Your iodone is too low, this soap may be too hard, trace too fast, be unmanageable. I would lower the hard oils. 48 oz batch, correct?

How about:

Babassu 10%

Cocoa Butter 7.5%

Coconut 20%

Shea 7.5%

Sunflower 20%

Olive 35%

Hardness 40

Cleansing 20

Conditioning 56

Fluffy 20

Stable 19

Iodine 66
