dublon Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hi all,Quick question. My supplier has no castor oil in stock, and I have none left.I was wondering if I could use Turkey Red Castor oil instead for making liquid soap?????Any comments would sincerely be appreciated!!Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublon Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 I do used Turkey Red when my liquid soap has been diluted, but can I add it in the main recipe?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 It's not the same thing at all. Turkey red is sulfonated castor oil. The properties are far different from 'regular' castor. Soapers Choice has regular castor in stock. They ship fast too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) I have made my liquid soap without Castor it is very nice and creamy I do add the Red Turkey oil after the cook. I made a liquid soap a couple of months ago used Zero superfat and did not add the Red Turkey oil or the Castor and the soap is the creamiest I have ever made. It will be creamy but not bubblyMade a great soap for the Foamer bottles without the castor. Edited November 9, 2011 by Barbara AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublon Posted November 9, 2011 Author Share Posted November 9, 2011 Thanks Barbara... I'll give it a try! I'm always afraid to break away from a true and trusted recipe, but it sounds interesting. I like the sounds of creamy!! And thanks to Talltayl for the input. I didn't even think to check the properties before posting... It was 5:30 this morning!!!
