Thank you for the consistent high-vibrational and soothing energy throughout your videos. I'm new to the channel (and also soap making), and was wondering if you or anyone else on the comments thread had any tips for getting harder castille/bastille soap. Because of my sensitive skin and young children I like to make gentle soaps with as few ingredients as possible. I almost exclusively use olive oil (pomace), and shea butter as my fats.

Add sodium lactate will help harden soap into very hard bars. Add about ½ teaspoon per pound of oil to the recipe. Stir it into the lye solution well, making sure it is fully dissolved before adding the lye to the oils.

I'm surprised it turned out so white. In my recipe I use cocoa butter, shea butter and olive oil and it turns a pastel yellow.

I buy organic olive oil bars from Greece- can I ask why theirs are dark green as opposed to white? Thanks!

Can we use it for face? Or its only for boday?

Help help! I think I put too much water in it. It will stay at the bottom and somehow soap isnt forming. What did I do wrong? How to fix this?

Adding sodium lactate speeds up the hardening of the bar.

Thank you so much! I wanted to make sure that the soap would go through gel so that's why I put it in the oven. Usually it's done by pre heating the oven to 50 degrees celsius, putting the soap in the oven and then turning it off and letting the soap sit there for a day or so.

Honest concern, why does google mention Lye being bad for skin, but is used in most soap?

@buttonvalley

9 ай бұрын

Lye is necessary for making soap. Any soap you've ever used was created using lye. The chemical reaction when lye and oils are mixed (saponification) creates a compound that is neither lye nor oil. It is soap.

After it's cured, yes. If you use it too soon it'll essentially be a sodium hydroxide relaxer to your hair which would not only potentially damage your hair but would be extremely dangerous to come in close contact with your skin and eyes.

Use cold water, as mixing in the lye causes an exothermic reaction, raising the temperature to nearly boiling.

Four to six weeks of cure time is necessary for the saponification process to complete. It insures that there is no free lye or oil remaining, and is completely safe to use.

Can I add stearic acid

@buttonvalley

Lye is a base. Acids and bases neutralize each other, so adding any type of acid will have a negative effect on the process. Likely, the liquid would not saponify or solidify.

i am wondering about the differences i am about to write. in soapcalc here are the numbers for a 500gr. batch of castile: 500 gr. Olive oil. (with a 5 % SF) 190.0 gr water (distilled) 64.35 gr. lye (NaOH) your numbers for a similar, 550 gr. batch: 550 gr. olive oil 85 gr. water (distilled) 70.8 gr lye the difference between the lye quantities is slight...but the water differences are very different...is there an explanation that you can say about the water differences? thanks for your input...kiitos!

The first recipe has a 25% lye concentration and the second I think has a 45% lye concentration. I prefer soaping with a water discount because this way I can unmold the soap quicker, I have less issues with soda ash and the soap will become much harder sooner as there's less water that needs to evaporate out of the soap while it's curing🙂

hi,please what is the difference between castile soap and marseille soap?

@tellervo.

3 жыл бұрын

Well they can be very similar and made out of similar ingredients. Castile soap is always 100% olive oil. Marseille soap means that the soap is produced in the Marseille region of France and it can contain other oils than olive oil too.

Lye=sodiumhydroxyde (caustic soda)no warning about getting seriously burned!

機械化おわってつくるものは分量が全く違います。大体1リットルに小さじ1の苛性ソーダで、スグにドロドロになって、型入れして、10分ごには出来上がりですし、へんな反応も示さないので、水を牛乳にしたり、果汁にしたり、です。そもそも作ることも実際なくて、パソコンで作っちゃうか、大量にあるものを、使います。

Stirring for two hours? No way. There are recipes that are much faster that involves heating the olive oil. I think I will try that. Also faster curing time. I would also prefer someone speaking.
