Pauline, there is a slight difference between Canola and ordinary oil, but that
does still matter when calculating the lye/water in your recipe. I have posted
the site to download the calculator.

How about using 400ml Canola oil instead of Olive oil which is expensive. What
does Theresa Lott's recommends for Lye and water?

For
Palm 30 gms
Coconut 30 grams
Olive oil 40 grams
Theresa Lott's calc advises for the above
15.29g Lye ( 5% superfat 14.53g)
35.90g Water (5% superfat 35.90g)
I have always found for a basic soap, keep your Coconut and Olive similar
amounts and Palm about double. That has always worked for me so to speak. then
once you have mastered your Basic soap....play around!!
