  20. OCTOBER 2016 Soap of the Month Cold Processed Lemongrass & Eucalyptus Activated Charcoal With 40% Shea Butter Equipment needed: A good working digital scale Large enough container to hold a 48 ounces oil batch of soap Stick blender 1 container for lye one-container for water Paper towels Thermometer Rubber Spatulas Set of measuring spoons 2 small containers for extra oils 1 small container for the Essential oils, Freezer paper if needed to line your mold, Soap Mold for 48 oz of oils And rubber gloves PLEASE ALWAYS RUN YOUR RECIPE THROUGH A LYE CALCULATOR This is a 33% lye concentration with a 5% Super fat My recipe INGREDIENTS: Oils for 48 oz 40 % Shea Butter (544.31 Gr) 30 % Olive oil (408.23 Gr) 15% Coconut oil (204.12 gr) 10% Palm oil flakes (136.08 Gr) 5% Castor oil (68.4Gr) Water oz 15.84 Aloe Vera Juice (449.06 Grams) Lye oz 6.53 (185.13 Grams) ADDITIVES: V.E. 0.70 3 tsp of Activated Charcoal Essential oils 1 oz Lemongrass 1 oz Eucalyptus Super fat @ 5% Lye Concentration: 33% Next, weigh your lye oz. distilled water {I am using Aloe Vera Juice} ALWAYS combine the lye into the water and stir with your stick until the mixture is clear. Set aside to cool. Weigh your oils into your bowl and melt them down Weigh the Essential oils V.E and activated charcoal and mix them all thoroughly blend I always soap @ a room temperature When everything is ready I start Slowly pour the lye into the oil mixture, stick blend ONLY until you see a light trace. As long as the mixture is fully emulsified and it reaches a light trace, you add the mixture of your essential oils the V.E and Activated charcoal Once everything is mixed thoroughly stick blend until you are ready. To start pour in to your mold you tap the soap on the counter for the bubbles to rise and pop. I donโ€™t insulate my soap I just cover it with a towel for 24 to 30 hrs... And then I unmold and cut and let it sit for 4 to 6 weeks
