Water discount- I don’t get it

[ewhitake]

OK, I just don’t get Water discount. The recipe below call for 6% water discount, I think. How do I calculate that in soapcalc?

This is how I do it. Under the setting "Water as % of Oils", the default setting is 38. If you want to discount 6%, enter 32.

My thought: Weigh the egg and reduce the water amount by that weight. I think there's some info on DeeAnna's website for egg soaps that might be a good reference if one wanted to dial in exact water content.
