The only additive that I have as a % is the citric acid... the other I have to remove, then add back to the list to get the recommend usage rate for each additive,

If you change the oils, without resizing the recipe, the recipe will not automatically resize if that makes sense.
When you resize the recipe, it will adjust accordingly but if you just change the oils amounts, the recipe doesn’t “know” that your one teaspoon (for example) should be increased- it seems that you are just increasing an oil.
If you scale the whole recipe by the ‘resize’ feature, all ingredients will resize accordingly, but changing an oil amount doesn’t trigger that. Some people will add more olive oil, and that WILL change the lye/water, but not additives that are not based on a % of oil. I hope that makes sense!
