    Mp soap standard

    Is the alcohol you mentioned the same as rubbing alcohol? Also, in my place its hard to get 99% rubbing alcohol. I can only get 96%. Will tht matters? For the colorant, is it okay for us to use food colorant?? I am just scared that it will bleed when i use the soap :(

    Oil base temperature

    I hear that the lye solution have to be under 60 degree before mixing it up with oils. Do i need to heat up my oil base too before combining the oil with lye solution? Will the temperature of the base oil effect the final bar?? Thanks!

    100% coconut oil soap

    I heard high amount of superfat may cause dos and soda ash. If we put the supefat to 30% to counter the drying results of the bar, wont it cause the problem to arise? Or is there a trick to avoid it?
