Super Laundry Sauce Recipe and Instructions! (Concentrated) 

Make it easier on yourself and use the food processor to grate your bar of soap, do several at a time, store in sandwich bags already grated and ready for when you want to make up a batch. Also buy a used bread machine and put the water and grated soap in on the dough cycle and that works very well then continue on. I do not dilute my mixture and just add half of the amount usually called for in my washers.. I paid five dollars for my bread machine I use just for making laundry soap. I have been making my own for many, many years. I am 82. Sue in Central Indiana

Great recipe! Thanks for sharing with us. Another perk is your washer stays super clean with no build up. Commercial laundry soap is so bad for gunking up the machine. Love this, works marvelous!! The sauce is the Boss!🤵🏻😂

This is the first recipe I have found that I don't have to worry about making and storing more than I want. This was a great idea. Thank you for posting!

I love your recipe. I previously made 10 gallons of the DIY laundry detergent and it's so difficult for me to keep shaking a large container, because it separates. Your recipe is so much better. I wish I found you earlier. Thanks.

I like the liquid formula best. I wash clothes in cold water and dry formulas don't dissolve all that great, so I love this! Thanks for sharing!

It’s amazing how much better this is than the most expensive commercial detergent.

If you will not heat the grated Fels Naptha on the stove (only the water), THEN continue to heat the soap & water, it will dissolve much faster. Heating the grated soap makes it melt, causing it to clump, which takes longer to dissolve in the water. This way is SOOOO much better than making 10 gallons that you have to store (or give away). 😀👍

Just a tip, after I blend the dry soap into a powder I add a cpl tablespoons of borax then blend again while adding 2 cups of boiling water. It melts it and blends it into a cream so you can add that to the boiling water and it won't clump up.

I really want to thank you for making this video. I had to make this for Environmental Science class but it turned out gritty and separated. I just did it for class to do something for a portfolio, but you inspired me to fix it and actually use it. I’m allergic to everything that I have tried from the store, even Dreft. I can’t wait to try this and see if I can finally not itch in my clothes. Great video! Thank you!

I make this in dry form and I add Purex fresh spring waters laundry enhancer to my recipe. I add 1/2 scoop oxyclean separate. Using the Purex crystals works quite well. Using the dry form, I take my tbsp full and I dissolve in a cup before adding to my washer. I do have the largest washer available, so I will use 2 tbsp on the big loads. The new washers are 3x's bigger then what they use to be and the lid locks as soon as the load starts. I use this recipe because it works the best of all the laundry detergents out there. This gets my clothes clean and I have to say I do love the Purex Spring fresh crystals. I've been washing my clothes this way for quite a while now and I wouldn't ever use anything else. I have 5 extra fels naphtha bars and 2 boxes each of the washing soda, the borax on hand and 2 big bottles of Purex laundry enhancer. It will be a while before I run out. I store mine in an ice cream pail covered with the cup on top.

This is a great video....I make mine with laundry bars I make myself, or with Zote or Fels if Im waiting on soap to cure. i just wanted to say, blenders are pretty cheap now. so please if you use a blender to make this, forget about using it for anything besides soaps. particles from the soaps you cant easily see can make you terribly ill. just grab another blender from walmart, target, amazon, even try Goodwill if you wanna be super budget mindful.🌹

I love Fels Naptha. My mother used it in her wringer washer. I can see the bar of soap and a paring knife along side it lol I make homemade laundry detergent with Fels but I really like this concentrated idea and the fact that it's whipped. Can't wait to try it ..which goes to show you how exciting my life is lol Is there something wrong with people who actually enjoy making their own cleaning products? I like the money I save.:o)

Been making laundry soap for a while now and loving it . But hating the half empty container for shaking or stirring . Your directions are so clear your execution on point. So tomorrow I'm making my first batch of you supper washing sauce thank you so much . I am anxiously awaiting your next 💜

I am going to try this. I make a full years worth of the powder laundry soap. Thank you for sharing.

I made this today, I can't wait to share my experience with you.

Just made this and double the recipe. Came out perfectly. Thank you very much for sharing. Now going to do the laundry. 😀

Thanks for sharing this! This is my favorite recipe! I have made this with the white zote as well. I found Zote flakes at Walmart. Best day ever lol. I only problem I have now is I shared with family and they ask me to make it. Haha love it :)

I like your method also. It is just me and I don't have space for storing gallons of soap. wonderful!! Thanks.

I love that you put your recipe underneath so we can have it for later thank you so much awesome and amazing thank you for sharing wow easy

I make this in powder form. It works fabulously and is amazing soap! I only use fels naphtha when making this!!!! I have enough fels naphtha to last me 2 years! I add oxiclean to my batch, which really makes it clean a ton better and I only use a tbsp per load. :). I also add purex crystals in my batch and it still works amazing.😍 It's the best soap ever! Fels naphtha smells amazing

Looks like a good recipe

Amazing, I like your finished product the best. I can't wait to make it.

it seems to me that more water can be added in the pot then mixture transferred to the large plastic container, cover, let it sit and use a stick blender to finish it off

I like it and I will try this recipe and thank you for sharing

I have made this many times over. I love it and use it cleaning my furniture, just use a soft bristle brush and a damp cloth, I use it cleaning my leather seats in my Tahoe, for my laundry and so on. I also make it up for family, they all use it in their cars and cleaning their couches and chairs. Thanks for the recipe.

I made it and its super wonderful, great scent , scent actually fades during washing, it is great. I covered it with a film of wax paper after pouring just a little water on top so it wont harden in the bucket

Sauce is what you pour over food....soap is what you pour over clothes! But I make my own laundry soap also. I use sunlight laundry bar soap instead...great lemony smell!

Hey dear thanks for the beautiful recipe. In my country washing soda and borax are too expensive. Can I just use soap to make the sauce

This is the second video like this that I have seen today. Where did this come from? In a year of watching videos, today is the first time I've seen this recipe. Before I forget, be sure to get a rubber spatula so you can get all of that soap out of the 2 jars. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although I wondered where in the world you got this recipe from. I would ha e never thoughtof it!

Plus, you don't get all the chemicals and perfumes that are in the store brands.

I LOVE this stuff. Thank you for the video. I used it to clean a carpet with some pet stains. I can not believe what came out with the steam cleaner and the room smells wonderful.

This one I’ll make!

Thank you for answering so quickly. I did a test run in my washer and at the end of the cycle big chunks were still there

I place the fells naphtha bar in the microwave for a few seconds to expand it and then hand grate and it makes grating it up super easy and super fast.

Love the video! I'm gonna try this! Thanks for sharing!!!

Can I use Zote instead or Dr. Bronner's castile soap bar..

Thanks Valarie. Your comments about following the receipe are the most helpful as you describe other things that can go wrong when you don't.

after time it thickens up, but still scoopable, why leave it to stand and separate when youre going to whip it together again?

To my understanding it may thicken up a bit as it sits after you blend it?

What would the ratio of ingredients be if you use a 14.1 oz. bar of Zote? I used the recipe the way you made it and it works great, but with five kids I run out in two weeks maybe three and I want to make a bigger batch using the bigger Zote bar. Thank you for this recipe to help parents and folks to make our money stretch farther.

I Created this recipe and it was taken directly from my site here: www.budget101.com/content.php?r=3993 All of the questions asked can be answered in our FAQ file in the article.

This is a recipe I can’t wait To try! Thanks for Sharing!!!

So I just got this really devious thought of replacing someone's cheddar with the grated Naptha and also replacing their mayo with the finished product. I know, I'm going to hell.

Wow Thx God Bless You

Finally, now when my laundry sauce is stolen, I can make my own!

I think I'm going to try this. I used to use Gain laundry and softener but after making my own with washing soda, borax and soda I accidently put in some Gain softener in a load and broke out in a whole body rash and welts. Horrible, I itched from a Sun, Mon, Tues and Wed that night I went to bed and Thur am completely gone, not one itch. I has told a friend and I think she did some healing on me. This is an intense process but looks like it would be great to use.

just a quick question, I am just one person in the house, I don't want to make that much cause I will last forever. Can I make 1/4 of everything instead?

This stuff is amazing

Can we please be friends???? I love this idea. I am allergic to everything and I have been making my own soap for sometime now and I really like this idea.

You can buy Zote flakes at walmart

Can't wait to try this. Great video.

Awesome!! Great soap! good instructions!

Does this ever separate for you? I find that it becomes thick and chunky instead of staying creamy (household of 7!) so I quit making it....

I have made the 5 gallon liquid once, lasted over 6 months. I am ready to make another batch, but noticed the laundry soaps (Fels and Zote) are now in different smaller sizes. What size was your bar? Seems everyone says a bar...not ozs. Thanks?

will your moms laundry sauce take out daddys baby gravy off the sheets? BAM!! im funny

I’m allergic to Fels Naptha. Can I use Ivory soap?

So you can’t add oxy clean or say biz to the borax and washing soda mix and add it all to the fels on the stove for an extra whitening boost?? Just curious bcuz I’m a firm believer in my oxy clean or biz I use oxy clean one week then I’ll use biz the next I like to alternate between the two! I’ve done my laundry like this so long I can notice immediately when neither is used oxy clean and or biz is a game changer in keeping your clothes bright and your whites stay white like the day you bought them!!!! Especially on socks!! My husbands socks and clothes get really dirty in his line of work and I’m here to tell you doesn’t matter the stain or how dirty his socks get he can come home with socks that look like he’s been jumping in mudd puddles all day FYI he loves his job we own a construction company and also a painting company and he will a lot of times work in the rain in reason they get really dirty sometimes. and most would think these need to hit the trash no way these are coming clean!! Psst one wash no messy bleach just oxy or biz with my already homemade laundry powder and they come out of the wash like I just bought them sparkling whites and bright colors I wash his clothes separately so on his load of works clothes and socks I do add more than 2 table spoons like homemade powder calls for I use half a cup of homemade powder and half cup oxy or biz sometimes I get alittle extra and add oxy and biz making it a full cup of oxy biz mix when it’s really needed and I’m telling y’all once you really start adding oxy or biz to your laundry routine you will have to have it lol 😂 it’s an addiction I’ve seen many videos of people saying the off brand oxy works the same absolutely not tried it and the husband says did you change something in my laundry my clothes are starting to have a smell and my socks are starting to look slightly dirty 😂😂 so he caught me using the off brand from dollar tree!! Now the awesome orange oxy does work really good on my clothes and kids but it’s not for really dirty work clothing!! After a week or so of using oxy orange on work clothes you can slowly watch the socks become dingy and clothes start looking dull!!! And a musky smell will build up!!! I had to re wash all his work clothes but with one wash adding half cup of my homemade laundry powder and full cup of oxy biz mix all into the drum do not add all that powder mix to your tray throw in the bottom of the drum in cold or hot water both work fine you’ll see all the nasty that built up in just one week how crazy is that water was a dark brown and you could literally see the nasty film that had built up in just a week 🤮🤮 I had to use who can guess oxy clean 1 full cup and 1 full cup of pure baking soda mix and set my washer to clean mode FYI it also cleans your machine and Deodorized it it’s really a multi use product!!! Ever cleaned your toilet and tubs with the oxy and pure baking soda half and half making a full cup but make sure to mix it together and man does it do the job I sprinkle it in the toilet and tubs and sinks let sit 10 minutes then wipe tub an sinks down and swish the toilet with your toilet brush rinse and your bathroom will smell so fresh an clean and your tub an sinks and toilet will shine and if you have white sinks and tubs they will look brand new again!! I have so many different cleaning tips with just oxy and baking soda you’ll never need to buy cleaner all the time! Saves money as well don’t get me started in tile floors and your grout another tip use same mix but make a past for your grout and oh my Lort you will thank me later!! Okay I’m done preaching about the many uses of oxy or biz!!! 😂 and baking soda mix but I wanted to share bcuz it’s one hell of a cleaner I’ve yet to find anything close to how well that mix cleans and freshens your house!!! But just one more really important part of cleaning is your mattress you can’t wash them right?! Well tip for that sprinkle pure baking soda the one on the laundry isle all over all your striped beds meaning no bedding just mattresses this can be done on any style mattress!!! Sprinkle a good amount all over the mattress let sit for 35 minutes to an hour I recommend the full hour bcuz it’s gonna pull any Oder and dirt to the surface of your mattress so waiting the full hour is best take your vacuum then and use attachment and vacuum all the baking soda up along with dirt dust that has settled into the beds if your mattress is older it’s probably never been done and you’ll see the dirt, dust on the surface you will be shocked 😳 and alittle grossed out knowing you’ve been sleeping on top of that you may even smell a musky scent while vacuuming all the baking soda up it’s normal you just pulled all the Oder you never knew was there to the surface of your mattress don’t worry once all baking soda is completely vacuumed up your mattress will smell fresh afterwards!!! Baking soda on laundry isle is 2 bucks for a large box more bang for your buck I forgot to add when Deodorizing your mattress or mattresses go ahead and grab 2 boxes 4 bucks total for over 4 pounds of baking soda depending on size of your bed or beds king use enough to cover entire bed I use about 2 cups full!!! Make sure bed is lightly dusted all over even corners and edges you don’t wanna put a thick layer just enough to cover the bed you can sprinkle bed and rub the baking soda making sure entire bed is lightly dusted so if needed you can also repeat if an oder is still present after vacuum repeat as many times as necessary it will not discolor your mattress I do this to all the beds in the house at least every 3 months and I have a Serta 5,000 dollar Mattress had my new bed about 5 months and did this trick and I was surprised being it was still new that I had dust and dirt coming up that I couldn’t see on the bed but cleaning my vacuum afterwards that was pre cleaned before I started!!!! Yep as you can see I’m a clean freak 😂 but I can’t do nasty knowing your bed has dirt and dust and sometimes older beds will get that old smell that you don’t notice bcuz your nose has become blind to it even worse when you have a ceiling fan above just blowing it into your bedding even if you keep the fan clean there’s still particles in the air settling somewhere??! on your bed just like your dressers what do you wipe off the top of your vanity or dressers when you dust??! Same thing that’s down in your mattress happy cleaning hope my tips help!!!

Wow, Thank you for sharing this. Money saver!!!!!

Thank you so much for sharing your laundry detergent recipe. I just stumbled onto your video. I also read the comments and learned a lot of awesome tips! I can't wait to make some and give it a try!! 👏👍🤗💖❣🙋‍♀️

Can you use ANY bar soap

Hi will the detergent stay creamy thanks for the video

Mam I m from Pakistan. It’s not easy to get Fels naphtha from Pakistan. So can I use laundry soap for this recipe?and how much time it can sustain in room temperature

Or you could do what most Cooks do put your hot water to Boiling before you start your grading of all that soap cuz by the time you get done grading all that stuff your hot water should be to boil

This stuff is amazing!

I made it and I tried it. Great recipe

I lOVE THIS RECIPE I DID IT AND IT TURN OUT GREAT! BUT I HAVE A QUESTION.. WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE ? IS MY BIG CONSOURNE !! . HUGS FROM ARGENTINA!

If making this to sell how much would you charge

Hi can i add oxy cleaning and fabric softener because i have a lots of then

I love the Idea of this recipe because I live in a small apartment. I have a few questions. What size are your mason jars. Does it separate after a while. Is it good in apartment washers.

wow..love this.. i want to do it..

Does this dissolve in cold water?

Does this melt or stay whipped ? How long ?

Awesome video! Thank you so much!

It is for white or colored laundry ? Thank you ! 😘

I have used essential oils in mine and it did not ruin the recipe.

Regular mouth jars or wide mouth jars to use for blender??

I will be using zote or kirks castille soap so should I put in the came amount of weight in soap to get the same effect as fels naptha

You can add Downey's unstoppable or other scent boosters. Just melt them in the mix before you put it in the jar. You can make it smell exactly to your liking! Thanks for the idea to transfer it to another container!

I don't have a blender. Do you think it would be okay if I didn't fine grate the soap and after the 4 hours wait time, freeze the sauce in a bowl for 10 or 15 minutes until it is softly solidified and use a hand mixer to mix it all up?

Can you write out this list so I can share it with my parents at the DayCare Center. I can't be long on this computer at work so this written out list would help me. Thank you.

How i wish to have that too, but i had a hard time to find the three major ingredients in my place.

Does it stay blended. My soap recipe separates, which makes using it a pain in the butt.

Super great btw!

great video

Great video! thank you :)

Can you substitute the borax or exclude the borax & if so will it still turn out the same ?

I dont have a blender...can i use a hand held electric mixer?

Does it matter if one has slightly more than the other, as you're tipping them into a container at the end anyway

There is also a dry ingredients soap powder you can make, just as good.

That grated cheese looked tasty!

will the mix go moldy after a while?

Clean has no scent

Oh yes and you can put your rubber gasket UNDER THE BLADE PLATE to prevent it from getting chewed up in the blender.

There's a much easier way to do this without messing up so many dishes. You can make this in regular mouth mason jars and put the blender base on the mouth of the jar. Then put on the blender and turn on to mix like beast. I let the fels-naptha sit in the jars over night to melt first.

Can you take powdered detergent, heat it up and make this whipped creamy detergent?

only laundry soap i do make is the powder laundry soap i love it.

Hello, what size bar soap is it? I purchased a 5oz

I am using my hotel soap I've collected from around the US. Will that work instead of that soap you mentioned?

Can you add scents boosters to this ? Will it affect the outcome?

I don't have a detachable blender, I can make it in mason jar but after 4 hours I can transfer the whole mixture into blender?
