Why You Should Try a 50% Water Discount in Soap Making

Discover the magic of soap making with a 50% water discount! 🌟 In this video, I’m diving into uncharted waters (pun intended 😉) by experimenting with a 50% water discount in my soap recipe. Using a non-accelerating fragrance like Vanilla Bean Noel, I’m excited to see how this affects the soap’s texture and curing time.
Why should YOU try a 50% water discount in soap making? For one, it can speed up the curing process, allowing you to cut and use your soap sooner. Plus, it adds a beautiful sheen and helps eliminate soda ash, giving your soap a gorgeous finish without any extra coloring.
👩‍🔬 Join me as I walk you through my process, share my thoughts, and show you the results. Whether you’re a seasoned soap maker or just starting out, this experiment is bound to inspire you to push your creative boundaries.

    When using this method all you need to do is reduce the required water amount by half. That's it.

    Love the texturized top and the width of the cut. It really does make a lovely bar.

    Tiggy, thank you for this video. I just challenge myself to do a water discount and was so happy. No soda ash and could unmold the soap around 15 hours. First time!. Love your videos.

    Thank you for this post. I have made 4 batches of the most beautiful soaps based on your video. The batches have had no soda ash. They all have the most brilliant luster and color, and the bars are the hardest bars I've made to date. I did notice that trace took way longer - LOL, but overall worth it. My water reduction is 23% water to the weight of oils. The key for me has been making sure the discounted water is never less than the weight of the lye. Again, thanks.

    I make hot process soap, and was discouraged to discount water. Since I do add yogurt, I tried discounting 25% and it worked out great. Thanks!

    You inspired me to start using deep water discounts in my unscented batches. I love how fast my soap hardens and I've had mo issue at all with acceleration or anything. Thank you for showing that huge water discounts can be done!
