    CP soap adding plant extracts (tamarind, ...)

    How to figure how much oil for mold.

    I use this same method in making silicon mold so i can figure out how much silicon rubber to use for my mold. And i tried it on my first batch of soap and it worked!

    How to figure how much oil for mold.

    Rice grain weight = 700g So if your water percentage is 35% 700g * 0.35 = 245g (water weight) 700g - 245g = 455g (oil weight) :) haven't tried the formula WxLxH x 0.7 but will try it soon :)

    How to figure how much oil for mold.

    Yes i computed using soapcalc. So if my total oil weight is 500g + 35% of water the soap mixture will fit my mold :)
