SoapCalc Tutorial - How To Use a Lye Calculator

Показать описание
In this tutorial, we're diving into SoapCalc, one of the most popular lye calculators among soapmakers! As I say in the video, knowing how to use a lye calculator is very important (and empowering!) for soapmakers as it is useful for checking existing recipes, formulating your own recipes, and resizing recipes. In this video, we cover the following topics:

0:00 Introduction
3:46 Basics of Soap Calc
13:27 Entering a Recipe in Soap Calc
30:33 Resizing a Recipe in Soap Calc
42:32 How to Swap Out an Oil in your Recipe
46:40 Using a 50/50 Lye Water Solution in Soap Calc

There's more we could talk about, but this video was getting pretty long! In part two, we'll cover soap attributes and recipe formulation. I was sick with Covid when recording this video, so my voice is a bit mucousy (ha!), but hopefully it's not too obvious. :)

(by the way, I mention using an adblocker in this video, but ads is how soapcalc makes money, so I take it back! I definitely want to support this tool, but I just find the ads are so intense on this website that it makes it distracting and hard to use, as they are located around the entire calculator)

I adore watching your videos. You make everything very easy to understand! I really like how you break things down into their simplest form and then build from there. That is one sign of a brilliant teacher! And that makes this teacher’s heart so happy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. 😊

I watched a lot of videos on lye and didn't think this video would add anything. I was wrong. Thank you for this video, I learned so much here. I think you have one of the best channels.
