Oil Catalog and Calculations

Soapie bundles oil reference data and calculation assumptions so saved recipes remain reproducible and inspectable.

Soapie uses a bundled oil catalog rather than live web lookups. That keeps saved recipes tied to a stable set of SAP values and fatty acid profiles.

Why this is part of the product story

For soapmakers, reference data is not a decoration. It is part of the formula itself. If those inputs drift silently, historical recipes become harder to trust.

What the catalog supports

  • 172 bundled oils at launch
  • visible SAP and profile context
  • stable offline behavior
  • versioned calculations that can be explained later
