Making and Cutting 100% Coconut Oil Soap with Coconut Milk

Happy Thursday!

For those who are new, welcome to Pimmy’s Handcrafted Soap. Welcome back to those who have been here a while. I hope everyone is doing well!

This week’s soap is 100% coconut oil soap. We love coconut oil because it’s great for the skin, it’s bubbly, and it gives a white hard bar (if you don’t color it). Please check out the links below about superfat and gel phase. In this batch I used 25% superfat. I was a bit bummed at first that this batch got partial gel. But after a few days, it didn’t look as bad as in the video. You can find the nicer bars in my Instagram in a few days.

I like reading articles from Bramble Berry and Lovin Soap Studio. They are very helpful. Check out their other articles to learn more!

You guys have a great week ahead!

Recipe for a 2 lb loaf (double this recipe for a double batch):
32 oz Coconut Oil
5.8 oz Water
4.4 oz Sodium Hydroxide aka Lye
3 oz Coconut Milk
1.4 oz Exotic Coconut Type Fragrance Oil (Nature’s Garden)
2 tsp Sea Salt
*2 tsp Salt
I usually add 1 tsp of salt per pound of oils for better release from mold and to harden the soap - mix it in the water part before you add the lye.
