I think I’m overreacting again but I’ve never made such a small batch that I’d like to confirm with everyone.
Olive oil 56.7g
Water 21.9g
KOH 13g
Citric acid 1.5g
I am reasonably comfortable with my scale, it’s a jewelry scale and reads to 0.000. It has also been only 45 minutes. Currently my batter is hover around 78F, it’s mid 70’s inside with low 60’s outside (window open all just measured with my temp gun). After mixing to my initial false emulsion temp read just above 100F. I’ve been mixing for approx 30-45 seconds every few minutes for the past 45, after typing most of this I’m at thin trace trails. I’ve got to make breakfast soon, so I’ll probably leave it for a bit.
Just wanted to ask if my numbers look ok to a more mathematical mind. I’m afraid of getting false trace due to temp/small batch size and worried my citric acid numbers are off. I used DeeAnna’s numbers but the small batch thing worries me a bit
