OK sure, I can post the steps. It will be later tonight though after I get my real work done and gather up all the instructions. This is not a "melt and pour" recipe where you are simply melting soap and re-pouring it into molds. Also, there is no cook time. It is called the "cold process" method. Basically you just add the fats to the water-lye mixture at the correct temps so that it will "saponify".
