Hello everyone! I'll be very grateful if someone can help me with this problem. So I recently learned that my recipes are in "low lye concentration" range (water as % of oil weight = 35% , which means lye concentration = 28%). But in all my recipes 50-60% of water amount is substituted by coconut milk ( in water, before reacting with lye). So my question is should I increase the amount of lye concentration in the recipes or continue using these proportions? If I should continue using same lye concentration should I increase my curing time (to account for more water %) or 4-5 weeks is sufficient ?
Thank you all.
