gilfish,
To determine soap ppm, the formula is:
Soap ppm (KOH) = ml HCl x Normality x 320,400/g sample

gilfish,
I made a mistake in the previous post. The 304,400 should be changed to 320,400 for KOH.
This is the formula I have been using as I read it on here from CGC.
I've never tried to discect the math though until today and I'm not so certain it's correct, or my brain isn't functioning properly. I'm going to start another discussion maybe someone can help out.

gilfish,
The formula from GCG is spot on.
My math/ train of thought was incorrect. My appologies.
