Hi, as a newbie soaper, I have been thinking on making soap bars with only one oil.
I've been reading so much and see that all the experienced soapers know the oil properties like the palm of their hands. So I thought of making 1lb batches of 100% oil soaps to get to know the oils better.
I wonder if its worth it to make 100% olive, 100% coconut, 100%palm bars?
I know the olive one would be useful in about 6 months (or am I wrong?) and the coconut one would be too harsh, can it be used?
If you guys think it's worth to try, should I make them all with the same superfat % and lye solution concentration or should I make for example the olive one with low superfat and high lye concentration, the coconut and palm ones with more superfat than the olive and low lye concentration?
This superfat and lye concentration deal is making me crazy! How do you guys decide what is the best combination?
I feel like I'm drowning myself in a glass of water!
