Making a batch with 650g canola oil and 250g coconut oil which requires 128g lye for 5% superfat
Adding 10g of citric acid which would neutralise 6g lye, so would want 134g of lye instead of 128g
Are these calculations correct and safe? The soap wouldn't be too harsh would it? Using the sage soap calculator for this and actually using rapeseed instead of canola oil but same difference canola oil is just genetically modified rapeseed right?
