palm oil...which one? Im confused

[sunny71]

So i've decided to order from soapers choice.
There are so many Palm oils...organic, deodorized, bleached, rspo sustainable oh my goodness. Can anyone suggest a basic palm oil for a newbie?:sad:

I would go with the [FONT=Arial, Geneva, helvetica]Palm Oil, Refined, Bleached, Deodorized($1.88 per pound)[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Geneva, helvetica] 7 lb. Plastic Bottle.[/FONT]

I used to order the cheapest I could find, but now I order sustainable. Soapers Choice offers 7 lb of sustainable, refined, organic palm oil for $14.70. Shipping to my area is 7.06.

If you haven't made soap before, I'd get the cheapest uncolored palm you can find. There's no sense spending more than you need to if you don't know if you like soaping yet.

and the coconut oil

so many grades. what would be a good basic coconut oil?

 

[cmzaha]

76 degree coconut oil is just fine unless you are going all organic. 92 degree coconut is hydrogenated so it is harder and melts at a higher temp.
