[brynpuppy]

Here are the ingredients/measurements that I've tried, with successful results:

RBD Coconut oil (87.5 ml)

Glycerin (25.0 ml)

Potassium hydroxide (18.3 g)

distilled water (240.0 ml)

if you're interested in making Bath Bombs...Coastal Scents has a great video & recipe.

[dottietobias]

and can you use it has dish soap?

[Stinkydancersoaps]

@dottietobias Loads of people just do water and 100% Coconut Oil for Dish soap.

[dottietobias]

where can you buy phenol drops if you don't mind me asking?

[Stinkydancersoaps]

@dottietobias Lotioncrafter sells them.

[EsaRubiaEsBoricana]

can i use pure vegetable glycerin to make soap by itself with teatreeoil or do i need that other stuff you used?

[Stinkydancersoaps]

Wow- thanks so much! It's awesome- I can't believe how many hours I have spent slaving over liquid soap and this is amazing! Thank you for sharing it- Happy New Year! :)

[dottietobias]

@Stinkydancersoaps i feel the same and mine never really turns out right ,,but i am a new soaper that's my excuse lol!!!

[dottietobias]

@Stinkydancersoaps---I've tried and tried to make liquid soap for dish soap it never turns out for me ,wanted to make dish soap,mine always turns out creamy linke lotion.Going to have to try this,but i am a new soaper that's always my excuse lol

[Stinkydancersoaps]

@dottietobias I'm not new and I still use the excuse- it lasts for years. LOL! If it's creamy- it could be the oils your using or if your using a superfat it's too high. Try 100% Coconut Oil with no superfat- you will have to neutralize going this route though.

[VICKIET444]

This is a fabulous method! I have now tried it with 3 different recipes---ah, yes, each of the batches saponify and look very different. And, I sub the glycerin for water both ways (fl oz vs oz)...the weight should be the correct way--both saponified but the paste was thick when I used oz per oz measurement of glycerin for water. And I diluted both ways (hot paste vs cool paste). Both ways worked.

[kbsmb]

Could you post the exact measurements for the recipie, please? Thanks :)

[dottietobias]

@kbsmb ---please i would like the measurements also my give me something new to try today ..Already making bath bambs but i'm excited to try this..

[angelwings2ltd]

Is this to be used as a Shampoo? Body Wash? or what?

How are the bubbles?

[angelwings2ltd]

Wow!! That is the coolest thing I have ever seen in soap making! LOL

I am going to say that it is the heat of all the liquids combined that make it trace so quickly, and the added setting time (about an hour) makes it finish and saponify. . .

IS NOW when you add the water to dilute it for use? Also-- WHere can I get a copy of the recipe? I would love to try this! Can you use any recipe and just sub. the Glycerin for the water?

[VICKIET444]

I substitutated the glycerin for the water with the KOH by fluid ounces, no mention was made as to whether to do it this way or by the weight of each (glycerin weighs much more than water), I ended up with a taffy-like paste as the soap cooled. I am in the process of diluting with the final water & I don't know what I;m going to end up with--it's been 4 hours & its still not completely combined. should you dilute before the paste cools & thickens? did I wait too long to dilute? thank you

[misslya1411]

I tried your method for liquid soap, and I love it!

It's very easy, but the results are really different from a recipe to another.

I made one with mango butter, about 5%, and it's really thick.

The batches are curing now ;)

Thank you for sharing <3

[dottietobias]

@misslya1411 by any chance can i get the measurements in oz's so i can try it please

[misslya1411]

OMG!!!! It's crazy!!!! Can't believe it!!!! Wh;en I thing about all the hours I spent watching over my soap to reach trace and cook it...ToT

THANK YOU, i'll try it right NOW! ^^

[TheSmudge4321]

After you have stick blended do you just leave it to sit before retesting or has it cooked further in a crock pot? Thanks

[brynpuppy]

Wow! Looks really neat! Would love to try it. Can you email me the recipe with quantities of glycerin and potassium hydroxide? brysonvinetta@hotmail.com



[dottietobias]

@brynpuppy ----me too please if you can just inbox me it ,i would love to try it

[dottietobias]

@brynpuppy was wondering if she emailed you the measurements i really want to try this if she did do you mind emailing them to me

[celitagallardo]

I just tried it but made a mess, can somebody help me. I don't really know what went wrong it got really hard, and it's been 5 hours and Phenolphthalein keep making it pink. Can I get the exact recipe to see what I did wrong? Thank you

[celitagallardo]

Hi! I'm just amazed. Is the glycerin what accelerates the process? What is the smallest batch size you can make? I just can't believe my eyes! Thank you so much for sharing.

[MrFarmacie]

can u add me???really need to know what to buy for starting..he.he

[MrFarmacie]

great!can u add my email.mirasutra@yahoo.com.

need to know more detail about recepy

[dazygyrl05]

no, as the video shows, the glycerin must be heated, quite high, to dissolve the lye. i don't take temps, i just add the lye and glycerin to the hot oils.

[heedthecat]

That is fantastic! I am definitely going to make some! Question, though - I normally do room temp cold process soap, how warm do I need to have the lye and oils before I mix? Also, does the lye+glycerin reaction create heat like lye+water does? If I can make room temp liquid soap, I know what folks are getting for christmas!

[dazygyrl05]

i don't let mine cure before using it. phenol just helps you to know when all the free lye is gone. yes, it can be used for the face. glad the video was helpful! :)

[SunstarSage]

Thank you for so generously sharing your technique! I've wanted to make liquid soap but I was intimidated by the process. I will have to try your way. I'd also like to know if you have to let it cure several weeks. Do you have to use phenol?

Thanks again. Also, I hope your Braun stays "healthy" and never dies on you. :)

[MrFarmacie]

can use for face?

[dazygyrl05]

@MrFarmacie sure you can...just formulate it like you would formulate a bar of soap for the face.

[dottietobias]

@dazygyrl05 -- i only been soaping for 5 months now can you please give me the measurements so i can try this ..I really only have one recipe i go by scared to try the rest unless i have measurements...

[changingmyself]

Do you have to let this cure like CP soap?

[dazygyrl05]

@changingmyself i don't cure it, but some people do....it's up to you, really.

[dazygyrl05]

generally you don't take a water discount with liquid soap. always best to use the full amount.

barbara...i start with 1 part paste to 0.75 part water. you can always add more water, but it's a pain to thicken up if you added too much.

[Barbaraal1]

After cooking what amount of water do you use to dilute this for instance 10-13 ouncers per lb of paste? Thanks Barbara AL

[49Rae]

Great tut! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. What water discount die you use and SF?

Thanks!

Rae

[soapysuessoapshoppe]

Oh my goodness! This is awesome! stoneheart was right about this, I am going ballistic! I love liquid soap but it takes so long to make, that I simply stopped making it. Looks like I'll be making some very soon!  Thanks for the video

[stoneheartfarm]
