I have been making your milk chocolate using your suggested 25% blend of cocoa, sugar, milk power, and cocoa butter. I'm curious what the best way would be to try different percentages without messing up the end product?

I have tried making a milk chocolate with coconut milk powder but it is really soft and it is driving me crazy. I want the flavor really strong so I used 35% coconut power but it won’t set up. Should I use less cocoa butter? I put in about 8 oz to a two pound batch. I’ve even tried tempering it and it stays soft.
It looks like you ended up with the perfect storm of a recipe to just not behave in a cooperative fashion. You both have too much fat in the recipe and too much of it is coconut oil. Let’s see if we can get you a good coconut milk chocolate recipe that is still strongly flavored.
