wow, now this was very refreshing to see. You simplified the process and made it waaay less of a big deal. Freakin awesome. I don't worry about temperatures either. I use the heat from the lye water to melt the butters/solid oils and once melted, I add the liquid oils to it. I've heard that it's ok to add fragrance oils that cause issues to the lye water. As this prevents it from causing issues in the soap. Haven't tried it yet though. Great/simple video.

Dude. Its so great to see another soaper that works the way I do. I always soap hotter than most... like between 130-160. I always make my lye water for the day and then my oils. And the trace comment. Absolutely. Especially when you’re doing any colors. Just subscribed to your channel. I run a shop in Bardstown, Kentucky. Good to see another guy soaper.

Thank you so much!!! You are awesome! 😁🙌 everybody else makes it so complicated!

You are the first person I have seen who did the blending in realtime - most soapmakers fast forward through that process. Thank you for not rushing the video and doing the realtime blending. It gives valuable information to people like me who are considering trying to make some soap.

Thank you this was VERY HELPFUL. I was always worried about temp.

[jamesfeeney]

I use ice for 80% of my water weight and water for the remaining 20% - gets the lye temp right to 100 degrees

[gnomeoshaves]

Excellent video! Really appreciate the info buddy

Agree on feeling, smell, ect, but yes flower fragrances makes it harden up like crazy! I always soap at room temp only bc, of trying to swirl or whatnot but going nice clean and simple it’s nice to know you don’t have to stress about temp as much !! As always thanks for the video!! Our family loves you guys!!

Thank you sooo much for this video. I will not sweat the small stuff anymore. Gonna make soap all day today and have fun doing it!!!

Thanks again for this wonderful video that makes me feel calm about checking temperature, but now I feel everything will work out just fine, I'll enjoy soap making more. ❤️

What about cooler lye mixture into hotter oil mixture. Lye at 100 degrees oil at 150 degrees...ish

Can you make a video on seasoning a cast iron pan using your product

[danalin]

Yep I soap by feel too. FO and clay's are the only things I adjust for. The soap does what it wants to do and I'm along for the ride. My soaps range from super fancy to Naked all based on their attitude. Of course I adjust my recipe based on needs but soap is soap.

Hi, thank for your videos. I made my 50/50 ly solution and put it in a safe container. I just touch it and it's hard. How do I reheat it so I can use it please?
