How to Make Lye Soap : Hand Milling or French Milling Soap for Homemade Lye Soap Making

[Fangirlwhocanspell]

Why can't you just put in the oils and stuff the first time you are making the soap before you put it in the molds?

Can I add some glycerin to my batch of hand milled soap when I add the other ingredients? Also how much could I add to a 12 oz batch of grated soap?

Thanks.

the time it takes to make the soap from scratch and melt it and rebatch it; is what makes it intriquing..for me. the more you work with it..the more it becomes your own formulation..making soap is an art not a hobby....for serious soapers..

Thank you for your awesome videos! But

I thought french milled meant it went through metal rollers and turned into thin sheets then compacted into shapes.

This is hand milling then rebatching I think.

I am a visual person, and milling makes more sense to me. I have some soap that I grated but didn't understand what to do next so I saved it...a year now. I will now process my milled soap. No give-aways here! ;-)

Thank you so much - I can't wait to make my own. Do you have any recipes using goat milk?

I tried this & I just detest rebatching. It makes no sense at all to spend all that time making the soap, then breaking it down & remaking it...too time-consuming for me !

i rebatch if my soap is too soft or doesn't smell the way I want it to. It can be fun if you toss a bunch of stuff that you normally wouldn't because of the lye such as pretty tea leaves and dried herbs and flowers.

@wonderwoman27229 I would use many old little soap bars. Why would you - as you noticed - remake the soap you just made? haha
