Great video, love the clear instructions. Beautiful soap. Now I'm not afraid to try it. Thank you. Looking forward to more of your videos. Keep up the good work.
@marjs29 Thanks so much for your great comment! I also have a French Mill Tutorial that's even more detailed. You can find this on Etsy (Ultimateorganicsoap) if you need some extra help. I wish you all the best of luck!
@beckiebenoit40 as far as I know all soaps can be melted down. If you purchase commercial soaps for this, this is better known as rebatching. Many people do this, and while I don't have experience with this (I have not used commercial soaps in years) there is a lot of information out on the web about it. Good luck!
Sorry its not worth the time invested. Ill stick to cp and melt and pour much faster and you dont! destroy any oils u add because it is incorperated with in the soap and you add more fats and oils once the soap is readly to pour.
@BareHerbalBubbles@BareHerbalBubbles I'm so sorry for any confusion. You are quite correct that added oils are NOT destroyed. I was referring to additional ingredients such as herbs, spices and flowers. Seaweed, for example, is completely destroyed by the saponification process. And since I use ingredients direct from nature, this is pretty important.
@gamemeister27 -- That would be a great idea - Vanilla extract is hard to find in my part of the country, so I am using whole vanilla pods in some of my rose soaps. They look great.
I really enjoyed this video! You have inspired me to try to make some myself for the very first time. Please tell me how you make your bases so that I can too.
It makes it more compact (lasts much longer than regular CP soap) and any addition ingredients are not destroyed as there has not been any chemical/saponificiation process.

@gretcha73 - this is originally how French Milling started. Now it is a term that has evolved to include remelting. Thanks for asking!

how much EO do you add in? Do you add less than if it was cold process soap?
jarani8 1 year ago
@jarani8 -- I usually use 5 - 7 ml of EO's in my batches. You can no doubt use more, but I like to keep my soaps from smelling too much.
