Brief Description |

Castor Oil
|
Castor Oil is chemically dissimilar to
all other soapmaking oils, and imparts unique qualities to soap lather. 5%
Castor Oil in a soap recipe results in much creamier lather
than would otherwise result. If you are using a low-coconut-oil
recipe, Castor Oil can help bring back some lather to your bars. Castor oil
is saponified with the other oils used in your soap recipe and is not added
at "trace."

Coconut Oil - 76 Degree
Comes in a Bucket
|
Standard 76 degree, RBD, ("refined,
bleached and deodorized"), food-quality coconut oil. This is plain coconut
oil. Commonly used in the
confectionery and infant formula industries. Works fine in soap as well. Recommended SAP Value (Sodium Hydroxide) =
.178.
Note
that we do not pass through the shipping premium
(sometimes
$10.00!) for 5 gallon products charged by carriers. You pay for shipping
by weight only.

Coconut Oil - 92 Degree
Comes in a Box
Picture Coming Soon (hopefully)!
|
92 Degree Coconut oil is 76 Degree coconut oil that has been
partially hydrogenated to raise it's melting point. Works just the same as
76 degree in soap, save for the fact that theoretically it should produce a
slightly harder bar of soap. A little less expensive than the 76 degree
variety. Recommended SAP Value (Sodium Hydroxide) =
.182. We don't ship this oil during
the warm weather months - so stock up while it's still cool. This oil has a
very long (18 months in a cool location) shelf life.

Grapeseed Oil
(Spain)
Variety: Vitis Vinifera
Note: We add Rosemary Oleoresin Extract
(ROE), a natural anti-oxidant derived from Rosemary
Officinalis to all of our grapeseed oil to extend its
shelf life. Being highly unsaturated, grapeseed oil
needs this little bit of anti-oxidant to gain a
reasonable shelf life on an open container. If you
shouldn't want the ROE added to your grapeseed oil, let
us know in the "comments" section of the shopping cart
and we will leave it out. The color, feel and smell of the grapeseed
oil is not effected by ROE. |
Extracted from the seeds of wine grapes, this is a
light, penetrating oil useful in massage oils and
lotions. This oil is much less saturated than almond and
is easily absorbed into the skin. Considerably less
greasy in lotions than almond and apricot. Shelf life in
a closed container is good, but not as long as apricot
or almond. When used in a water & oil emulsion lotion,
this oil is more in-need of an anti-oxidant than the
more saturated oils.
Approximate Fatty Acid Profile of Grapeseed Oil:
Linolenic
1%
Linoleic
64%
Oleic

Stearic

Earth Mother
Whole Olive Oil
|
We've reached far into the hinterlands of Andalusia and beyond to bring you
this absolutely unequalled, whole virgin olive oil. Rich in the
natural stearines and waxes found in hand pressed olive oils a
generation ago, this
oil has not been filtered, refined or winterized. This oil has a murky
appearance, especially in cold weather, and comes complete with a little
sediment in the bottom of each pail. Very strongly colored, and with a polyphenol count of over 500, this olive packs a punch not often found
elsewhere. This olive is normally blended with less-expensive, bland olive
oils to provide character and color. Intense. The Vincent Van Gogh of olive oils.
(if you use more than just a little of this oil in soap - you'll never get a
white bar, but rather a very creamy-yellow bar that is difficult to color).

$174.60 for 5 gallons

High Oleic
Oil Blend
"Mission Peak Blend"
10% Extra Virgin Olive
90% No-GMO High Oleic Canola
|
In the old days, there was always a surplus of some over-the-hill olive oil
around, stuff too nasty to be eaten, but just fine for lamp oil. When
someone hatched the idea to try a bit in soap - it sounded great: finally! a
place to get rid of the stuff! But how times have changed. Nowadays, every
drop of olive is coveted, and thru a miracle of technology, producers now
purge the yucky smell and taste from even the most rancid of oils. This
purified oil is then artfully blended back into a little of the good stuff
for table use. And it isn't cheap.
Combine this story with the fact that over the last 20 years many new seed
crops have been discovered and developed to yield high-oleic oils which,
save for taste and color, are very similar to olive, and you're standing on
a wooden leg if you believe you still gotta have olive to make a nice bar of
soap.
Our High Oleic Canola (no GMO) has a fatty acid profile nearly
identical to olive and works absolutely great in soap. Here we offer a blend
of 90% High Oleic Canola and 10% Extra Virgin Olive Oil (so you can still
says that your soap contains some olive oil...) made especially for soapmaking. SAP Value (NaOH) = .134. Great Price!

Palm Oil - Votated
In a 50 LB box
(Homogenized)
50 LB. Cube in a box.
Note: Doesn't ship well in hot weather. |
This palm oil is great for soap. Homogenous from
top to bottom. No heating and stirring needed. This
is the same oil as "standard" palm oil , except It has
been mixed while cooling (called "votated" in the oil
trade) to eliminate separation in the final packaging. Easy to use (and
a great substitute for regular "shortening" if you like to bake). Recommended
SAP Value (Sodium Hydroxide) = .144

Votated Palm Oil
$68.13 for 50 LBS

are 36 Boxes on a pallet. You can pick-up at our warehouse in Hayward, CA.
Call 510-795-1326 or

A whole lot easier to use than palm in drums!
