Hello, how are you? I am following you from Jordan. If I bought the book for soap, can the book be translated into Arabic because I cannot read in English 😊
Your video is inspirational. Thank you for your good work. Could you tell me the type of lye you use in this soap because you baked it in the oven?
is this soap foaming? I would like to test it for my body.
I wish it was not asmr, I dont like listening to those... do you have ones that are not this style I can watch?
I was told the temperature of lye solution and oil should be not more than 10c, but in this video, oil was 22c and lye solution was 55c, can you please explain? Many thanks
I'm surprised it turned out so white. In my recipe I use cocoa butter, shea butter and olive oil and it turns a pastel yellow. I always thought this was due to the olive and cocoa butter(organic, this pale yellow). Seems it was only because of the cocoa butter, hm interesting.
Nice video! Thanks :)
Thank you! Yes you would expect a more yellow shade☺
as a castile soap maker/purist...adding other oils to an olive oil only batch, renders not a castile soap. sometimes my bars get a greener hue based on the greener olive oil i can get.
I can't stop watching your soap videos, great inspiration for me specially during COVID, thank you for your inspiration
Thank you so much🥰
I really enjoyed this video. The calm music and delicate use of tools is very relaxing.
Thank you for the consistent high-vibrational and soothing energy throughout your videos. I'm new to the channel (and also soap making), and was wondering if you or anyone else on the comments thread had any tips for getting harder castille/bastille soap. Because of my sensitive skin and young children I like to make gentle soaps with as few ingredients as possible. I almost exclusively use olive oil (pomace), and shea butter as my fats.
Salt dissolved in water prior to lye, 2tsp ppo and simple syrup/sugar solution added at emulsifi stion
Add sodium lactate will help harden soap into very hard bars. Add about ½ teaspoon per pound of oil to the recipe. Stir it into the lye solution well, making sure it is fully dissolved before adding the lye to the oils.
Oh my goodness, no one is better at video production quality. You have such talent! It's is always a pleasure to watch your work.
That means a lot❤❤
Oh common watch some asmr movies. Thats all what she does
Simple but elegant. You adore me through your work.God bless you 💗😊
Thank you so much❤
Love your videos! Just found your channel…so simple and peaceful not all this talking. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much🥰
Cure for 1-12 months 💀 looks like I’m going shopping
how come this soap came out white ??? olive oil soaps always have a dirty dark green color
I buy organic olive oil bars from Greece- can I ask why theirs are dark green as opposed to white? Thanks!
Hi I want to ask you something. You said let the soap cured for 1 to 12 months... way so much time? I heard it was only 30 days. Just I want to be sure... Thanks!
Soap at its simplest! This is a beautiful soap; your video is very relaxing! I love Castile soap, thanks for sharing! 🧼😊❤️🫒
My olive oil soap doesn't get any thicker than at the 15 minute mark. Save your time, give a water discount so it releases from the mold faster, and everyone will be good. Always turns out fine.
Water discount?
@@chriskelly509 using less water than normal, but always more than the weight of the lye
Honest concern, why does google mention Lye being bad for skin, but is used in most soap?
Lye is necessary for making soap. Any soap you've ever used was created using lye. The chemical reaction when lye and oils are mixed (saponification) creates a compound that is neither lye nor oil. It is soap.
Looks great! I am wondering... what happens if you don't cure it and use immediately?
When to know what the right amount curing time is?
İ was about the ask the same question is oven neccecery
I love how creamy and white it is! Did curing it in the oven help this?
What a wonderful video, I really enjoyed it. For how long does the soap remain usable after curing? I am asking this because it has no perservatives.
Thank you😊 It depends on the expiration date of the oils used.
Thanks for such a beautiful video. I want to learn why you put the soap into oven at 50 C?
Thank you! I wanted the soap to go through gel phase so I needed to keep it warm🙂
@@tellervo. thats cool. Thanks for this valuable information. Cheers.
@@tellervo.Do you use a seperate oven for the soap or Just regülar old cocking oven
機械化おわってつくるものは分量が全く違います。大体1リットルに小さじ1の苛性ソーダで、スグにドロドロになって、型入れして、10分ごには出来上がりですし、へんな反応も示さないので、水を牛乳にしたり、果汁にしたり、です。そもそも作ることも実際なくて、パソコンで作っちゃうか、大量にあるものを、使います。
Can we use it for face? Or its only for boday?
Hi! Can we grate this olive oil soap and dilute it with water to use it as a shampoo? Thank you!
After it's cured, yes. If you use it too soon it'll essentially be a sodium hydroxide relaxer to your hair which would not only potentially damage your hair but would be extremely dangerous to come in close contact with your skin and eyes.
@@bluebird1694 how long to cure ?
@@littlereptilian7580 at minimum a month
Mem nmaste🙏 cotan oil sop truck?
Kunjan Dave
How many days will it take to harden?
Can I use wood ash lye? If so how much? And any ideas on what to add for an abrasive? Ground coffee or sand?
What should be the PH level for homemade soap??
you had to blend it continually for 2 hours? :S
Me encantan tus jabones, este jabón de castilla se puede hacer con proceso en caliente? Lo tienes en algún vídeo y no lo veo? Me encantaría poderlo hacer, muchas gracias,🙏🏻🌷
ゼリー状になって固まらないんじゃないか、心配だったけど、全部固まりました。ガッチリ。
That is no 70.8 g of lye
5% lye discount
Ohhhhhhhh my god... Thank you so much for info that castille soap need two hours for very light trace... I was stressed out why my soap still liquid, when my soap will trace? 😂
May i know why do you need to cure for 1 to 12 months?
Lye=sodiumhydroxyde (caustic soda)no warning about getting seriously burned!
Love it, but 12 month is way to long i can't wait for it :(
The saponification process is complete at 4 - 6 weeks. After that, the soap is good to use.
This is the second vid I’ve seen straining the lye water. In 20 years of making soap, I’ve never done so. Js.
Do you do a shaving soap at all?
please
After 30 minutes, then 1 hour, then 2 hours of continuous stirring, manual or blender?
Help help! I think I put too much water in it. It will stay at the bottom and somehow soap isnt forming. What did I do wrong? How to fix this?
I have a question i don't have this kind of Scale would it work if if put just 70 gr of lye?
Hello can someone tell me how much lye if I want to use citric acid? I always hear others say this bar gets soggy and takes a long time to process.
You know I only have so much time to waste watching stirring and pouring.
Cure for 1-12 months? Video is a year old. So... is it cured yet? lol
One question.
Why didn't you preheat the oil to a similar temperature to the lye?
Adding sodium lactate speeds up the hardening of the bar.
Again great video ma'am,
I have one question, why did you keep mould in oven? Please explain this process
Thanks for sharing such beautiful videos.
Regards.
Thank you so much! I wanted to make sure that the soap would go through gel so that's why I put it in the oven. Usually it's done by pre heating the oven to 50 degrees celsius, putting the soap in the oven and then turning it off and letting the soap sit there for a day or so.
It also makes your colors pop if your using color.
🥱
Hi, i used olive oil, shea butter and coco butter it is getting garden before i pore into the mould
I want little watery batter
Do think we should add more distilled water?
I think it's a good idea to have a water discount when making castile soap. You can use more water if you want but there's really no need.
Extra virgin or the normal one ,which one do you use
is this soap foaming? I would like to test it for my body.
I really love your videos. ♥ ♥ ♥ Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you so much, you are an inspiration to me💕💕
Hi madam nice video ,madam this soap pH value ?
Hi mam this soap used for baby
Add any essential oil
Wow I didn’t know there was a cure time that long
Where did you get the music? I need to know lol
hello, these 2 hours are we constantly stirring?
Where did you get the stamp from? Is it a special type of stamp?
What soap was this laundry or bath?
Sorry, you lost me at lye
Juste magnifique
Is this soap conditioning? Also what phase would you add in actives/extracts/fruit powders? And at what percentage
U r great.please share liquid Castile soap
Did you try your Castile soap yet? 😂
Thanks for sharing...Gorgeous!!!
Is Castille soap suitable for intimate parts?
Thank you! I wouldn't recommend it.
The art of making soap.
Stirring for two hours? No way. There are recipes that are much faster that involves heating the olive oil. I think I will try that. Also faster curing time. I would also prefer someone speaking.
I just stirred it 15 minutes n molded it. In a night it's already solid. In 2 days i've unmolded.
I dont need speaking but captions are always appreciated
Excellent videos... Please keep up the good work.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but it looked done. Do I need to cure it for a full month? Lol Im doing a project for school and I need it to be cured a little sooner but I really wanna use olive oil lol
You need to let it cure for at least 2 months, otherwise it will dissolve in your hand at the first wash.
Four to six weeks of cure time is necessary for the saponification process to complete. It insures that there is no free lye or oil remaining, and is completely safe to use.
Ohhhh the recipe... Thank you :)!!!!
You’re videos are very helpful thank you
So soothing to watch! Loved it. Thank you
Thank you🥰
What is lay??
Beautiful ❤
Buen día y q es lye?
Wow! 🎉
Will this come out soft
i am wondering about the differences i am about to write.
in soapcalc here are the numbers for a 500gr. batch of castile:
500 gr. Olive oil. (with a 5 % SF)
190.0 gr water (distilled)
64.35 gr. lye (NaOH)
your numbers for a similar, 550 gr. batch:
550 gr. olive oil
85 gr. water (distilled)
70.8 gr lye
the difference between the lye quantities is slight...but the water differences are very different...is there an explanation that you can say about the water differences?
thanks for your input...kiitos!
i can see one thing, the higher % of lye to water. can you describe the why of that, please> :)
The first recipe has a 25% lye concentration and the second I think has a 45% lye concentration. I prefer soaping with a water discount because this way I can unmold the soap quicker, I have less issues with soda ash and the soap will become much harder sooner as there's less water that needs to evaporate out of the soap while it's curing🙂
@@tellervo.
Thank you Anna, while I was working on 1,000g loaves, I thought about the discount. It make perfect sense.
Happy new year!
Your videos are very pleasant.I like ur videos. I watch more more time one video. I have a question, can we add sodium lactate in castil soap?If yes what will be quantity ?
Thank you☺️ Yes, you can add 1-3% of the weight of the oils in your recipe.
@@tellervo. thanks dear
Do i need to heated the water first or just add lye in it?
Use cold water, as mixing in the lye causes an exothermic reaction, raising the temperature to nearly boiling.
❤️
Thank you... Art at it's best
♡♡♡♡♡
Simply amazing
Thanks!!!
🙋👌👍
Hi,
Will it dry out the skin like coconut oil does ？
Castile soap is known to be one of the most gentle soaps
For how long do we have to cure this soap?
In the video it says anywhere between 1 to 12 months. So, 1 month is the minimum.
Can put soap in oven ?? And we are not having oven, give any alternative mam..
It's just optional
one possibility, is after the batter is poured into the mould, cover it well and insulate with extra towels. it is a method i use with column pours.
What is the pouring temperature of lye solutions to oil?
I poured the lye solution right after I measured the temperatures with the infrared thermometer shown in the video. The lye solution was 52 °C and the olive oil was 22 °C
Use Water discount?
Yes
So excited to view my workbook and recipe book!
🥰🥰
Can I add stearic acid
Lye is a base. Acids and bases neutralize each other, so adding any type of acid will have a negative effect on the process. Likely, the liquid would not saponify or solidify.
I love it, I like how it was silent!
Its lovely. Can I use pomace olive oil?
Thank you! Yes🙂
It’s what I use, and doesn’t take long to bring to trace. Still a great gentle soap.
How long are you going to cure them for? Great video :)
I think I'm going to try to wait for 6 months😊
@@tellervo. Hi, why is the curing time 6 months rather than 4 weeks?
@@tallyjacobi5247 its better aterr a yr for olive oik
Great video 👍
Thank you☺️
Lovely! 💚🌿
Thank you🥰

Thank you💕
hi,please what is the difference between castile soap and marseille soap?
Well they can be very similar and made out of similar ingredients. Castile soap is always 100% olive oil. Marseille soap means that the soap is produced in the Marseille region of France and it can contain other oils than olive oil too.
