Can someone please help me understand this? I want to superfat the soap after the cook and I'm so confused.
If I want to superfat the soap with shea butter at 5%, how do I do that in soapcalc? I know I can superfat before the cook but setting the superfat discount to 5%, but how do I do that afterward?
If I take the shea butter out of the calculation, it comes to 95% and I need 100% for the calulator to work.
Example: My soap has 46 oz of oils, to superfat shea butter that would be 2.3oz of oil, but if I take that out, what do I add to make 100%? If I don't add something, won't it be lye heavy if I keep the shea in the calculation, but just don't use it?
I'm sorry if this is confusing, I'm just confused.:eh:
