I have a dedicated wooden spoon from last time I made soap, and I mixed the lye and water in a 4 cup Pyrex mixing cup from our wedding shower in 1989. The old Pyrex containers are more heat-proof than the new ones; the new ones have been reformulated so drug makers can't use them.

One thing you didn't mention, NEVER reuse any of the dishes, spatulas, spoons or stick blender for anything else. Once you make soap with it, it needs to be dedicated to strictly soap making. Also, ALWAYS, let the soap cure for at least 4 weeks before using it. It takes that long for the saponification process to work. If you use it before then, you take the risk of the Lye still being active and you could get serious burns. I used to be a soap maker and believe me, the burns from the Lye are no joke.
@yonikki
@yonikki Год назад
Actually, the saponification process takes around 2 days total (48 hours) ... I let my bars sit 4 days just to be safe though. All "curing" does is allows excess water to evaporate creating a harder bar. That process usually takes 4-6 weeks before the bar stops shrinking. Soaps are perfectly safe to use a week (or less) after un-molding. I use the end bits almost immediately since I like to test each recipe right away ... they just don't last as long. But I agree with you about the lye burns!! I live in south Florida and was wearing long gloves while making soap... I assumed my arms were sweaty from the warm weather and gloves but it turned out l mistakenly transferred untraced soap batter onto my apron and that rubbed into the end of the glove opening. The burns got worse over a 48 hour period and it was turning the oils IN my skin into soap! I had deep holes on the forearms that I had to wrap in bandages for about two weeks. I almost quit making soap because it was so painful. Now I'm extra cautious and wash my hands repeatedly during the process and shower immediately after.

Great lesson in saponification. Thank you for telling everyone to be very careful with the Lye. It is NaOH (sodium hydroxide) and is a strong base, just like hydrochloride acid is a strong acid. Both can give severe burns. Safety glasses must be worn when working with lye. It has a pH of 10 on the pH scale. 7 is neutral. It sounds like 10 isn’t much away from neutral but it is (exponentially). Please be careful as he suggested.

Hi AP Fam… Rudy did an awesome job! As a diaper, I have a couple of things to suggest that might make things a little easier. If you freeze your water into small ice cubes , it will take the fumes of the lye down a lot. It will also stay closer to room temperature. Your oil and lye-water are better to mix around the same temperature. I personally don’t use sodium lactate so if you don’t have it, don’t sweat it. Your soap will still be great! If you want to have some botanicals but don’t want the little bits in your soap you can infuse the oil ahead of time and strain out the botanicals and it will still have the properties in the soap. I make a gardeners soap that I infuse calendula and comfrey in my olive and safflower oil, then I strain out the plant material and use that in my soap making. Any essential oils that you like, you can use in your soap. Just remember things like cinnamon if used heavily can have a burning sensation. Happy Soaping all! 😊

There's no such thing as "lye" soap. All soap is made with lye (NaOH) otherwise it's not soap. During the saponification process the lye water and oils/butters transform completely into soap as long as your measurements are precise. I always superfat my soaps to make certain all the lye (water) is used up during the process, which takes about 4 days to complete. There should be absolutely NO lye in the final bar and I do a zap test and pH test to confirm safety. I use all my soap bars on myself and my young children - I just use gentle oils and butters for more conditioning properties and less dryness (coconut oil is very drying). Hope that clears up and misunderstanding about lye bars. 😊 You definitely don't want to wash with lye! lol

Two of my favorite additives are: 1-2 Tbsp poppy seeds (after trace), makes a great scrubby soap for winter dry skin Or: 1/2 Cup of Oatmeal, (added in the oils before lye). Makes a nice skin soothing soap. Trace is generally described as "like cake batter" thickness. The dark center is caused by "gel phase", the center got warm during curing. Don't worry if it's still there 6-8 wks later on, it's not raw soap. I use a wire cheese cutter to cut mine.

I forgot to add, you could have also told people how to make the Lye - easy. Take an old non-reactive bucket and punch a few holes in the bottom, center, and fill halfway with wood ashes. Put a larger non reactive container set directly under the top bucket. Fill top bucket with water, it will seep down through the ashes and what you have is lye water - handle carefully. You can let evaporated to make a powder or thicker solution. Best to do this outside, or in a ventilated garage. The smaller the drain holes, the slower it drips and the stronger it will be.

Soap is on my calendar for next month! You can use quart and half gallon milk cartons for molds until you get nicer ones or any silicone bread or cake pans. You can also cut store bought soap in 2-4 pieces so they last longer or to barter.

You do not know how hard it is to search for this information. (Maybe its just me) but I have spent several Months trying to get the specific raitios and temps for this type of soap. I have made lots of batches that never solidified and this is a Godsend, thank you so much!

Thank you Rudy.. I've made molds before but out of pre-made soap from hobby lobby. After reading A. Americans books he mentions it but I never got around to getting the exact ingredients.. I made a list going to order it.. I will definitely need something to earn money or barter since my job is cleaning for rich people something tells me I won't be doing that.. Lol. Which is fine. I make good money which has allowed me to prepare but I'm over the spoiled entitled attitudes... God bless you!

The reason I was always told (to add the lye to the water) was to avoid splashing the mixture onto yourself or anything else.
@ruthbloink9095
@ruthbloink9095 Год назад
I have made quite a bit of soap. I believe the reason you don't add the water to the lye is because you can have an uncontrolled reaction that will be very dangerous and cause an explosion. I taught my daughter and grandkids to kind of sing a song, lye in the water, and think about swimming and laying on your back in the water. It sounds kind of crazy if you try to sing water in the lye.
@debi359

Yes, as Ruth said, its the potential chemical reaction. Chem class told us, always add acid to water. 😁

You will cause a ‘volcanic eruption’ if you add water to the lye. Water 1st; Lye 2nd. This is a serious safety issue. Don’t do it wrong! 🙏

Hello Rudy, glad to catch up with you a bit. I used to make soap to sell but shipping is just too expensive these days. You have a very good and simple soap. It's good to know how to make soap. I have lots made ahead. Some even decorative and some with fragrance. It makes great gifts for family and friends although I think I'm soaping them out for the holidays lol Your awesome Rudy and are a great soapmaker! This is a skill everyone should know. Even if just buying glycerin to melt and add fragrance and botanicals. Those end pieces cut up are great for putting in an empty hand soap bottle and let it sit for one's homemade hand soap. A little runny but works great. Thanks for sharing, Rudy. Have a wonderful Easter!

I made soap with used cooking oil from a restaurant and added Borax and Baking Soda for dish washing and it became very clean and cut the grease. I did ground up the soap to powder to cut down on waste and faster dissolving in the water. If you have land you can make your own essential oils by growing Lavender or other kinds of greens.
@Medicgal
@Medicgal Год назад
If you change the oils you use, you need to run everything through a lye calculator. When you change oils, it changes the amount of lye you need. Soap will turn out lye heavy or it may not have enough lye and soap will not harden. I urge all that are wanting to learn to make soap to check out some additional resources that are more in depth. This video gives the very basics but there is a lot more to it than what he shows here.
