I don't know about a definite maximum but I love 10% Cocoa Butter, and I've done Mango Butter right up to 50% which I love

CB will accelerate your trace a bit.

50% Cocoa butter will give you a hard bar, but you might not get many bubbles.

I'd love to know how you go on with the Venus78, as I'm sure will many other soapers. Please keep us informed!!

That would be some expensive soap! I love cocoa butter in soap though. Let us know how it turns out.

not to hijack the thread but I see it's a bit dated. I came into 10 lbs of shea free and am about to try

52% beef tallow
25% shea
14% coconut
9% castor

I have some super soft rebatch I will add before hp cook, which will lower the cleansing value...so I am only doing a 3% superfat
