In this video I'm making some 100% coconut oil dish soap, it's a great soap for all sorts of jobs around the kitchen. The video also takes you through in detail the reasons why you would want to add citric acid to your cold-process soap and how to do it.
If you would like to buy a copy of the recipe with full written instructions and explanations of what to do if you would like to change ingredients in any way to suit your need of may it 'your own' you can find it here.

Although my cold process soap making tutorials are of a tutorial nature, they are intended for people who have a good understanding of making cold process soap. The information given is based on what works for me, however, there are lots of variables associated with cold process soap making and I, therefore, take no responsibility for the results achieved when using the techniques or methods explained in these tutorials. Cold process soap involves the necessary use of sodium Hydroxide (lye) which is a very dangerous substance. Before attempting and cold process soap making you should ensure you are fully aware of the lye safety procedures and always wear the correct safety equipment when making soap.

I made my first soap with citric acid a few hours ago. I first had to make some effort to find out exactly what that all meant. If I had waited a bit, my deep dive into citric acid would not have been necessary. What a clear explanation! Great job. 👍👍👍

Lerak (soap nuts) can be used as it is, without turning it into soap. In Java, Indonesia lerak is usually used to wash batik. Soak 10 pieces of soap nuts (I like to remove the seed first) in 1000ml water (overnight if the soap nuts are dry like in this video). Crush the soaked soap nuts until the solution becomes bubbly. Heat the soap nut & water solution until it reaches boiling point, add 2 tsp salt. At this stage my mum likes to add sliced lime for fragrance. Once it is cooled, strain, then ready for use just as you would liquid soap. Store it in fridge to prolong shelf life.

I use citric acid in all my soaps because I used to have hard water, and when I started soaping, we got tons of soap scum. As soon as I started using 2% CA, our shower drain clogged more slowly and there was less visible scum caught in the TubShroom. The sink also stayed bright white and clean longer after scrubbing. Amazing! It's in my dish soap too of course, even though I don't have hard water in my new home. I've never tried soap nuts before. How interesting! Regarding superfat, I went with -1% SF for my laundry soap because I didn't want any oil at all in my laundry. For my dish soap, I used 0.5% for safety. I forgot about the margin of safety in the SAP value while I was writing it up, though. I'll go for 0% on the next batch. If anyone wants to get fragrance recommendations for dish soap,, I prefer savory herbal fragrances or citrus. I got a basil EO bar from another maker that smelled incredible. I've been using tomato leaf coriander from Nature's Garden and Awaken from Nurture Soap. These fresh but food-based scents don't clash with the smell of my last meal the way that traditional dish soap fragrance sometimes does. I still keep good old Dawn around for household cleaning though. It's what I use to clean my bathroom on the recommendation of a professional housekeeper!

Hi Lisa, that was an exceptional video! Now though, I am wondering why I see some soapers using both citric acid and sodium citrate in their recipes for solid dish soap. If the lye turns the citric acid into sodium citrate in the first place, can you think of any reason why someone would use both ❓Also, I've always just used sodium citrate, so I am now wondering how that changes things as far as needing to add back 0.6g lye per 1g citric acid. I am assuming I don't need to because the citric acid has already been converted to sodium citrate in the first place. Please untangle these two mysteries' for me if you can 🤣

Most of the assessors will not sign a pine tar soap recipe as it seems it's cancenogenic like cigarettes. Still pine tar it is actually NOT banned for use, but the assessors will not sign it for use, just to cover themselves in case Trading Standards enquiries and they wouldn't be able to justify the use in the soap... Hypocritically, cigarettes that you inhale seems to be OK for sale, but a wash off product no 🤷‍♂️

Hi Lisa, I have used soap nuts in my dish soap but not the citric acid. I may have missed this part, when you add more lye to cover the loss from the citric acid do you also add more water or by not adding extra water is that how you got to the slightly negative so to speak? Also, have you ever made laundry soap and if so would you use the citric acid in that as well for the same reasons? I love the way you explained the process and now I'm having a lightbulb moment and can't stop. Seriously though, I love how you explain everything while you're working. Very enjoyable videos.

I've made several recipes of dish soap bars before, but always ended up with water spots on dishes when I let them air dry. That stopped me from giving them out to co-workers last Christmas. The only solution I found was to rinse in very hot water. This has been a hobby for me, but the spots stump me. I used distilled water and 2% citric acid. Can you please advise what is causing spots and how to eliminate them? Many thanks!

@IDreamInSoap 10 ай бұрын

If you have spots that need rinsing in very hot water it's likely that you still have some superfat in your dish soap, therefore you are adding oil. You may need to play with your recipe to properly eliminate the superfat. A lye calculator will only give an estimate

Hello Lisa, this was a great video! I have been watching your channel for about a year and I am a huge fan! I am curious about deciding when to use citric acid in my soapmaking. I only have used it a couple of times, so I am not really sure what to expect. Would it be a good addition to a milk soap?

@IDreamInSoap 10 ай бұрын

There's no reason you can't use it in a goat milk soap. I would just consider how you add the goat milk. If you just use part goat milk and therefore still use water to dissolve your lye then it would be fine. If however you use full goat milk and do the ice cube method to make your lye you may have trouble adding the citric as it needs to be dissolved before adding the lye. It's water soluble, so it would dissolve in goat milk, but I sometimes find it needs a bit of warmth as well

If I may add my 2 cents? I make ocean water soaps when I travel, and sometimes I'm offered various milks to add to my recipes. What I learned to do is to make my own proportion soaps of 75:25 milk:ocean water or 80:20 depending on the quality of the milk, and breed/species. The quality of the soap was always amazing, it would harden quickly in the individual molds (NEVER use loaf molds w/any salt content soap!), and my hosts/new friends/students would have their best soaps in record time. And I hate to contradict, but saponification completes as soon as the lye and oil/fat mixture has chilled. If you have used the correct proportion of lye to water to fats/oils, the result is soap (a sodium salt) and glycerine (a glycerol, in chemical terms). And it shouldn't take days, unless something has gone wrong, but maybe a few hours as in a pure olive oil soap (Castile is legendary for this! 😢). Most soaps, however, take about an average of an hour, at most. Once you get them out of their molds, or you're able to cut them if you put them in a loaf mold, you can use them... In theory anyway. But you wouldn't want to. They'll last you for a week, and they'll leave you squeaky clean, because though they're NOT raw, they're not very gentle yet. Think your teenage boyfriend, or how YOU were as a teenage boyfriend. Exactly! 😅 Give your soap a chance to mature, those salt crystals to get their act together as the water molecules get yeeted, and generally your bar becomes more gentle. If you have any soaps older than 6 months, and try those vs some that are 6 weeks, you'll see the difference. Sorry for the hijack. I just LOVE soaping... ❤

@eqrain21 10 ай бұрын

Does it make a difference if you add the citric acid at trace or with the lye as you did? I've added citric acid to my soaps before but did it at trace instead of earlier in the process. We do have very hard water here but I think I may have done it for another reason at the time like slowing down trace (not sure if it actually does that but I read it is supposed to).

@IDreamInSoap 10 ай бұрын

If you add it at trace it's unlikely to dissolve properly as citric acid is water solvable. So at trace there may not be enough free water. Also if your soap has actually come to trace that would imply that the lye is emulsified with the oils naking it difficult for the citric acid to turn into sodium citrate. Citric acid on it's own doesn't reduce soap scum etc. It needs to turn into sodium citrate by combining with lye before it will act as a chealator

It's not stupid at all. I use it 2 ways, if I am running a whole sink of water I put the soap in a cup or something, normally something I'm about to wash up.

I also just wet a sponger and rub the soap onto it, squeeze the sponge to foam it up and the rub on the dishes etc, rinse as normal.

🤍Hi 🤚🩷 Thank You , Im very curious and interested about Citric acid ... to use instead of lye. I just purchased Lime powder , thinking I wonder if I can make soap with ? I saw a Soap making video with fresh Aloe made without the lye and now cant find the video ( about 3 Years ago ) . I had tried the Soap Nuts before for Laundry with also Dr. Bronners , Baking Soda and different Essential Oils , I really liked but I dont know if Its Ecological Logical , And okay for the machinery ?? 🩷🤍

I'm never sure how good soap nuts are for the washing machine, some people love them some don't and I do hear things about them not being good for the machine and eventually ending up with grey looking clothes, so I don't use them in the washing machine. But I'm not an expert on this and have no 1st hand experience

@@IDreamInSoap , probably as a minimal supplemental maybe , with also a little Vinegar , or budget Vodka so It doesnt get grey , and gunky the lines ?? I would want to try to make Bathroom Hand Soap , and for a Shampoo base ... ?? I liked how It felt , the suds felt Natural , Wholesome and Clean. I Appreciated they were available at TraderJoes in Los Angeles area. I purchased a few Years ago , they had for a while in their Stores. TJs ' is a Farmers progressive Market that grew up , offering awesome products like that. A lot different then Sainsburys and Waitrose in the UK. Though I really Appreciated the Produce and awesome Products that they offered there too , differently . Especially Sainsburys leaving Food out for Society , Humanity 🤍🩷
