**85g finished soap into oils Post-Cook 40% soap dilution - 453.6g hot water plus 56.7 additional if needed Heat dilution water in microwave or boil on stove Melt oils to 215°F Weigh water for lye solution and glycerin into one container Weigh salt, sorbitol, liquid soap. Liquid soap to hot oils and stir. When oils have reached 215°F prepare lye solution with salt and sorbitol. Combine with oils & liquid soap. Turn immersion blender onto low and place near the bottom of the crockpot. Allow blender to rest in the middle for 30 seconds. As soap begins to thicken you may increase speed and begin to slowly move blender in a circular motion or leave in the middle. Continue to use the immersion blender for the next 3-5 minutes past applesauce, mashed potato stages and 30 seconds into bubbly milk/cream stage. Remove immersion blender and cover the recipe with the crockpot lid. Allow to sit for 3-5 minutes or until soap tests neutral. Add half of hot dilution water to soap neutral cream phase and blend for 15-30 seconds. Add the second half of the hot dilution water and blend 15-30 seconds. Allow soap to remain in crockpot for 20 minutes until it is completely clear on the bottom. Check and stir every 10 minutes. Make sure temperature is below boiling so water does not evaporate. Once soap is clear remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Stirring while cooling will remove bubbles and if any anhydrous soap remains in can be removed and diluted separately and added back into the full recipe. As the soap cools it will thicken. If recipe needs additional dilution or to reduce the soap concentration add warm water in small 2 oz. increments. After you have reached your desired soap concentration add any additional additives, fragrance or preservatives.
