Can someone help me figure out what happened here?
roblem:
According to soapcalc this liquid soap should have had a bubbly ratio of 56 but the actual soap was a total unsudsy flop...
22 oz h20
12.20 oz koh lye
14 oz coconut oil
27 oz castor oil
14 oz palmolein
5 oz soybean oil
Lye was combined with oils at about 95 degrees
cooking was uneventful
diluted to a nice gel consistancy
neutralized with 1/2 cup 33% borax solution
final ph 6.5
came out a beautiful golden color
I did not sequester
any idea what went wrong?
The original idea was to add this to my liquid shampoo to enhance the bubbles.
Would sequestering this improve bubbles or is it a problem with the recipe?
