I don't use this product for soap making. I use it for curing Olives so I won't be any help with your soap making project. Sorry.

That's odd. I have just used the brand once so far so I couldn't tell you yet if I'm having the same problem. You may have to keep stirring longer.

Its just a piece of glass so I use soapy water, rinse then dry with a paper towel. Did you perhaps use the wrong markers?

Had the same problem with several soap brands. Seems as though the underbody dispenser apparatus gets plugged up and allows the pump to be depressed, but has insufficient spring left to allow it to back come up again: thus you get a short stroke/minimal output problem. I tried cleaning it, oiling it, etc... nothing worked. Just replaced that part from Moen's website. Hopefully its a fluke, because it isn't even a year old yet.

Nothing happens. Soaps and detergents work better in softer water. I add a couple of scoops of baking soda to the wash water, it also softens the water.

Did you give it a little time to saturate the filter? Unless you did something putting the new filter on, which I am not sure what that could be. Giving the filter time to fill is all I can think of. Good luck.

I assume you have refilled the water chamber with new water. Make sure it is very hot. This will eliminate any gummy substance that may have it clogged.

Is this a new machine? It sounds like there may be something wrong with it. If new, maybe you should return it and get another. What kind of salt are you using? I've never had this problem so can't really offer any kind of solution. My machine is still keeping the water clear and fresh. I use Morton Pool Salt sold at Walmart.

It is produced as a liquid soap dispenser, so the consistency of the liquid is really the issue. If you used something more water-like in viscosity, the pump might not work as well. You wouldn't know until you tried it. Of course, if the liquid shampoo or conditioner or other types of liquid soap used were of a very high viscosity (more like molasses), then the pump might clog. We had a kitchen liquid soap dispenser where we had this problem - we bought liquid soap we thought the pump would use, but it was too viscous and the pump did not work correctly. I'm sure this applies to the pump in this product.

Soak the pan in soapy water, and it should clean up. If everything doesn't clean up on the first try, soak again.

While refilling, you may have inadvertently lost the very tiny white plastic bead that sits loose inside the pump assembly at the bottom of the spring piece. Same thing happened to both my units. So I used a round pinhead from a decorative hatpin. Just pulled it loose from the pin and dropped it into the bottom of pump shaft and all worked again. The bead prevents the pump from pushing air back into the soap reservoir instead of out the dispensing tip.

This happened to me as well on the 2nd day. Initially, I soaked my filter many times and that didn't help. Eventually it finally stopped today after I shook the filter. It was so frustrating. I guessing maybe this has something to do with the fact that there are 3 layers of the filter materials. Perhaps the mineral particles shuffled to the very bottom but they're supposed to be at the top, according to the pic in the brochure. This is just a guess.

Are you filling it to the max fill line? It usually takes a couple of minutes for the water signal to reset. Mine did that and I lightly banged the sides and it started working. If that's not the problem then you may have to call Edge Star for help.

I initially had the same problem. When I first added the soap and water, it came out as just diluted soap. I opened it back up and poured off a bit of the mixture (allowing for more air for foaming). When I tried again, it worked fine after a few pumps to get the air back into it. Not sure if this will help those who are having trouble getting it to foam, but it worked for me.

Did you season it first with some spray Pam etc.. a high heat oil like canolla. it fills in the irregularities in the surface. Also since you have used it already try using Pam first for a while. When cooking do not put your heat as high as you did for your old pans For Cleaning: wipe out with a paper towel when still warm not hot with warm soapy water. Do not immerse in cold water when hot

try cleaning it, or might be out of time.or check the tape to make sure there is no clear tape at the beginning.

Actually yes I've been experimenting with that of late. Helps to remove all the old soap first. So far it's working. I've been doing it for a couple of months now. It appears it's like enough to work. And I'm happy that. Let me know otherwise if you have a different experience.

Good news I tried something I took mine and rinsed it a few times under warm water then washed the whole thing in warm soapy water now it's nice and clean and good to go, it's all dry now so washing didn't ruin it. I couldn't get the filter out of mine either my friend has one same thing
