The recipe I used first time was:
50% olive oil, 31% coconut oil, 15% castor oil, 3.5% stearic acid
Problem is that soap is pretty soft. Anybody has tried a harder recipe ?
Obviously, I could replace olive with palm or add more stearic, but one of the resources I read suggested that more than 3.5% stearic isn't a good idea. Don't remember exactly why.
