I document the process of making my first batch of soap from home using only two oils, coconut and olive oil.
Since the filming of this video, I have perfected the measurements:
453g Coconut Oil,
453g Olive Oil,
137g Sodium Hydroxide,
344 Distilled Water, (Rainwater works too),
1 once Lavender Oil. You can choose how strong you want the fragrance. By calculating using a soap fragrance calculator. Light scent (1.7oz) 41g, Medium (2.20) 62g, Strong (2.94) 82g.
I recommend you use a soap calculator online to make sure your measurements are correct.
I'm not 100% sure why my soap wasn't hard enough to cut after just 24 hours. It could be a few things, The Sodium Hydroxide container lid wasn't secured well when I received it so I'm assuming it could have absorbed moisture and seeing as I didn't use an electronic scales my measures could be off a little. Either way the soap has hardened up well. We'll see how the next batches go with the right tools.

That drill with the credit-card taped at the end made my day! So, that's how a handyman makes great soap! He reminded me of my twin brother...improvisation and simplicity!

@ninaboats7098 2 года назад

I love the fact that your video is real... And with what you already have at home... You can make your first barge of soap....

You Trial and error is greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing.

I'm making some with olive oil, baking soda & coconut butter for Fathers Day in the nursery, currently sweating over it setting 😅 smells good but I only mixed it with a spoon & used a yoghurt pot as a mould so when we do it properly I think we'll be ok as mine currently has mostly set between fridge & freezer

@miguelsalami 4 года назад

This was almost as good as watching a cooking show. Nice Work man! BTW you need to recruit sum of these guys asking about the boat & put them to work on it. Doubt they could handle working on a wood boat though.

@rabiaaslam3186 3 года назад

You make life interesting thanks

@lynneburroughs1599 11 месяцев назад

I think it took longer cuz you didn't mix it enough, bring to full trace. I have never seen lye water added after 5 minutes, usually it's cooled 100 to 110 degrees, that may play a role in it.

@karincusick187 Месяц назад

I agree. Lye was too hot. Unless you don't melt the coconut oil.

@JuanJose-ku3ne 3 года назад

Thanks

@vastinkelter1393 2 года назад

INice video - but I can easily spot that you didn't mix it well enough. The mixture when poured was waaay too liquidy...

@jtuck49 7 месяцев назад

This is probably a silly question, but does it lather?

@LakesideProductions 7 месяцев назад

Yes very well

@mohamedchaher4407 2 года назад

pour moi je ne sais pas comment sa fait le savon en fabrication avec les ingrédients, merci beaucoup pour la vidéo

@MattBlytheTheOne 3 года назад

Caustic soda is caustic, right? Is that good for your skin? I read somewhere that you can use baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) ??

@Donte_Mac 3 года назад

most of the recipe ive seen use baking soda , even by companies that mass produce it.

@savoirfaire8979 3 года назад

*No longer caustic after the chemical reaction.*

@LakesideProductions 3 года назад

Yes you can make soap using baking soda (NaHCO3) it's a mild alkali although it's not as efficient as NaOH (Caustic Soda aka Sodium Hydroxide) during this process you have to heat the mixture to encourage the saponification process and this will create Carbon dioxide (Co2) You have to be careful not to cause a volcano reaction. But you need a lye solution, before sodium hydroxide was readily available people used to create it themselves using ashes and lime. Sodium Hydroxide is totally safe to use, after the chemical curing stage and allowing to dry for three weeks any sodium hydroxide that has been used has long dissipated. I was worried at first before reading more into it, now ever since I've published this video I've continued to make my own soap using caustic soda which I use myself and give some to friends and family.

@mariahensch8163 11 месяцев назад

Can I ask a question? If you need a mask face protector gloves etc when using caustic soda what makes you think its safe to put all over your body? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

@LakesideProductions 11 месяцев назад

If you've watched Fight Club you'll know how harmful Sodium Hydroxide is to our skin in it's raw form but once mixed with oils/fats and having gone through the saponification process it is harmless. It is necessary to create unified bars of soap. You could even use the soap after 24 hours of curing but we tend to wait about three weeks for the soap to harden fully. Lye has been used in soap production for over 4 thousand years.

@LakesideProductions 11 месяцев назад

I have made many batches since this video and neither myself or others have any issues using the soaps on our bodies. Hopefully my comment has helped you.

@geosar5470 2 года назад

Your male thinking went super manly ...who needs exact measurments ? Classic dude right there!

@LakesideProductions 2 года назад

In never mentioned the exact measurements in the video but I have listed them in the video description. Thanks for watching.

@jerrellslay9214 Год назад

Gow much did you superfat it?

@happycustomer3448 Год назад

You know jow to improvise

@jakec5618 Год назад

Just curious about something. Instead of a base (NaOH), can an acid be used instead to saponify?

@ELCADAROSA 5 месяцев назад

(Nearly four years later) How was the soap?

@LakesideProductions 5 месяцев назад

Fantastic. I've been a good few more batches since.

@gentletouchpodcast9095 3 месяца назад

love this , are you Irish ?

@LakesideProductions 3 месяца назад

Thanks. Yes I am

@jamiematthews9293 2 года назад

Would this recipe work for a 2 lb soap mould? Cant tell but that seems to be about the size mould you used.

@LakesideProductions Год назад

That's about right. I made by box to match the store bought soap box dimensions.

@darkb4light06 3 года назад

What is caustic soda?? What happens if it gets left out? I just want to use coconut oil and olive oil

@paulsmythe7620 3 года назад

Caustic soda is Sodium Hydroxide. You can buy it at most hardware stores and it can be also used to unclog a stopped up drain. Sodium hydroxide combines with the oils in a process called saponification. When that process completes all of the sodium hydroxide should be used up so you have to make sure to use enough oil to use all of it. If it's not all used up the soap could burn your skin. There are soap calculators available online which will tell you how much of each ingredient to use. Here's a link to one I use. www.soapcalc.net/calc/soapcalcwp.asp

@bainorkasan1078 Год назад

Hi can I get the recipe please 😊

@LakesideProductions Год назад

I have since perfected the recipe. These are the measures I use each time. 453g Coconut Oil, 453g Olive Oil, 137g Sodium Hydroxide, 344 Distilled Water, (Rain water works too), 1 once Lavender Oil. You can choose how strong you want the frangrance. By calculation using a soap fragrance calculator. Light scent (1.7oz) 41g, Medium (2.20) 62g, Strong (2.94) 82g.

@vinky928 Год назад

Essential oil brand??

@LakesideProductions Год назад

I don't recall what brand I used. But any one will suffice. Just make sure it is 100%

@lizzylz4485 3 года назад

@erniiie17xZ 3 года назад

Does it leaves the skin feeling soft.?

@LakesideProductions 3 года назад

Yes it's a nice smooth soap which lathers well and leaves your skin soft

@erniiie17xZ 3 года назад

Thanks I need that .

@NaveenKumar-mi4zj 2 года назад

After how many days can we use this soap?

@LakesideProductions Год назад

@@NaveenKumar-mi4zj After 4 weeks you can guarantee your soap is safe to use. You also need to wait 4 weeks so your soap has hardened and will last a longer duration of time.
