Does this account for extra lye needed?

[Laine]

If we add Citric Acid and/or Vinegar, does the calculator already account for the extra lye needed? Or do I have to calculate for the extra 0.624g lye needed for every gram of citric acid and the extra 0.49g lye needed for each gram of sodium acetate?

It calculates it for you, if you use them from our list that Admin entered (it has a star on it, so you know it was entered by use with the data). Sometimes people will add their own custom additives (say I added homemade champagne vinegar for example) and those will not have the support that the Admin added ingredients do. I hope that answers your question!
