I've made a soap since January, and had lots of them since then, I never failed with soap making that I used another calcul which the app doesn't have a Coconut Virgin Oil but only Coconut.
I use Coconut Virgin Oil, and Palm oil only.
But I found here yesterday there was a list section where I can choose "COCONUT VIRGIN OIL' not like others.
Oddly, NaOH is much less than other calculs but why not? I didn't doubt about it and thus it seems a trustworthy website here where lots of soap makers use.
With Palm and Coconut oil, my batch should be harden within 3 hours but it has been 24 hours past. It's still soft.
I googled the cause, several articles mentioned if NaOH is not enough, make the batch soft and failed.
Do you think the calculator here is inaccurate? or Should I wait more??? Its Coconut oil and palm oil.
I made the same batch 2 days ago with another APP calculator that doesn't have Coconut Virgin oil but only COCONUT OIL.
Go to the calcul, and try it with Coconut Virgin oil. NaOH drops around from 256g with COCONUT 76 to 211g with Coconut Virgin oil.
I used Coconut virgin oil of 900g, and Palm oil of 600g.
With 256g of NaOH, I didn't have any problem 2 days ago, (i made several batches two days in a row) And it usually hardens with 3 hours so.
