    Thank you both! So, if I want to add ROE, how much would I add to a 3lb batch? Would I need to adjust other amounts or just add it with the other essential oils?And can you explain what a chelator is?

    Tallow and preservatives

    Good morning! My son has been after me to help him make tallow based shave soap. I’ve been researching and *think* I’ve found a good recipe to try but it doesn’t include any preservatives. I read on another forum that lack of preservatives in a tallow based soap will allow the tallow to go...
