- Whipped rebatch soap "take 2". I'm using up all my soap shreds left over from beveling batches and batches of soap. This is a "no-waste" way to make every ounce of soap count 😉 #whippedsoap #soap #homemadesoap #recycle
I love to create good for you, handcrafted soaps using the cold process method of soap making.

I use to make soaps years ago stopped after falling into hard times and depression. Finding inspiration on your channel your soap is beautiful ♥️🌺☀️
This would be a great way to make some masculine soaps! Maybe use a dark/midnight blue or even black shade and a strong masculine fragrance oil that would easily mask any leftover fragrances from the scraps. Wouldn't even bother piping on top. Just a rustic, manly bar of soap. It's an idea 🤣
You are incredible making something beautiful out of scraps. Like I always say you are the best.
I never would have thought to pipe hot process or rebatch soap. Great job, Ellen!
Thank you, these were fun to make!
I agree
Thank you for showing how we can use scrapes of soap and not be wasteful. I remember my grandmother grating small dried bits of soap bars and melting them in hot water to wash woollen jumpers. We used a very plain soap and nothing was wasted in our house.
Ps that colour is so pretty.
Now I know what to do with my soap scraps,lol. I hate to waste them. I actually took some of my shavings at work and use it as one time use. Thanks for sharing.
💕 yes! I don't like to waste anything, especially lovely soap shreds 😊
I love watching your authentic passion for soap making. I love learning from your simple techniques, you are such an inspiration. Keep Rocking!
Thank you so much!
@@EllenRuthSoap you're very Welcome. ♥️♥️♥️
The re-batch I made last time looked like a gorgeous granite countertop! Beautiful!
I know some people don’t like rebatched soap but I think the lather is very luxurious. I love them
You're right, it always has fantastic lather❣️
I enjoyed the whole video ❤️ very pretty soap scrap bars! I enjoy your visiting with us like we are with you 😊
-Shonna
Thanks! I feel like I'm chatting with friends🥰
Eelen is not ugly, love to see the rebach, and great tips.
🥰 thanks
I watched this super early this morning and it gave me the courage to rebatch a calla lily soap that didn't come out.
My soap isn't shredded but I chopped it into smaller chunks. I'm seeing how long it's going to take while watching a movie.
Great use of those soap scraps, isn't it exciting to create by re-using? This is beautiful, well done
Thanks! I don't like to waste💕
I just made some yesterday. I used very little water and about 3/4 can of coconut milk. Turns out great. The same size crockpot you show.
I love the Victorian Rose color it came out. Beautiful! A tip perhaps, I add TD to my initial water to help lighten the batter, so when I add color, I get closer to what I am aiming for. I usually make whipped soaps with my scraps and then felt little animals around the bars, for the little kiddies. They're animals and they float and clean all at once. But love that you piped the top! Love these! 👍💕
Thanks Cheryl, that's a great tip! And I love the animal idea💕
This is beautiful. I just tried my first rebatch today and I wish I had seen this video before. I am new to soaping and you are very informative! Thank you!
🥰💕
When I saw that red going in I thought we were headed for "meat soap." Nope! It is gorgeous. This is the best rebatch I've seen.
🤣 "meat soap"😂
Rustic brick soap! I love it!!
That looks so good , rebatch or not! And piping "hot process" 😲 mind blown!!
Thanks!🥰
Great to see the whole rebatch process including tips...and piping on top just elevates an ordinary soap bar into a pretty one! Great idea thank you for sharing 💕
Glad you enjoyed it!
Anxious to try this!
they are beautiful! They look like fudge! Yumm
Nice!❤ I love it!
Loved this video!! Very nice to watch the changes along with you! Beautiful soap!😊
Thanks so much! 😊
I love watching your videos. I'm just getting into cold and hot processed soap making. So many cool ideas!
Soaping is so fun and creative!
You are TOP NOTCH in every category‼️
Thanks!
Loved the video. I have only done one soap scap rebatch and it turned out awful and I haven't tired it again. I think after this video it will be worth a second try. Thank you!
I am right there with you. I think you are doing a great job.
😊 Thanks!
I just came across this video because I've only recently heard about hot process soap, but now I'll be diving into all your videos 😊
If you do another batch at some point you could colour and scent it really deep chocolate brown and it would look like chocolate mousse! Yum
Welcome! Oh, I love the chocolate mousse idea, I'll keep that in mind😘
The color came out great! I love the front stamp! :)
😊 thank you!
Those look great! I love the no-waste angle. And how fun to pipe on top, although I hope you didn't burn your hands. The little stars added a nice touch.
Thank you🥰 It wasn't too hot, just very warm, so it was okay..
I learn so much from you! These are just beautiful - I've always been afraid to branch out in this area, but now I feel a bit more encouraged :-)
Thank you!
Thanks 🥰
Love rebatching soap scrapes. Great video Ellen.
Thanks! Recycling at it's best😘
Those are actually very nice. I tried to rebatch some scraps that had a lot of purple in it. Oh they turned out terrible, lol! It’s just one of those things you gotta keep working at. 😊
Thanks! Yes, rebatch is different every time..😅
WOW for a rebating that’s looks beautiful I love it and the color is nice too.
Thank you! 🤗
Really nice! :) I have seen rebatch soaps before, but never any that are whipped smooth. Love this idea and will keep it in mind for my scraps and other CP soap batches that might not work out in a way I would want them to. Thank you for sharing your work and great ideas! As a beginner, I appreciate your videos so very much!
You are so welcome!
Jogging
I love the color and piping!
Vamos Ellen, tú puedes!!😂😂😂
That’s a nice work! expecting to watch a next video 😊👍🏻👍🏻
🥰 thanks!
I have watched your videos many time now and you always amaze me in soap making. I have not tried CP from scratch, but I just ordered a bag of Rebatch from a vendor that I have used in the past. I think I will try your method of whipping to make some bars. If the whipping method is not for making bar soap, please let me know. Love this idea, thank you!💖💖🥰
Just love it!! I am following your steps right now. I hope end it up fine 🤞🏼
Thanks!
Looks really good for hot process type soap
Ellen Ruth, you commented, when you were adding coloring, that you could use some help, suggestions.
I will say, you did a fine job!
Rebatching seems to be somewhat about the adventure that comes with the process.
I will share what I used to do with rebatched scrap soap .
1. I would add no color or scent. Make it into a loaf.
Cut into chunks, squares or whatever shape.
A) Then use in a complimentary new batch.
Such as:
a) make into mudroom soap bars, usually square or at least thick.
These are great to wash hands, soap a rag to wipe off mud or dirt from boots. Or soap up a scrub brush to clean mudroom stuff, buckets, garden tools, etc.
2. I would make into coffee garden soap bars. Add thick dark instant coffee, for scent & color Or add scent & color to resemble coffee. Coffee grounds are a great addition.
3. Make into a activated charcoal bar soap color it gray, black, or other color with a swirl.
Thank you.
This turned out beautifully!
Thanks for the great ideas!
A *compendium of everything NOT to do when soap making!* Yet somehow she pulled it off and came up with a wonderful soap! 😲😘
And *remained safe* while doing so!!!🙃🙃🙃🥰
I LIKE THE LOOK
when you mix green & pink scraps to rebatch - it turns the batter to ugly brown! I usually try not to mix those color scraps with the main bucket saved - and if there are any chunks of either color just remove 1 before starting to cook! Your soaps are always looking good Ellen - love your videos
LOVELY! A big "CIAO" from Italy!
🥰💕
Nicely done Ellen! Awesome job!
🥰 Thank you!
I love your soap scrap bucket! I need to get around to that myself.... it would be super handy!
Yes, it's handy and I just keep adding to it until it's full😆
@@EllenRuthSoap i have a sour cream tub to clean out Lol
I think they turned out really pretty!
Thank you💕
It looked like brownies to me❤
My family and I don’t waste nothing. Those scraps are money spent so yep use them. Works great like any other soap you make. I would of put a chocolate FO in them because it really looks like chocolate
Hi, Ellen Ruth, I am Ruth Ellen and I really enjoyed your video tfs
Hi Ruth Ellen (great name 😉) thank you 💕
Last time I rebatched, my eldest daughter's stepchildren wanted some personalized soaps, so I gave them their choice/s...the girls chose "Elmo" molds and a hot cinnamon fragrance, but wanted it whipped...🙄 hubby and the one poor son of the bunch want something much more manly...so went with an evergreen scent and a a very light green, again well whipped, and THAT came out smelling like original Irish Spring scented with all the same tints of green and white streaks as that same original bar..and was sliced into squared bars, even better, having been whipped, they were allowed to cure for another extra 2 weeks given the weather gremlins that inhabit Southern Ontario...that particular soap rebatch ended up sealing the edges super well and DID actually float! Which all involved enjoyed, at least long enough to learn to get the bars out of the water and draining FAST! BECAUSE OTHERWISE IT MELTS JUST AS FAST AND QUICKLY DISAPPEARS down the drain...and despite Nanna's notes can't be easily replicated...so they were out of luck as far as replacement...🤷♀️😘 not intentional, but lesson well learned. And honestly, went a long way to keeping their natural grandmothers in a much less threatened frame of mind.👏👏🤷♀️🤪 and their natural MOTHER too. Sometimes being too good at the strangest things can wreak havoc for the oddest of reasons.
My daughter actually thanked me for NOT warning them about the soap melting if not properly taken care of! I couldn't have, I didn't know either!
Apparently "mom" was not entirely at ease with the new dynamic...and that was making for a few rough waves at times..between ALL members of the family.🥺
These bars are beautiful
Thank you!
Great save on the color, I like it!
🤣 Thanks!
You are so funny! 😆
I like the front stamp
💕👍
Quite beautiful!!!
That was really enjoyable and useful!
Hahahahahaha You my dear are absolutely delightful to watch. With that fourth addition of colorant I was laughing right along with you. And viola beautiful soap!!!! And found my brain had already started writing a commercial to promote you and you floating soaps along with childhood flashback of searching all through the bathwater trying to find the soap. Lol
Glad you enjoyed it🤣
Thanks Ellen for sharing .
You're so welcome🥰
The last rebatch I watched you do was the floating soap
Yes 👍 this one was denser and didn't end up floating much...
Hah ! Same here.
I loved loved loved this!! Thank you so much 😊
"Fragrance be a stinker on you"! Heeheehee
I love how the color turned out on this batch. What did you sprinkle on top AND…could you do a short video on how you clean up your tools afterward if there is anything special we need to know. I’m wanting to try my hand at soap making. I’m watching so many of your videos to learn the correct way before giving it a try. Thank you for sharing your craft and love for soap.
Thanks for watching! I just use soap and water to clean up all my dishes and tools after soaping.
Wow I never knew we could do that with soap left overs. Thanks so much for showing this. I’m learning so much from you! Merry Christmas to you and your family Ellen . Looking forward to seeing you soap 2021. 🎄💕🥂
Thanks! And Merry Christmas to you too!
Excelente¡¡
Love it! Thanks for sharing 🥰
😊💕
Looks like a cross between chocolate cake and Red Velvet Cake. Yummy! The piping on top is a perfect finishing touch too! Beautiful!!😍
Thank you for sharing!!
You're welcome💕
gorgeous!
🥰
Hey Ms Ellen, have you ever tried taking your soap shavings through a food processor and making the shavings tiny before heating them up? What do you think that would do? -Naty
Yes, I've ground them up into tiny bits, they do melt smoother.
Hi Ellen these turned out really pretty! Love the video! What did you spray your stamper with?
Isopropyl alcohol
How did you figure out how much you need to put in a pipe? It was just perfect amount!
It's a bit of a guess, but I've been doing this a while...
The saying goes; (or went, yes i was around when it was first invented!😲)reduse, any reuse,recycle...seems to me, youre keeping #2 alive and kicking! Too many people forget all about #s 1 and 2...just concentrate on#3 consider themselves good citizens.🤪. Could learn A LOT from a who challenged themselves to restrict themselves to producinging only 1 kitchen catcher sized bag of garbage for an entire YEAR(a certain family in B.C.challenged themselves to fill *only* a kitchen catcher sized bag of garbage for an entire year! family in a year there are 4 of them).
Why not!? That also coming from mixed oil for benefits ro skin. Smart one Madame!
Thank you!
Thanks for making this. I have a batch (cold process) that didn't cut through w/o crumbing. I am going to try this re-batch! Also, where did you get your personalized stamp made? Thank you!
The stamp link is in the description box😉
Make sure your crumbly bar isn’t lye heavy! You could try re batching and adding more oil... or re batch and then set it aside for six months or so to give excess lye lots of time to cure out.
Did you use sodium lactate or salt? That can cause crumbly texture!
@@thebadpoet Thank you. I've re-batched now and added some beeswax (that I forgot to add in the first time!) and poured into molds. THIS time it didn't crumble as bad-(just on the edges) but still isn't what I normal see. It might of been that the lye was hotter than the oils when I poured the first time. (Lye-120 /Oil 90) Or as you suggest- that it is lye heavy. I didn't have any Sodium Lactate- to add in-but did add in some milk just to be able to mix it- in the re-batch. This is the first time I've made Olive Oil soap- so I was thinking it was that I added a small amount of Avocado oil in the mixture- that is only were I deviated from the recipe-but kept the equations the same. I will try it all again!
Hi, I make soap for my family now, iused to sell . What about if you separate 1/4 of soap and add charcoal mixed well and them swirl with the rest of the soap! Just an idea.
Question 🙋♀️- how long does it take to dry the soap ????? How do you dry the soap ??? Dehydrator ? How long ???
And no offense but I was comparing the color of the bars to those reddish tombstones 🪦 at cemetery :.:
I know I know but I just HAD TO BRING THAT UP …❤😊
I set my bars out to air dry, just some place that has good air circulation.
Newbie here, i luuuv this and so happy i came across ur channel. Useful tips all the way ❤
My i ask what is in the spray bottle.
Thnx for sharing ❤
Welcome!! I'm spritzing the top with isopropyl alcohol to make the glitter stick better.
@@EllenRuthSoap Hi again, a question please, can i use ethanol alcohol instead of isopropyl. The maximum grade i have access to is ethanol 90 degree. Your feedback is appreciated, thank you 🙏
What do you mean ugly bars of soap? They're gorgeous and I love the color!
Color looks great to me. Looks like a hot cocoa.
Next time yiu rebatch, try using a LOT less heat, and *alcohol* for your liquid , it'll naturally evaporate.. speeding up your drying/curing process.😉🙃
That's great advice! Thanks!
Why did you add powdered coconut milk in beginning? I make goat milk soap and was looking to reuse my shreds. Also where do you get your stamp
The coconut milk is just a fun additive, you don't need to add it.. There's a link for the stamp in the description box.
What do you spray on your stamp before using it ? Thanks for the video, I have way too much scraps at the moment 😂
It's isopropyl alcohol spritz👍
I just tried this rebatching some of my soap and I find the bars have a sort of spongy rubbery consistency. Is this because they were whipped? It was my first time doing a hot process rebatch, I’m not sure whats normal!
They do feel a bit soft at first due to the extra liquid. If you let them dry out for several week, they're great. This technically isn't a HP, but a rebatch...
Love your videos! I dont use fragrance nor coloring on my soaps so when they dry I have some of that soap ash, is alcohol enough to prevent it from happening? Or Im I going to have to use color to keep the soap pretty for sale? Also how can I make my soap last longer? I use mine to shower with and they last like a week. P.S. I would have used blue or green color on this soap you made I think that would have been easier due to the mix beeing a nit dark already.
Love love your videos! Thank you!!
Milcia Lopez if you use a water discount that should help with the ash on top. You can steam any ash off the soaps if you have a clothes steamer. Do you use soap Calculator for your recipe, you can check hardness of your recipe there and it needs 4-6 weeks cure time for CP soap which is where excess water leaves the bars
I would double check your water amount. Also, you can steam or rinse off your loaf with hot water (then let it dry) before cutting, that will get all the ash off. Thanks for the color suggestion😘
@@tanyabonnett4174 I've never ised the soap calculator. I will try that. Thank you
@@EllenRuthSoap thank you so much for the info.👍😊
@@milcialopez1382 Every soap recipe should go through the Soap Calculator, its pretty easy once you get used to it.
Hello! What does it mean a floaty soap? Please. Greetings from Argentina
If you "whip it" enough it is very light and will float in the water and not sink😉
If I were to make a rebatch soap with soap that came out chalky and crumbly would I add more oils and water to correct it?
If you did a pH test and it’s not lye heavy, you can just add a bit more water or glycerin.
@@EllenRuthSoap perfect! Thank you 💜
Hi
I came across your channel and my last batch I swapped olive oil for almond oil and it turned out a bit soft so if I rebatch them do you have any advice
Mandy 🇬🇧
Olive and Almond have different SAP values, I would check the pH, if it's good then rebatching should be fine👍
@@EllenRuthSoap thanks it’s been curing for 3 weeks now and still a bit soft but will check ph
Cheers
Can anybody tell me whether not if it’s possible to make whipped shampoo soap from scratch?
How long is this process, and can you lighten a rebatch soap with titanium dioxide, if yes, how? Thank you!😊
This took about 45 min total.. I would premix the TD to get it smooth before adding to the batter, after its all melted.
@@EllenRuthSoap thank you!
What happens if you do add a bit too much fluid - it would whip much better no? And won't it just evaporate anyways? Just curious...I'm so new at soap making still.
If you add too much liquid, it just takes longer to dry out. My earlier rebatch video shows that.. The soap was fine, but it needed to sit much longer.
a baby diaper hahaha i've changed 1 too many hahahah looks great :)
😁
Does food coloring ruin wash cloths?
I don’t know? Food coloring isn’t for soap making😉
@@EllenRuthSoap right...I saw another person say they used food coloring in their soaps. I realize all soap makers don't do the same thing. Thanks for responding.
I love all your wonderful soap creations💜love watching your videos. I’m new to this journey, and was wondering what labeling website or how do you make your labels? I’m trying to stay within budget & not get to crazy & spend hundreds on labels etc. Lol so if you could help me out and give me some options, I would be SUPER grateful ☺️ Keep up the great work BTW💜💜 Thx again!
Thank you! I make labels on Avery and Online labels😉
what can you substitute coconut milk powder with (ie, if you can't find the powder, can you use liquid coconut milk instead?)
You could use any powder, like goat milk or even buttermilk powders... The liquid would work great, just sub the water for it, so it doesn't get too wet..
What is the float test
When a soap floats on top of the water, and doesn't sink.
Since this is a mixture of a bunch of soaps, I would've just made the soap black, because black is a mixture of all the colours!
That’s a great idea😊
What is that sparkly powdery thing you sprinkle on the soap batter called ? 😃😬
It’s bio glitter😉
