I know it’s been years since you made this video. But I’m SOOOO thankful I found it! Todays first time soap making and afterwards I was thinking “oh no! How do I clean this stuff”. Thank You for sharing

@angelacorner6629 5 лет назад

Thank you Elly, many soap videos don't even show this, this is most helpful for I am a beginner,I was really hoping someone will finally show this, good on you Elly for being the first

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 5 лет назад

Thank you Angela, I thought the same thing! This trick was a breakthrough for me when I discovered it. Makes it so much easier. Happy soaping :)

@robertlopez1913 4 года назад

I agree, as a beginner I think it is important to know what you should and shouldn't be doing from someone with experience. Thank you so much for sharing!

@emerencespringer 3 года назад

Another option is to use a a very clean towel, tea towel size, or one of your choosing based on the amount of things to clean up. Either wet or dry, and using a small section of the towel, wipe out, off, as much as you can, per item. Move to a clean section of the towel and continue to each piece. You can set the dishes and utensils etc aside to Rinse as this video suggested, but if you need your items sooner, wiping them with a towel makes the cleanup sooner. Keep the towel for the same amount of soap curation you would normally. Pin a note or keep it, stored safely near your curing Soap. When it's ready, throw it in the washer to wash towels or other household items. Depending on your recipe this might not be suitable for your clothes, because of Super fats etc that could stain clothes. But for other things that wouldn't be an issue, it's a way to save on washing powder etc. Thanks for sharing this.

@marymcandrew7667 2 года назад

@@emerencespringer Great idea, I thought to wipe my stick blender off but I like your idea of wiping everything down. I need to know what to do with the container I mixed my lye solution in and the one that had the dry caustic soda, do I rinse them at the same time in the sink? Will they hurt my pipes?

@emerencespringer 2 года назад

@@marymcandrew7667 ... If your talking about the container that you had the dry lye and it's now empty, and the container that you mix the lye and your liquid?. If that's what you mean, yes, safely Rinse those immediately, and it "shouldn't" affect your pipes, I say shouldn't because I don't know what type of pipes or plumbing system you have. Technically, lye is mainly used in drain cleaner and in those oven cleaner spray cans. The towel idea isn't mine, I'm just sharing it. Another one is to have a designated container just for lye. One to measure and One to Mix. Rinse right away, just in case. Hope you have a great day.

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 5 лет назад

That's a great idea - I never thought to add the silicone moulds to the washing. I don't have much soap, if any, left on my moulds to be honest, so I just give them a quick rinse.

Oh dear! Well your dishwasher would smell really nice I'm sure.

@rochellwatts3350 4 года назад

Thank you for that video. I was going to put away from my cooking utensils. But if I just have to clean it. I will most likely keep my plastic items for soap since I have so many silicone molds and plastic measuring cups.

@Arieh-Lael 2 месяца назад

Great information because most people would be impatient and wash right away but to me this is the smartest way 😎 Thank you! Also white vinegar will neutralize costic we used distilled white vinegar where I use to work so in theory you should be able to stick anything with lye on it in some white vinegar after using it to make it safer or if it got on your skin. Do your own research not an expert 😁

When I am making cold process soap, I just put all the utensils (except the blender) in plastic bags until the time the soap is ready (6 weeks). Then I wash them with water. That soapy water can be used for other things like washing dishes.

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 4 года назад

Very similar to my version. The soap is saponified fully after a couple of days though, so there's no need to wait longer than than if you don't want to.

Thanks for the tips! What do you do with the container you mixed your lye solution with though? And I always wondered about throwing paper towels I used to clean up surface area directly into trash

@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 5 лет назад

Hi there, I just rinse the lye solution container out with water as soon as I've poured it into the oils. That way I know there's no lye solution hanging around my kitchen that I could accidentally touch. There's no issue with putting lye solution down the drain, in fact it will help to clean it out. It's just the oily soap batter that's the problem. You don't have to worry about your paper towels either, you can just put them straight into the rubbish. As long as no children or pets are likely to go digging through it. If it's just soap batter on your paper towels this too will become soap in a day or two.
