I made a batch of bastille yesterday and I just realized that I calculated the wrong OO into the recipe. I have both EVOO and pomace. I figured my recipe for EVOO but I used pomace. The only difference that I'm worried about is the lye amount. In my two pound recipes, the EVOO one calls for 120.563g whereas pomace recipe uses 119.519g. I SFed at 5% so I'm hoping it won't make that big of a difference.
 
According to soapcalc, the difference between OO and pomace is very little. I use both interchangeably and never adjust my lye.
 
Ok thank you. I didn't think it would make a difference but I wanted to be sure. The more I think about it, I think I May have even rounded my lye down to 119g anyway
