RE: Advice - Using Glycerin instead of lye?

Hi all . Does anyone know - if I can use glycerin instead of lye for this recipe? I would really, like to make a big batch of this! I am relatively new to soapmaking.

I prefer, glycerin soap recipes.

Olive 35%

Palm 35%

Coconut 20%

Shea Butter 10%

A nearly 2 pound batch with a 5% super fat and full water would be:

palm 7 oz

coconut 4 oz

olive oil 7 oz

shea 2 oz

fo/eo 1.2 oz

lye 2.79oz

water 6.85oz

This makes a really nice hard bar that lathers well!

Can anyone tell me? Please email me.

Thank you, all. Tina_2
