Any suggestions? I measured and poured my oils to make
A batch of soap. Afterward I spilled some of the oils. Is there
any way I can still use this oil to make soap eventhough I
spilled some? I may have spill 2 ounces.
 
All you'll have to do is re - weigh the whole batch and work out how much you are short from your total and just add some back in. 2 ounces is not that much to worry about which oil to replace.
 
But will the lye be equal? The oils were in different amounts for example
5 oz olive
7 oz coconut
4 castor
So if I spilled some how will I calculate? I want to incorporate the correct
amount of lye per oil. If you get what I'm saying.

I have to fully agree. You can always add a little of each oil to make up your approx missing 2 oz. It will be just fine. If you get a little to much oil you will just up the superfat
