Ive been watching you for a few yrs now and have made your castile soap recipies.. i love that you took the time to explain how to run this through soap calc ive been using it for bar soap so you explained it in a simple way that most soaper can understand i wanted more bubbles so i wanted to add castor oil so thank you sooooo much i appreciate all you do

Great video, good information. I can attest to the 0-2% Superfat working really well in liquid soap. There is definitely no separation and makes a nice liquid soap. That is a nice gentle recipe also 🙏🙏

You are amazing. This video answer ed my question in the liquid soap making. Thanks a lot. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you ❤️

I have lots more research to go, I want to be very well versed in soap making before starting. But my goal is to start making organic, eco sustainable (so no palm oil) pine tar bar soap. Gearing it for people with eczema (i have it) so I want it to be very moisturizing along with a good concentration of pine tar to help reduce need for steroid. Going to keep learning until I feel I have a good grasp on the concept as well as have developed a potential recipe fitting my needs.

Wooow! Thank you so much. Now I have a very good idea on how to use the SOAPCALC. I tried many times but I always fail. Now I will save your video for my future reference in making liquid soap. Thank you so much really very easy and most of all useful. So kind of you ma’am to share your video. Warm regards💗

Hi Ella, I’m in a loophole, binge watching your amazing videos! I live in the countryside (Italy) and I’d love to make soap using wood ash. We make our own olive oil, and we have wood and ash in abundance 😁 There are some videos on KZread, one very interesting about using ash lye to make the paste for liquid soap then keep cooking it and make bars too but they’re quite vague about measurements. I’d love to see you trying this ingredient because you’re so precise and clear when explaining 🙏🏻

It's extremely difficult to make soap precisely with wood ash (I've seen all the videos too). I've never tried it! Would like to experiment with it one day. I could probably figure it out, but would take quite some research :)

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, you didn't mention the glycerin in the calculation.

Thanks for the helpful advice so much. Could you tell me what would be the good ratio of KOH and NaOH and also the lye concentration if I want to make cold process liquid soap from 50% hard butter and 50 % oil.

First to comment.. thank you so much

Great stuff. My first soap was your hot process liquid soap recipe and then I went straight "off-piste" and started experimenting with superfat and other oils. I fancy trying bar soap next so I can increase the superfat (1% in my first soap left my hands super dry feeling, 3% in my second soap was good but it then won't hold a fragrance oil) but I have a question... why would I choose hot process over cold process for bar soap? I watched your video from a while back and there doesn't seem to be much advantage with hot process for bars, I wonder if you have discovered more since?

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking

2 жыл бұрын

Thank you, that's such a great question. I've never had much luck with CP liquid soap, but for bars there are some definite advantages for both methods. I must do a video on this! A bit long to explain here. I'm starting some 'viewer questions' videos soon - you're top of my list!!

Hi Elly, for this recipe if I want to use glycerin in the lye solution , how much water and glycerin will be divided to be equal to 599.68 gram of water in your original recipe? Thank you

Hi Elly Very nice video series I watched that liquid soap making video too. I had a question. Can we make cold process soap with palm oil or does it need heating. I had a recipe of 33% lye concentration, 60% palm oil, 25 % coconut oil and 15% castor oil with cold process soap bar. Bar is just made slightly soft with 5% super fat. Just is curing process. What is your opinion on this.

Hi Elly, thank you for the video. Are you enjoying Spring? We are suffering autumn here in Europe. I wondered if there are also recipes for bubble bath and the like in the book?

Hi, thank you, it's quite hot here, and very rainy! We're having a very 'tropical' feeling spring this year. Lots of storms and the humidity is high! There are recipes for soap gels and different things like that in the book, but they are all soap recipes so none would perform like a regular bubble bath.

Would love to see a soft version great for shampoo base.

Hi Elly, thanks for this video! I was not coming up with the same numbers you did, even though I was using the same percentages, etc. The difference was clicking the 90% KOH box. Once I did that, my numbers matched yours. I did want to ask if you can add silk to the lye water for liquid soap. Will the KOH dissolve silk and make a nice liquid soap like it does for bar soap?

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking

I’ve been doing cold process bar soaps and would like to start LS. 2 questions, how can I make sure my soap is thicker more like a bath gel and also, what’s the shelf life of the LS and are there any preservatives that should/could be used?

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Robert, it really depends on the oils you use. Fragrance oils and essential oils can really thicken liquid soap too! It's a bit challenging, but it can be done. I can highly recommend the Jackie Thompson book I have linked in the description box. It has shower gel soap recipes. The shelf life varies on lots of things, but my LS lasts for years. I have never used a preservative for my personal use batches.

Hello Elly. Thank you for this super instructional video. I would like to submit a question, please. All the liquid soaps I made yet are super soft on the skin as hand soap. But none has been effective for dishes that always stay a bit greasy of fatty. Could a dual lye help, or what oils would you recommand ? Thank you very much.

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking

I can't see why a LS would leave a fatty residue, as all the fats are saponified. But perhaps try a recipe with lots of coconut oil for a higher cleansing effect?

Hi, I'm not sure about liquid soap made with milk, but with bar soap it's fine. Plenty of people make bar soap with other mammal's milk with no preservative and they keep very well. Soap is high pH and is naturally preserving.

I've seen video from Brazil. Their soap must be very expensive, so they home cook soap in each household. Very interesting, but they use 1 liter of oil, mix it with 1 liter of alcohol, pour there 350g of caustic soda mixed with 350ml of water, 100g of sugar instead of glycerine, mix it by spatula for 30 min until the mixture becomes like a thick white paste. Then adding 2l of boiling water, then adding slowly about 10liters of tap water, mixing it all. In the end they add 1 cup of chlorine solution for clear soap. What can you say about it?

Please tell me about natural and safe pigments used to make handmade soaps?
