    Soda ash

    So when I speak of a water discount I take my water amount and multiply it by 13 to 14%. I got this from the soap queens blog. Where as I used to use the section in the soapcalc that was the water as % of oils. I used to take it to 33% until further reading into water discounts. I now use 33%...

    Hard Water Issues

    I do not have time to spare to look for a link to anything. I do know the FDA does not classify some melt and pour, as soap. Because it has more detergents and non soap components, so its classified as a cosmetic not soap. But my OP had nothing to do with melt and pour. It was simply asking...
