Fatty acids, soap qualities, pictorial oil chart.

[TVivian]

I was making another YouTube video, trying to explain fatty acids, soap qualities in basic Soapmaking oils and formulating your own recipes (it's really harder to explain out loud than I realized ) for new soapers. At the end I had what looked like an oil chart so I thought I'd post it up. I listed the two, sometimes 3 highest fatty acids in each oil.

I love that - well done!

Thanks! And now I have 23+ ounces of oils I don't feel like pouring back, so I think I'm going to try making a 23 oil soap.

I would love to hear about how that goes and see photos of the final product!

Same here! And it took me a long time to understand fatty acids because most things you read make it seem so complicated. I hope once my video is done, it will help simplify it a little bit
