I have been making soap for years, and I started selling it 7 months ago. I use tallow for all of my products I sell!! I LOVE it, and the benefits from it are so amazing!❤❤❤ Also, I love your videos! I don't comment very often, but I just have to spread my love for tallow!!😅

I'm excited to see you making this discovery. I hope you'll stick with it. I think you'll find it's worth the effort. Quite a while ago, I decided I didn't want to use palm oil in my soaps, so I switched to tallow, lard, or a combination of tallow and lard. Great decision. Despite the high saturated fats, my soap is always slow to trace, and I love the way the soap performs much more than I liked palm. It takes a little while for the soaps to harden up, as you discovered, but I do end up with nice hard bars in the end. Thanks for sharing your experiment with us. I love your enthusiasm.

I have been binge-watching your videos for the past couple of days. My grandmother is in the hospital so while I am sitting with her in her room we have been watching your videos. My grandmother taught me how to make soap from saved bacon fat and beef fat from hamburger in 2020. She taught me how to clean it. She has a recipe from my great-grandmother on how to make lye, but I suggested that we use my lye from Bramble Berry. She says she wishes she had all the fragrances like today when she was a little girl.

Would you be willing to share your great-grandmother's receipe for lye? Also how do you clean the meat grease to use?

@ashley-cz1sl Жыл бұрын

@@marydunnington8001 There are two different ways that my great-grandmother made lye. The main thing is it has to be with ashes from HARD wood. One of the ways is to collect all the ashes and put them in a 5-gallon bucket and cover them with water and then let it sit 8-12 weeks. I have used PH strips to test it. Strain it and put it in a glass container for storage. When making soap you do not have to add any water when it comes to the lye solution because it's already added. She also has a way to boil it over an open fire to crystalize it but I have not tried that yet. I have young kids and don't want them around the fire pit while doing that.

Hey Ellen! I made a version of this soap with a few changes, I upped tallow to 50%, dropped coconut and olive oil to 22.5% and added castor at 5% keeping the 6% superfat. I lather tested at day 4 like you showed and although super bubbly and creamy, it left my hands very dry. Did you experience this? Is it because it hasnt fully cured? Ive read some things that say the coconut is too high but others that dont. With your coconut being even higher, I assume youd have a similar first test batch that Im hoping cured more conditioning.
