Discover the magic of soap making with a 50% water discount! 🌟 In this video, I’m diving into uncharted waters (pun intended 😉) by experimenting with a 50% water discount in my soap recipe. Using a non-accelerating fragrance like Vanilla Bean Noel, I’m excited to see how this affects the soap’s texture and curing time.
Why should YOU try a 50% water discount in soap making? For one, it can speed up the curing process, allowing you to cut and use your soap sooner. Plus, it adds a beautiful sheen and helps eliminate soda ash, giving your soap a gorgeous finish without any extra coloring.
👩‍🔬 Join me as I walk you through my process, share my thoughts, and show you the results. Whether you’re a seasoned soap maker or just starting out, this experiment is bound to inspire you to push your creative boundaries.

When using this method all you need to do is reduce the required water amount by half. That's it. If you use soap calc do not change any of the settings for this, leave them as they are, then half the water amount yourself. This is not a 50:50 ratio! Do not confuse the two. This is just cutting the water by half.

@OlaloTaínoTarot 4 года назад

thank you for clearing that Up now I have to find out if this will work for hot process! Amazing video and your soap are lovely

By cutting the water in half how long will the cure time be now?

@monikaykataria3838 10 месяцев назад

I have doubt that why do we need to add extra water to dry out, wt happens if we make soap with only 50/50 lye/water solution without adding extra water, so that we doesnt need to dry them for 4 weeks... I think it will be ready in a week. I m just asking, can we do this? Thanks for ur reply in advance.

@prettharrington 6 лет назад

Thank you for this post. I have made 4 batches of the most beautiful soaps based on your video. The batches have had no soda ash. They all have the most brilliant luster and color, and the bars are the hardest bars I've made to date. I did notice that trace took way longer - LOL, but overall worth it. My water reduction is 23% water to the weight of oils. The key for me has been making sure the discounted water is never less than the weight of the lye. Again, thanks.

@futureprimitivesoap 6 лет назад

+Preston Harrington Hi Preston! That is so awesome! I'm loving the results as well. Some.of the best soaps I've ever made. So glad you're finding success too!

I tried the 50% water discount last night and it did the same thing. It never got thick. I poured it anyway and in 12 hours I was able to take it out the mold and it came out beautiful. No soda ash or anything and the bar was actually harder than all the other soaps I've done. It was great. We'll see if there is any difference in curing time.

I was wondering if you gel your batches? With the discount? I've just made perhaps my 9th batch and my molds are small I have been gelling half and putting have in the fridge to stop it from gelling. I find I have more Ash on the ones I don't gel but I'm super new and just learning so I'm not sure I can decide which I prefer. On my failed batches I let them to gel which caused me to even try the other way. Only both batches have came out well. I hate the wait! Being new I'm anxious to see and I am rushing to get my molds clean to make another! So I'm ready to try at a discount I feel!

@nowexit 7 лет назад

Sodium hydroxide needs to be dissolved in a liquid no less than its own weight (ie: 100g NaOH dissolved in 100g H2O but no less) so in theory you can water discount even less than 50%. My standard is 30% discount and I've found that ash has been eliminated and no more glycerine rivers. At 30% the curing time is down to 2.5/3 weeks. You responded to my comment on the last post and told me about Sensory Perfection, I should be getting a big F/O haul from them tomorrow.

Amazing video Tiggy as always. One question. When you soap at room temperature how does your soap go through the gel phase? Do you insulate it? Thank you. Katherine x

@futureprimitivesoap 6 лет назад

I don't do anything to make my soap gel. If it gels by itself that's it. I don't force it. I leave all of my soaps uninsulated.

@futureprimitivesoap 6 лет назад

Also, soap will go through gel phase (if it wants to) regardless of temp as it heats up naturally by itself.

@Naturalsoaprecipes 6 лет назад

Thank you for quick reply 🤗 ok I thought in cp you have to force gel. Ok that changes things. So you don't even cover the soap at all? 🙄

@futureprimitivesoap 6 лет назад

+Ishbel Ramsay thing is i used to do a 38% lye concentration with all my batches a few years ago, but i was having troubles with acceleration a lot (me being impatient and soaping too warm didn't help matters) so I went back to doing a 25% water discount, which I can manage. This is a slightly higher lye concentration (about 40%) so I will use it with one scent, one colour soaps I think. It sure makes a super hard bar, and no soda ash is great, but I ain't risking it with swirly batches right now.

@sandramckelvie6913 7 лет назад

Hi Tiggy, If you do a ghost swirl the portion that has higher water is much thicker. Usually you would think that more water thins it down but the opposite seems true. I don't know why this happens but perhaps the extra water cools the batter.

@futureprimitivesoap 7 лет назад

sandra mckelvie ah yes I remember that Aunty Clara post. I don't think I have the patience to do the 2 portions of soap. Maybe one day when I have more time on my hands to experiment. Thanks for watching xx

@sandramckelvie6913 7 лет назад

No it does seem quite complicated when you read the blog and since I don't have any patience at all I just use a really easy cheat version. I will try to write it down and you can see what you think.

@futureprimitivesoap 7 лет назад

+sandra mckelvie ok that would be good. I don't like faff!

@futureprimitivesoap 7 лет назад

sandra mckelvie do you split the lye in two, then put more water in one of the jugs?

@sandramckelvie6913 7 лет назад

Ok I want to make 1000g of soap so I do 2 x 500g recipe into soapcalc. One at low water and one at high water. If you check the oils and the lye are the same in both. The only difference is the water. In my case the high water half has 82g more water (this varies with recipie as you know). All I do is make up 1000g batch with the low water then pour off half into a jug with 82g of water. You can do this by eye as the water doesn't matter. You now have 2 batters - the original low water which is fluid and the new high water which is starting to thicken. It makes a nice swirl without using colours.

It looks smooth & creamy in the final shots you showed. You are my water discount guru! lol p.s. I LOVE that you did a quick flash of Divine!

@futureprimitivesoap 6 лет назад

I would say the only thing, which may cause issues is temperature. I soap pretty cool, like a little below room temp. What temp did you use? The recipe isn't much different to my own. I split the liquid oils into sunflower and olive and use cocoa butter as an additional 2% superfat on top of the soapcalc default of 5%, so my overall superfat sits at around 7%. Any help?

@gwen525600 6 лет назад

Somewhat. I soaped at 95 so that puts me over by 25 degrees. I'm only a few months into soap making so I am still learning. 25 degrees is a lot so I will try soaping at room temp with a water discount to see how it turns out. I had it backwards. I thought soaping at a mid range temp would keep my batter more fluid. OR maybe I should use more liquid oils. If I count coconut I'm using 65% fast moving oils. Maybe take out a little coconut & palm & sub sunflower. Like I said still learning! Thanks so much your soaps are gorgeous! :0)

@Greatewall79 Год назад

Hello and thank you for this video! Just one question because the term "Water discount" is really confusing!!.... When you say "Water Discount" Do you refer to using just half (50%) of the total amount of lye + water solution called in the recipe right? Just an example: if my recipe calls for Water 200 gr + Lye 130 gr = 330 gr I will just need to use half of this total amount? (165 gr) ? Thanks!

@futureprimitivesoap Год назад

No. It's just a water discount. This is nothing to do with lye. The lye you require is based on the weight of your oils, so you keep that the same, obviously. When I say a 50 per cent WATER discount, I'm discounting the water by half.

Everything seems to work well in the start but after cutting the soap and using it, a gel kind of liquid(gooey) starts coming out from the soap. The gooey comes from the area which is in contact with the soap tray or any surface.Ive changed my lye but still every batch i make gives out sufficient amount of gooey liquid after using it. I would be very very grateful if you can guide me to get rid of this gooey from soap. I havent been able to find any solution on the internet as alot of soap makers are unfamiliar with it .
