    I like it with the active charcoal the black gives it a different tone than with just the other colors it looks more attractive with the black stripes mixing in with all the other colors

    Made your soap on Saturday. Used the 25% water and used the oven as you suggested. Came out very nice. I think next time I won’t use the white base, just start the concentric on the bottom of the mold. Thanks for sharing

    Dear Teri, As always, I get such a kick out of watching you make soap. I feel like I am back in high school; you would be my favorite teacher. I always learn something new from you with each new video that you share. I have noticed that in your last few videos you had frozen your distilled water into cubes prior to adding the lye. That is a great technique to control the heat produced by adding the lye to the water. I also have noticed that you now use a disposable coffee filter to line the cup into which you pour and measure the lye crystals. I like that too! I chuckle when you speed up the video. Watching your gloved hands move fast as you mix and stir is so funny! By far, my favorite parts of your videos is watching you use your painter's palette and painter's scalpel to mix your carefully measured micas with olive oil. Oh, and I like how neat and tidy you are; always wiping up after yourself. And thank goodness you plan to release a video specifically explaining why you slant that ruler. LOL!!! I am from SoCal. To quote a phrase from my neck of the woods: " Gurl you got skillz".

    • @TreeMarieSoapworks
      @TreeMarieSoapworks  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I adore your creativity and the way you work. I think one of my most favorite parts might be the way you scrape every last bit of soap or colorant with your spatula and palette knife, leaving your cups and tools all cleaned out. It's honestly calming my raging inner OCD monster, hahaha!

    Slanting the ruler ensures the easiest way to divide the slab into equal parts by allowing the cutter to mark on the largest line on the ruler at each interval. However, if you want a desired width, then you have to measure perpendicularly.

    I love this technique and the colors. The black just makes it pop and you can see all the colors individually with the black. I noticed that some colors just blend or get lost in one another when there is nothing there to define them. I have this happen to me a lot and watching your video helped me with that "ah ha!" moment. You asked the right questions of your viewers and it just made sense to me. Thank you so much and had my mom not suggested this video to me...I may have missed those words of wisdom. Thank you again!

    Beautiful soap. I do like the contrast with the black. Also, your discussion about soda ash has been my experience as well. I use Saran Wrap and place it on the face of the soap...no more soda ash. I have also seen many other videos that spray with 91 isopropyl alcohol to prevent soda ash. Thank you for many of your great tips for soap making. I have been making soap for a ridiculous number of years and your presentations are inspirational.

      Yes, I had a few on my black and red soap. I use Pink GF EO and Peppermint, and I said this mixture is known to behave and I had some disagreements. (It was a video I deleted and reposted without the Pewdiepie reference because he was controversial. All I was trying to do was his chair pattern. My son showed it to me and challenged me to make it. Anyway, I don't want to be associated with that so that video and all the comments on the peppermint were deleted.)

    Another thing: you asked about the colors and if we liked them. Don't judge that until after you marble them. I didn't like them at all...serious, except for the Fuchsia and Aurora Purple. The yellow was great, too. But, after you marbled, all the colors married well. So, that would be the point to ask if there is something different that you might have chosen for colorants. You did awesome.

    Thank you for your videos! I really appreciate your giving percentages for the colours as figuring out how much of each colour to use is tricky for me, as is acceleration. I tried using a water discount in my most recent batch and ended up with a mess because it accelerated so fast, but when I use full water I always have glycerine rivers. I'm going to keep trying, and look forward to learning more from you. You're an excellent teacher! And I really like the black in this. Your colours are always gorgeous. Peace to you from Canada. ☮️

      Did you stick blend only to an emulsion was reached, then split the batter? You have to give yourself time to color your batter. If you need to stick blend after to get to trace you can at that point. Just make sure not to stick blend too much in the beginning. Happy Thanksgiving to you in Canada, Christine! 🍁🍂💕

    Wonderful soap as always, and I appreciate the lesson on the way various things can affect trace and cause acceleration. All very interesting.
    As for the colour change thing... I *may* have an answer for that (with the yellow oxide). It turns out that in concentrated sodium hydroxide, iron oxide can sometimes for complex ions that are (I believe) colourless - and this would reduce the intensity of the colour if that's so. It may be that the concentrated sodium hydroxide solution plus the extra high temperatures for gel phase are causing some of the iron oxide to form this complex ion at a greater rate than normal. I need to get confirmation that the complex ion formed is, in fact, colourless (or at least, paler yellow) and if I can find that out for sure, then that might be the answer to why gel phase with steep water discounts cause some iron-oxide-containing micas to respond that way.

    • @TreeMarieSoapworks
      @TreeMarieSoapworks  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is very interesting! When I use the yellow oxide pigment it is always a very deep yellow. I did find out the micas only contain 1-5% pigment, the rest is mica and TD. That might explain a lot of it right there. That is not that much color! I talked to someone who owns a soap supply company and she said that the yellow micas may need 3x as much colorant. She said that the oranges are super heat sensitive, the hotter they get, the more peach they are. It so interesting. I'd love to hear what you can find out.

      @@TreeMarieSoapworks If it were consistently just paler, then yes. that would possibly be it. But the vast difference that happens (for example) in the same bar of soap with and without gel phase specifically with steep water discounts (as per that other maker's video) suggests that it's something else that's going on, rather than just needing more in general (I did see in the video that you mentioned that). Although needing more would make sense aking with that, I think - that you need to use more because of the risk of it being formed into a colourless complex, and having to provide extra to compensate. But absolutely I'll let you know if I find out for sure.

    I went back and watched this one, and your explanation of oven processing reminded me of something. I use water as 25% of oils, and I had been oven processing my soap, but realized recently that my soap was overheating (bubbles on the edges of my silicone molds). I haven't done much research into this, but my hunch is that different blends of oils heat up more easily. I use a combination of lard and tallow for my hard oils, so others who do the same may not need to oven process to get gel, even at a steep water discount. Has anyone else noticed this?

  • @daphneydonegan5680

    What is gel and not gel for soaps. I hope you understand my question. I've watched some other soap makers and they dont place theirs in the oven.

    • @TreeMarieSoapworks
      @TreeMarieSoapworks  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Gelling happens when soap heats up starting in the middle and spreads out to the edges. Other soapers make larger batches and use a higher water %. Higher water and larger batches equal easier to gel. My soaps are smaller batches and lower water. Lower water soaps with smaller batches may need a nudge to get all the way through gel. Either way, your soap is fine. It doesn't have to go through gel. I am trying to avoid partial gel because I don't like the look of it. Also gelling my soap along with lower water helps to avoid soda ash, glycerin rivers, sticky cuts and it makes a harder bar. Here is a link to a partially gelled soap of mine. facebook.com/TreeMarieSoapworks/photos/a.751305801660231/492401444217336/?type=3&theater

    You answered a question earlier in the comments about why you use distilled water, could you use demineralised or deionised water instead of distilled?
    Thank you for another great tutorial, and just like most of the other posts, I think the black works well.

    • @TreeMarieSoapworks
      @TreeMarieSoapworks  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can probably use the demineralised water. I am not sure what the deionised. You would just have to try it. It would probably be fine, but I just don't know for sure.
      Thank you! The black is a keeper! 😊
