I normally take the percentage and multiply it by the number of oz batch i want to make. For example, 17% X 8 (oz) = 1.36 oz. I do this for each ingredient, then add up the converted oz to verify that it equals the number of oz batch I want to make. Hope this makes sense

If you have %s and need to convert to actual weights, another way of doing it without the math headache is to enter the percents into the MMS calculator. That will give you a 100 ounce recipe, but you can resize the recipe to whatever you want on the second page and it will still keep the correct proportions.

If you have weights and want %s, same thing. Enter the weights in MMS, and the second page will tell you what the %s are.

This calculator uses %. Enter the batch size abd the % of each oil, and it returns the oils, lye and water in weights.
