  4. MAY 2016 Soap of the Month Cold Processed 100% Coconut oil Soap This is a recipe that lot of people make on line I got mine from a friend and formulated the way I wanted it I have been making this recipe for my Granddaughters for 4 years now and became a favorite of lot of her students at her school. 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 to rest your Stick blender Thermometer Wooden sticks 1 small container for the 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 Ever since I start making soap 10 years ago I use a water discount 33% with all my soaps And 5% Super fat I don’t know why but this is how I do it its up to you if you want to use full water But in this recipe I use 33 % water discount 20 % Superfat So here it goes INGREDIENTS: Oils for 48 oz Coconut oil 48oz [100 %] Essential Oils .50 % Tea Tee oil .50% Rosemary .50% Clary Sage .50 % Lemongrass At trace 1.00 oz Hazelnut oil 1.00 oz Pomegranate oil 7.92 oz distilled water and 7.92 Almond, coconut, 7.04 Sodium hydroxide (formulated for 20 % superfat) Next, weigh your 7.92 oz distilled water and lye, ALWAYS combine the lye into the water and stir with your Spoon until the mixture is clear. Set aside to cool. When water and lye are cooling I mix in the Almond and Coconut Weigh the Coconut oil into your soap bowl and melted it down Weigh the Essential oils and set them aside 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 can ad your carrier oils And the essential oils Once everything is mix really good You start pour in to your mold you tap the soap on the counter for the bubbles to Come at the top. I do not insulate my soap; I just allow it to set on the counter I demold the soap the next day, and start cutting the soap, With this recipe I get 13-14 bars of soap I place the soap on a curing rack for at least for six to 8 weeks. - I always try the soap by washing my hands after a few days GOOD LUCK

      What is it that you want to copy/paste? If its a post I made there is a quote feature you can use. If its the soap of the month you need to use your own words for that. However, you can use my example as a format but it still needs to be in your own words. Sorry to be vague but there is a copyright involved.

      That is exactly what I meant Candybee I didn't mean to offend you

      II was asking your permission to use it as an example if I made a mistake  am sorry  and yes it is soap of the month

      Thank you

      No need to apologize. You did not offend me.

       

      I wrote the article in a manner that would teach a beginner how to make the soap. You don't have to do that. Just right about your process when you make the soap, what you like to do, what you like about it, or any a special technique or oil or additive, etc. that you like to use. If you have a special story that goes with the soap write about that.

       

      The soap of the month should be different each month. KWIM? Otherwise it would get boring after a month or two if we all used the same format or similar words.

       

      Good luck.

      You are lucky to have some free wax to play with. For palm wax I use either CSN or RRD wicks. I prefer CSN and only use RRD as a backup wick.

      Candle Science is the only supplier of CSN wicks. Use their wick guide to help you select the right size wick. My suggestion is try one size below their suggested wick size. These wicks burn hot and have a tall flame so I find a size smaller works best for me.

      Candlewic carries RRD wicks and you just select the size wick for your jar size.

      Good luck!
