I've been researching how to make castille soap ... but I still have questions.
I thought making castille was about adding lye to olive oil ... stick blend until trace ... put in moulds ... unmould when ready ... leave to cure ... which will take longer due to this being a soft oil soap. But my research has come up with a mixture of responses to questions I need answers to before I make castille. Please help ...
I have olive oil and extra virgin olive oil ... which would you recommend?
I've read about differing % superfatting ... can you please tell what's worked best for you?
Plus any other hints would be appreciated!
Thanks heaps and have a wonderful weekend of soaping!
