@@bobriopel6391 What a remark. He's right tho. People today(not just women) have lost touch with nature and buy everything in supermarkets. They would have no idea how to make soap or cover any of their basic needs by using stuff they find in nature alone. What this woman returned to are THE ROOTS of human civilisation. She is not an artifical product of the modern civilisation.

@@bobriopel6391 Exactly, we are so weak in this day in age. 50 years ago people could make soap AND they had enough self confidence to handle words that could be interpreted as misogynistic. We are socially engineered today to be divided with our fellow citizens and to not recognize life past wall street. This is how people used to live and it gave them purpose, self value, and independence.

I got a tad emotional in the intro....how well I understand the "give up the rat race or carrot on a stick" lifestyle. My wife and I found a turn of the century home in the country where we raised our family of four children...horses, pigs, chickens, geese...you name it. That was thirty six years ago. To this day all of my children thank us for raising them in the country and brag on how wonderful and full their childhood was. Now, eleven grand children later... my daughter is doing the same. She and her family are beginning a homesteading life...I will give her a link to your wonderful channel. God Bless.

@BillAnt 3 жыл бұрын

While homesteading may not be for everybody, I would consider it a healthier lifestyle than being a city slicker. Work around the home(stead) provided more physical activity, including being out in the clean open air, which makes one sleep better which is super important especially when getting older.

PSA - Neutralizing lye w vinegar creates an EXOTHERMIC reaction meaning you’ll be burning yourself TWICE! Once with the lye causing a chemical burn and again with a thermal burn caused by the neutralization - that energy has to go somewhere. Best to rinse with LOADS of water, save the vinegar for pickling! It’s disheartening that this misinformation is still shared!

@@blowitoutyourcunt7675 It's still shared because it's good advice. I've been making soap for almost 30 years, and use vinegar *all the time* when I get lye on my hands. The amounts we deal with are not large enough to create any exothermic heat. It's a classic case of book knowledge and practical experience. We know that mixing acids and bases creates water, salts, and heat. But in practice, when you get some lye crystals under your fingernail or in an old paper cut, household vinegar will quickly and painlessly neutralize the lye.

If you do this, actually use a spatula and pour the lye water over the top of the spatula that is in the lard. Then use the immersion blender in spurts to bring your product to trace.

Saponification is the name of the process. It's funny when people make fun of lye soap (like the Beverly Hillbillies, note Granny was always BOILING a HUGE kettle of supposed soap, and I promise if you boil it , it will come out grainy.). they think the lye stays lye, like chemistry doesn't happen to change it into something else. That would be like sodium and chloride stayed their respective toxic selves instead of turning into salt. Also, there are VERY cute candy silicone molds and soap molds to make adorable soaps if you want.

Here's the ingredients for a homemade organic herbal soap 5 cups coconut oil 3 cups lye solution (made from wood) 1 cup fresh herbal extract (I used herbal and fruit extracts) 1 tablespoon citronella oil (optional) Use same process. Mix oil with lye solution. If the mixture becomes creamy add the herbal or fruit extract and mix for few minutes until it meets its consistency. Add citronella oil and mix for few seconds. Pour into a molder and let it stand for 12-24 hours. Remove from molder and cut to desired size. Air dry for 28-30 days to complete saponification. Clean and packaging. Good luck.

Great tutorial, however, to keep from adding unnecessary and unnatural chemicals into the soap, a glass bowl would be much better when mixing the lye, so you dont get bpe's into the soap. And when mixing the lye, its best to do it outdoors for better ventilation.

Blahs Blahs actually, glass should NOT be used to mix lye. #5 plastic is best. Glass containers have been known to explode from the lye water mix!

Melinda Lockwood Thank you I was really curious about the glass.

@thegomezs1548 4 жыл бұрын

We use Pyrex glass containers that withstand 450°F and we used it to mix the lye while having a thermometer in the water to watch the temperature carefully and never has it broken and I agree on it being mixed outside also, for better ventilation

Maria Ramirez Lye, overtime can etch away at the glass making it unstable and prone to shattering. I for one would not risk shattering glass with a caustic solution flying at me. #5 plastic is the best container.

@ Indiania Cazablanka, I noticed this too- she makes it seem easy and doable..........all others I look at look complicated......I love this one, makes me want to make Soap, wonder if we can use coconut oil instead of lard.....?

@xyzxyz23513 3 жыл бұрын

Lard means what? Secondly some using oils like coconut olive etc. Here she used lard. So i am getting confuse. Plz give me book name

@nmosfet5797 3 жыл бұрын

@@xyzxyz23513 Lard is animal fat. You can make soap from any kind of fat, animal or vegetable. Traditionally soap is made from animal fat, because you used to have a supply of leftover fat from cooking meat or butchering animals, and you could use that fat to make soap instead of wasting it. But if you don't use so much meat for cooking that you would have a leftover of lard, then it makes sense to buy vegetable oil and use it instead.

Have gathered all I need to try my first ever batch of soap. This looks like a great starting point for me. I have always been intimidated by the lye. LOL I decided the only way I am ever going to do it is by doing it. But the mold I ordered turned out to be much smaller than I thought it was. Can you tell me the volume, or the measurements, of this mold you are using so I can adjust the recipe appropriately, please? Thanks for sharing your videos with us.

If you go to her website she has a drop down for supplies and sends you to amazon to the one she purchased. I go to aliexpress.com cheaper just takes longer to get. You get what you pay for so look around.
