I may said it the wrong way... It was not my statement (otherwise why to think run a business like that), but univercity teachers'... You see we have to support the big industry that feed us, not things that people started to make years ago... I emailed to a local org. and the answer I got was...

One week before I went to the nation drug org for infos... the employer said that for a business like that I had to hire a chemist to be supervisor of the production procedure.... But... there are local agricultural org. that produce soap, oil, jams etc. that they certainly don't have a...

Hi everyone! Recently I started thinking of the idea to sell my creations... Maybe not now, like tomorrow, but till next summer to open a small business.

I run it through mms calculator, I used: olive oil 350gr, coconut oil 250gr, almond oil 150gr, castor oil 50gr, grapeseed oil 25gr, 173gr of KOH and 300ml of water.... As for cooking hours.... in hp it is supposed that after gel phase saponification is almost done, doesn't that happen at liquid...

I see... I thought that the use of boric or citric acid is to lower the ph of a level 12 for example to 10 or nine.... So that is how things should be, I just had to neutralize at that phase and not expecting for the ph level to fall with more cooking??? Do I get it right?
