does coconut solid dissolve
Dissolving coconut oil. I am asking this question on behalf of my wife who makes a lot of soap. This time she is using Coconut oil, it is quite thick and not in liquid form.I understand quite well that you could dissolve this in Ethanol, and upon heating the alchohol would evaporate so would not affect the soap.orry. secondly she did heat the coconut oil up in warm water and it did dissolve, the problem was that it precipitated after it was mixed with the following ingredients: 60 mls of water, dried lavender, 'pinch' of citric acid granules. the water was boiled.
