    Just obtained some of this emulsifier because I have hardly any different emulsifiers in stock. Any tips for using this, anyone? Up until now my standard high-hlb emulsifier has been polysorbate 20 or 80, this Emulgin has an hlb of 12 according to this useful table here.

    OK. Now that the test batch has cooled and potted and had a play with it, I have the distinct impression that substituting glycerol monostearate with Emulgin VL75 has radically reduced soaping, improved play time, and given better sensorials in general.
