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!! Beryl
