The Magic Ingredient to Unmold Your Soap Faster! | Bramble Berry

One of the hardest parts of making soap is waiting to unmold it! Luckily, there is an easy way to speed that process up - sodium lactate.
Derived from the natural fermentation of sugars found in corn and beets, sodium lactate is the sodium salt of lactic acid. It's commonly used in food products as a preservative.
The main benefit is that it helps soap harden more quickly, which means you can unmold it more quickly. And because the bars are harder, they tend to last longer in the shower.
The usage rate is 1 teaspoon of sodium lactate per pound of oils. More than that can result in a brittle and crumbly batch. The best part is it it doesn't speed up trace too much, so you have plenty of time to work.

From your videos I learned about using it in cp, feels like the camera don’t quite demonstrate the enormous difference it makes and feels like 😊 thank you so very much for taking the time to go more in depth on the subject of a single ingredient, it’s much appreciated, 🙏 from Montreal, Canada xx

I use 3% added to my oils in every single batch. Mainly because for years I used the heat transfer method so lye water too hot to add it to. I won’t soap without it! ❤

When i first made soap i didnt know about SL so i had to wait several days for an incredibly soft loaf. Now, even if I forget, I add it to which ever phase I've got going it still works great! I can't do without it and it cures harder and faster too!

I’m a fan of sodium lactate🎉

@jessicabatson8135 23 дня назад

I make HP soaps and I do use Sodium Lactate but in my lye water. I mix distilled water with silk, 1T pure cane sugar and 1T Sodium Lactate - mix then I add my lye and continue to mix. This is for a 3# loaf of soap.

@rosieeder5512 24 дня назад

I use it by weight. So if it’s a small batch I only use it at 1-1.5 % of my oils. For my bigger batches I use it to 3%. When I am using my master batched lye I add it right after I pour my lye mixture in my water pitcher. When using fresh lye I add it once my lye has cooled. Sometimes I forget and add it straight into my soap and mix really well😊

@WoodlandApothecary 22 дня назад

I always add it to my oils and not my lye water. Is there any concerns with doing that? 1 tsp per pounds of oils. No issues.

@bramble-berry 21 день назад

That should be totally fine too :)

@TessieDobey 27 дней назад

I don't make soap but I use sodium lactate in most of my skincare products; moisturizers, serums, and foot creams.

@Christinitamb 26 дней назад

Any reason or ingredients added to my soap that would make me not want to use sodium lactate?

@bramble-berry 22 дня назад

Sodium lactate behaves well in nearly all cold process recipes :)

@vernidabrown4237 26 дней назад

I put my sodium lactate in my lye water when it cools

@@bramble-berry Thank you So much 🌺

@jocellereyesngo6045 26 дней назад

hello what's the difference if you add it in your oils instead of adding it to your lye water solution?

@nancykelly9712 26 дней назад

Nothing, you can add it to which ever phase, it will still work fine.

@kasie680 27 дней назад

I just pour it into cooled lye, I don’t measure it anymore

@louisdepointedulac3072 27 дней назад

I unmould in 3-4 hours without sodium lactate. Just water discount and 0.5% salt dissolved in the water before adding lye.

@Nashmast 27 дней назад

6-7 days to unmold in the old days?? That’s a new one. Never knew soap to take longer than 36 hours max. Regardless, sodium lactate is good stuff and I presently use brambleberry’s regularly in most of my soaps.

@louisdepointedulac3072 27 дней назад

They use a lot of water in their recipes.
