Recipe Instructions
Use HP Process. cook with saran wrap and lid on until translucent. check every 10-15 minutes. Cook on low. Add FO and aloe gel.Take out of crock pot and put into the plastic containers to slow the temps, before adding the end ingredients. Add the FO or EO, the Aloe Gel, the MIca. Stir. Pour layers of colors into the molds. Use the gear wrap to make designs in the fabric. If the zinc oxide arrives. use it as the recipe describes. For now, stay with 2 colors only. or if needs to be in 3 plastic containers due to size of soap batch: use "natural", color 1 dark, and color 2 slightly lighter..Layer into the mold. Find gear wraps and put in first, 3 places, then add the soap. This time deep orange, medium orange, and natural. Am I going to use zinc oxide?
A score developed which combines SAP and Iodine values to predict a soap's qualities. A score of 136-170 is conidered acceptable. A score of 160 is ideal.
INS: 142.11 (ideal)
ideal
Lower number makes a harder, less conditioning bar of soap. Higher number is a softer, more conditioning bar.
iodine: 69.77 (ideal)
