Pine Tar Exfoliants settled? Help!

[MericleSoapCo]

I’ve been making Pine Tar now for a good 6 months. Just recently i’ve decided to make larger batches and now i’m getting exfoliants that are settling all the way to the bottom. What could be the cause of this.

I am certainly not an expert but the first time I made Pine Tar soap, it seized before I could get it properly mixed and as well as lye pockets, it had streaks like this. Is it possible that you did not mix this batch as thoroughly as your past ones?

What exfoliates did you add? It’s definitely streaky so maybe it wasn’t mixed thoroughly- when did you add the pine tar?
