I'm going to attempt to copy it but wondering:
comparing profiles of lard and palm - I bet they're different enough to impact the results - other opinions?
They only use pko. In terms of measuring bubble - does 10% pko make the equivalent of 10% co?
Their ingredient lists palm kernel fatty acid. Curious. What are they trying to say there? Isn't that just saponified pko?
And salt is listed as a natural product of saponification, but they don't mean sodium chloride, right?
Does the triple milling process affect the qualities of the soap - like the softness of the lather, slip, etc?
Not a lot of large bubbles - maybe even less than 10% pko, more creamy with a milky layer as well. Sleek feel to the bar, soft lather.
