well I'm talking from experience and what became a frustration. I tried to melt a milled soap using a double boiler and I ended up even putting the bowl directly on the gas flame with no effect other than the soap starting to dry then burn.

I did some research and spoke to a resident soap mistress who also confirmed that a milled soap will not melt.

If you have melted milled soaps, I can only imagine they still had a high glycerin content, which would suggest that they aren't milled at all.

YMMV.
