    Goggles are a MUST! Please, please have her wear goggles. Lye can blind you.

      I am a retired science teacher. Please use goggles when making soap. Lye can destroy your eyes.

      I boil frames in lye and I learned the value of goggles the hard way.

    Great job Syleena.
    Brought back memories of making detergent bars at Unilever, 30 years ago. Lye was called "Caustic Soda" and we used rubber gloves and googles, while handling it.

    Syleena, I was delighted to have the opportunity to meet you , Bob and several others from the Blue Ridge Honey Co. team at NAHBE this year. I enjoyed the Co.'s beautiful booth (especially the soaps) so much, and didn't leave the expo without quite a few purchases made from it.
    This video is wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and talent with us!

  • @GeorgeCMcRae
    @GeorgeCMcRae 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Looked to me that the hardest part of the process was lining the boxes! I'm a soap maker (beekeeper too) and thoroughly enjoyed the video. Complete and detailed. Well done! Oh!! BTW, I use a stand mixer and the mixing is slower, yes, but when I have used a stick blender like you the tracing can get ahead of me pretty quickly. That's just me.

  • @dritch2472
    @dritch2472 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    She does a wonderful job teaching her soap making. Thanks for such a detailed video. I also make some for personal use but always wear safety goggles when making and pouring the lye. My friend who was a professional soap maker nearly lost her sight when lye splashed up and got in her eye.

  • @belindaayewoh437
    @belindaayewoh437 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great video Selena! Why don't you add honey to soap? Also, that mixer would be best if hanging from the ceiling on a spring. I've seen it in another video and thought it would save on any shoulder strain.

    Another interesting Video, My wife is wanting to have a go at soap making ...
    I am in New Zealand
    I have a question about transporting Hives on a trailer....(I should have asked around a month ago when You were loading a trailer with hives.)
    Do you always face the hives front to back or is it ok to have them sideways??
    The reason is the trailer I use is 1200mm wide and 2000mm long, ( Around 6 foot x 4 foot) or 2.9 hives wide and 3.7 long
    the 0.9 and 0.7 are unusable space!
    If the hives travel sideways I could fit 10 hives on a load.
    The journey is around 5 hours.
    I would be interested in your thoughts.

    • @bobbinnie9872
      @bobbinnie9872  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @bobbinnie9872

      We do have it saved for soap but it wasn't in this recipe. It can help protect against existing skin problems due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

When you said you wash it off, do you just do that in the sink? I guess it is just soap, but I can't get over the oil and wax in the drain. The lye must break the oils down? Thanks for sharing!
