This time, despite doing exactly the same again, it worked perfectly. My conclusion is that the freezing process is essential for rendering.

To make it even more gentle on the skin I would up the superfat to 5%. Or you can take it a notch up and use my shaving soap recipe. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pLJ0lcJ9q8zbqpc.html

Hi Fallon. Apologies for taking so long to reply, somehow your message slipped by. You can definitely use lard, Boerseep was made with any animal fat available to the farmers wives. I personally uses Tallow only because it is much cheaper than Lard. Just always run the recipe through a soap calculator to ensure you use the correct amount of lye, although as far as I remember the SAP values for Tallow and Lard are very close, if not the same.

Goeie dag. Hoop nie dit is n dom vraag nie. So as ek die resep reg verstaan is die "liquid required" dan water? en die NaOH is die soda? Daai word dan saam gemeng. Die oil weight is dan die tallow se gewig? Ek kan 5% vervang met coconut oil as ek reg verstaan. En dan natuurlik die fragrance olie vir wasgoed seep en essential olie vir bad seep? Wat meen jy met superfat as ek mag vra? Ek is so bietjie besig met navorsing. Baie dankie

@saponify6677 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Daisy en Mekaela. Daar is nie so iets soos n dom vraag nie. Die vloeistof kan water wees of jy kan ander vloeistof ook gebruik soos kruie tee, melk of selfs goed soos wortelsap, as jy net begin met seepmaak, begin met water, suiker in sappe en melk is geneig om die seep maklik te laat oorverhit en benodig addisionele stappe om dit te verhoed. Die ander deel is die lye. Jy voeg altyd die lye/soda/NaOH/Sodium Hydroxide (baie verskillende name vir dieselfde bestandeel) by die water en nooit Andersomnie, onthiu altyd "sneeu val op n dam, die dam val nooit op die sneeu nie 😉" 5 persent superfat beteken dit is 5% van jiu olie of vet wat nie verseep nie en onveranderd bly dit bevogtig jou vel. In die beskrywing van my videos sit ek gewoonlik die seep se formasie (met persentasies) as jy net inder dit kykbsal jy n skakel na Soapmakingfriend website sien, dit is die resep in gram. Jy is welkom om dit uit te print en so te gebruik. Die video verduidelik ek meer hoe die aanlyn seeprekenaar werk , ek dink dit sal jou ook meer insig gee op die supervet en die vloeistof /NaOH verhouding. Jy is altyd welkom om vrae te vra, ek help graag. Ansa kzfaq.info/get/bejne/acuPpbZo29SbaGw.html

And a tablespoon of powdered sugar per 500gram of oil will also boost bubbles.

Hi Genevieve. For hardwater I would add a bit more coconut oil in the recipe, {I know boerseep is traditionally just lard or Tallow but coconut oil boosts the lather} coconut oil soap is more soluble than Tallow or Lard and the cleansing number will be higher, then I would use some citric acid as well to act as a chelator by binding to the minerals in the water to allow your soap to perform better. Here is a video on citric acid in soap. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/apOUn6monJfYdKM.html

@saponify6677 Жыл бұрын

Hi Marie, I prefer not to make Boerseep gel, it is very slimy, but if slimy doesn't put you off you basically make a Tallow liquid soap, you use Potasium Hydroxide to make a soap paste and then thin it to the desired thickness. I add about 5ml blousel to a 1.5kg Tallow recipe but it depends on how blue you want your soap to be. The recipes in my 43 year old book (So maak ons seep) calls for up to 50grams of Borax for every 2kg of fat. I hope that gives you some guidelines to work with. 🌿

Net vir interresantheid, blousel se bestandele is Koeksoda en ultramarine blou kleursel, die koeksoda is net n bindmiddel en help volume opmaak in die blousel blokkie. Jy kan skoon ultramarine blou kleursel by www.riverleasoap.co.za koop, wees net versigtig, n Klein bietjie skoon blou gaan baie vêr om kleur te gee.

Hi! I have 2 questions: will the lather of pure tallow soap get better over time if I dont use coconut oil? and 2) will the soap become “oudourless” if I dont use fragrance oil? What is your opinion on fragrance free tallow soap? Thanks very much fellow South African😁👏

@saponify6677 2 жыл бұрын

Hi. You are very welcome fellow South African 😀 100% Tallow soap doesn't make big bubbles but rather a foam (think shaving foam) the foam-ability does improve with time , I have some Tallow soap older than 10 years that outperforms my new soap, but if you want it to lather up easier and more you will have to tweak the recipe a bit. The odor depends very much on your method of rendering, wet rendering keeps the temperatures low, the meaty smell usually creeps in the moment the fat reaches temperatures where the sinew and meaty bits starts to crisp up during dry rendering. If you do make soap with a smell it will tone down and even dissappear over time. Here is the link to my wet rendering video, you can even use more water than what I've added to in this video, I just skimpt on water to be able to add more fat to the pot 😀 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fM-FeZeTmc26cas.html

Hi. Cold process soap is safe to use within 48 hours, but during the cure of four to six weeks soap loses moisture and soap crystals keep forming on a microscopic level and keeps on improving. I would not package it before 4 weeks, especially if you wrap your soap, it could still shrink in size as it loose moisture and then your wraps becomes "rattle fit" or the band slides down. 🌿🌷🌿

Some websites/recipes say you can use any animal fat such as rendered beef fat, rendered pig fat or rendered mutton fat but that mutton fat does have a bit of a smell. What is the difference then between tallow & lard? (One is Beef & the other pig apparently) Can I use lard then to make soap? Thanks in advance.

@saponify6677 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Fallon, no question is a silly question, and you are always welcome to ask. Yes you can use different animal fats in soap, there will be differences in smell and colour, and the fatty acid profiles wil also differ slightly. For example. Tallow: Stearic Acid 22% Oleic acid 36% Lard: Stearic acid 13% Oleic acid 46% Meaning Tallow is a little bit more creamy and Lard a little more moisturising. If you haven't watched my soap calculator video yet it might help you choose between them. For me it usually ends up to cost effectiveness, Tallow is 3 times cheaper than Lard where I live. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/acuPpbZo29SbaGw.html

Hi Japie. Die mengsel verdik en "set", ek sit gewoonlik my seepvorm op n oondrooster neer sodat dit nie hitte opbou nie. Dit is persoonlike voorkeur of jy die seep deur gel-fase wil laat gaan waar dit warm word en soos Vaseline lyk voor dit afkoel, in die geval sal jy die vorm op n soliede blad neersit, n karton oor die vorm sit en alles met n handoek toegooi om die hitte te behou totdat al die seep soos Vaseline lyk. ( Seep wat deur gel fase gaan is as eindproduk meer "translucent / off-white" waar as dit nie deur gell fase gaan nie is dit n helderder wit) Beide metodes moet jy dophou, sodra boerseep afkoel word dit verskriklik hard en breek dit as jy dit sny, sny terwyl dit louwarm tot redelik warm is. (As jy op die seep druk en dit gee nie mee nie, kan jy sny. Anders giet in enkel vorms.

I bought some tallow from a soap making supplier in Jhb, but is has a weird smell. I was hoping that it wouldn't come through in the finished product, but the soap has a 'sweaty' smell!!! What do I do to sort it out please

@saponify6677 Жыл бұрын

Hi Shirley. It I best to render your own Tallow, I prefer wet rendering to keep any smells to minimum. Adding water to the rendering process keeps the max temperature to the lower side, the meaty bits doesn't have enough heat to crisp up in the oil adding to the "meaty" smell. With this batch just give it some time, the smell might still mellow out over time. You can also add some essential or fragrance oil at trace to your soap to mask some of it. I like to add some peppermint essential oil to mine. Citrus scents also smells nice but I've found that they lose their fragrance fast, citrus just doesn't stick around for long by themselves.

Would adding clay or activated charcoal also work to lessen the smell? I don't want to use essential oils.

How do i kill smell of tallow as it has woofy meaty smell

@saponify6677 Жыл бұрын

Hi there. I prefer to do wet rendering when I render my Tallow. By adding water to the pot you limit the temperature to 100⁰C and prevent the meaty bits in the fat to crisp up, it is the meaty bits that increase the meaty smell. Here is a video on how I do wet rendering. Hope this help. 🌿 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fM-FeZeTmc26cas.html

Hello!! After render the tallow you can infuse it with rosemary at 40oC, no more, overnight. That helps a little. I do it that way and I love rosemary. The same with lard. Greetings!!

Hi Munther, Tallow is beef fat, you just need to buy Halal fat. I have a Muslim friend who buys Halal fat and makes Tallow soap and render it by using this method.
