trace add peels/E.O.s. Pour the raw soap into a large container or leave in your pot. Insulate with a blanket overnight. The following day cut it into cubes approximately three quarters of an inch. Set aside.
