Recipe Instructions
A full replacement of coconut milk will be used instead of distilled water to dissolve the lye. Coconut milk needs to be frozen before adding lye to prevent scorching.

Additional Lye needed to neutralize citric acid. Add extra lye to required lye amount once coconut milk is frozen.
Sodium Lactate (@2%) - add to coconut milk/lye solution AFTER solution has cooled below 100 degrees.
Colloidal Oatmeal (@~2%) -blend with 2 tbsps of the hot oils. Blend well into a slurry and blend well into the warm oils BEFORE adding lye solution.
Diluted Honey (@~2%) - dilute honey with 1 tablespoon of distilled water. Add to soap batter at light trace. Blend well by hand.
Fragrance (Oatmeal, Milk & Honey from Brambleberry) - add at light trace. Blend well by hand.
