Aldi Nord, ride or die!!!!! AOO AOO AOO :p I'm uploading the labels in case anyone is curious: so the "coconut fat" has 91% unsaturated fat, with the virgin cold pressed coconut oil having 93.7%. coconut taste and all that stuff that's important when cooking w these things is negated in...

IT HURTS!! (my wallet :p) 5-6 months is a hell of a long time for a cure, isn't it? It sounds like your 90/10 olive castor came out the best? I hope that carries over to canola!!!! I'm going to give that ratio a shot, maybe throw in 5% castor

Lard, Coconut oil, coconut FAT??!?! (WTH IS THIS STUFF) and some mid-oelic rapsoil at the ready for some experiments next week! (castor oil should be here today via mail, but that wasn't from the supermarket)

So I went to the supermarket to try to plan my own entry to the "supermarket challenge" We all know coconut oil. But I came across this stuff: Coconut FAT. It was about 1/3 the price of the coconut oil. I never heard of this stuff before today. In english, I can find no distinction between the...

I'd start a 100% rapeseed oil w saltwater, and a 85% rapeseed, 10% coco, 5% caster (i'm very curious about this) w saltwater today, to compare them, if I could. I have to wait til next week :( 0% superfat for sure, right?? for the 100% rapeseed, I was thinking of throwing in some coffee...

I have to try it anyway. I really wonder, if we should all be posting our weather/curing conditions, with our recipes. A rough estimation of temps and humidity, or something. The fact that the same recipe is giving ppl 2 year old bars, or giong dossy in 6 months, using the same recipe, is...

I don't wanna buy more ingredients!! :p I think the moment I see a spot, I'd jump on this boat. I wanna see if I can get away with this one, first. These are additives, but ones I already have in my house. I'd give these a shot! Do you think sugar has an effect on DOS? I imagine that salt...

I think this is one of those cases, where I feel 100% comfortable blindly trusting people with more experience than myself, rather than being stubborn, and having to find out the hard way, and being stuck with bars of soap nobody wants to use. I was fully prepared to include minimum 10%coconut...

Hello everyone, So I have access to cheap mid-oelic rapeseed oil. I'd really like to try to turn this into some decent soap... I also have access to pretty cheap lard. I have access to coconut oil and castor oil, two ingredients that I bought, in preparation for making a "perfect soap" based...

I don't know what the proper etiquette is! Making a new post on some other forums, when one already exists, is considered rude :P then I get told to use the search bar :PPP Would you consider lard a hard oil? Although I do have access them to them, Coconut oil is pretty pricey also, as well...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread! I,also have access to some really affordable rapeseed oil, which seems to he mid-oleic! I also have heard that a lower superfat% could stave off potential DOS. Also, since this thread popped up, and the recipe (Zany's no slime castille) which i have had my...
