How simple, straight forward, basic and down to earth is this video, thank you tenfold. I've looked at so many so called HP soaping for beginners that have been a complete turn off. Please continue keeping it simple, it's refreshing.
Thank you for making this video. I've watched so many videos on how to make hot process soap and this is the best one. You made it so easy to understand. 👏
I hot process exclusively and it's always interesting to see how differently people do it. Mine never separates and goes straight to vaseline stage, unless I use milks. I also never stir till the end and turn off the crock pot once a third of the soap batter gelled and let the rest of the heat cook it. My soap is very fluid with this technique and I can pretty much pour it into the mold.
We are lucky to have so many options when it comes to creating hot process soap.
Wow I'd love to see a video of that. My original recipe, when I was first learning, I didn't have to stir it down. I let it cook for about 1.25 hours and it was at the Vaseline stage and I had to plop it into the mold. Once I started adding additional oils, not sure which one cased it, I then had to stir it down every 10 minutes or it would 'boil' over.
Search for "how to make hot process soap" and "A faster way to make hp soap" by Elizabeth Lemp here on TH-cam. She does it very similar to the way I do it. I never have issues with it boiling over and I don't have to constantly watch it. My soap turns out very moist also.
Wow thank you! May you receive 3 fold the kindness you have shown me.
Species710 you're welcome :) I hope the videos are helpful to you. If you have any questions feel free to message me, I'll be happy to help.
Thanks so much for your teaching!!! You are incredible master!!!
Blessings from Spain ❤
Thank you for the simple easy to follow instructions for simpletons like me...
Thanks you SO much, Cathy! I sure wish I had watched this video at 3:00 a.m. this morning! I used a different recipe than I usually use and I couldn't decide if it was done! I'm going to back to the tried and true Bastille recipe!
Next time you will get it perfect :)
I've made it twice before & it came out fabulously, this is a wonderful tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing your divine skills! :D
Thank you Cathy, I use a mixer too. It makes it smoother too. I hp a lot of my soap. Did do full water? I do. I like the butters at the end as well. Someone asked about fruit. I freeze it and add to lye is that ok. I do my pumpkin and it works great. I never thought about after lye. Thank you I will try the coloring I like that! Yeah I am so happy you did this. Beautiful bar!
I used full water too.
Extremely inormative ty
Feel more comfortable to make homemade soaps with little hands, little kids, little more safer to make soap my opinion gives me more confidence to make homemade soaps one if these days hoping near future!
Another great video. Thank you Cathy. Can't wait to see Curds & Whey.
Curds + whey coming up... minus Miss Muffet :)
When u put the mixtures into your crock pot, do u use it on high or low temp?
I am looking to make shaving soap. Thanks. Nelson
NoUnions HateTeamstrs 986 She said "medium" heat, but I've learned the hard way to use "low" heat. A lot of it depends on your crock pot. (Older crockpots don't heat up as hot as newer ones.)
I'm just curious when doing the hot process soap can you add sodium lactate to the recipe? I hear the sodium lactate makes the hot process soap work better for pouring into the silicone molds instead of the log (wood) mold? And at what step if you do add? Thank you for all your help. And will you be doing a video on how to use sodium lactate in hot process too?
I do LOVE your tutorials! I really do. I have learnt so much from them :) Thank you
Hello, How much of the essential(fragrance) oil should i use I like lavender and vanilla thank you and great video!!
Can I use aloe vera water instead of distilled water ?
Could you please explain to me why am having soda ash around all my soap and what should I do to wipe them away and also to avoid them? I have done 4 different batches of soaps, comes out nicely but after 3 days, it will have soda ash all over. Thanks
Hi
After putting in mold, spritz top with 90% isopropyl alcohol aka rubbing alcohol. May spritz mold too before putting in mold. Try that!
How do I make hp with glycerin and alcohol your video's are the only ones I can follow, I can get anything higher than 37. 5% alcohol which is vodka will it work also have cherry brandy does that work it smells nice, ps I have made pine tar and 4 thieves just waiting 4 weeks pps thank you so much for your videos I'm addicted to soap making ❤️❤️❤️
I just started making soap. Love your videos very informative. I have a question. I have ideas for my own recipes. I have just 1 question. How do I figure out how much of each oil I need. For instance the recipe you are doing here. How did you know how much Olive oil vs Castor vs Coconut oil to use.
If you look to the right of the recipe it has percentage rates for each oil. You plug that in to soap calc along with the size of you batch. The soap calc does the rest.
Nm on the nutrition questions. Video answered it. ( i forgot u dont add super fats untill right before molding).
At what temperature is the lye water and oils mixed in the hot process soap making?
what temperature setting is the crockpot on throughout the soapmaking process?
Hi very good video
How many days to cure hot processed soap ? Reply please.
Can you talk about dual lye hp soap?
It seams that crock pots are widely used in the US but in Europe we barely know them
Thank you !
do you think olive pomace oil makes a difference?
Thank u for ur wonderful videos
I loced soap making because of u.
But i have a problem i dont have a crock pot and cant find it in my country, how can i make hot process soap over the stove? I have electric stove.
What is ur advice please?
Use a double boiler
Use a double boiler
I have question can you freezers distilled water that you measure out then added to your lye.
Absolutely!
Is the difference between cold process and hot process in the fact that you can use the soap right away with hot process, as opposed to waiting 4-6 weeks with the cold?
Yes when you hot process you cook the soap and evaporate enough water to use it after 24hours and cutting it right away. It is better to wait 4days to a week if you want a harder bar. Hope this helps you.
how long does it usually take to thicken and get a trace. I have been mixing for ageeessss
how much fragrance should i use?
why do you add castor oil?
Thanks for the video! Can we hot process a fruit purée soap or milk soap?
You can but keep in mind that the heat may cause it to discolor.
Just FYI, I used to do goat's milk soap via the slow cooker and it caused it to be a tan color. I loved it but many are picky about soap and want it to be candy colored, so it's up to your tastes.
I see that part of the safety equipment is a mask. Question: Can people with respiratory diseases (such as asthma, COPD) make either the HP or CP soaps safely? And if so, what type of mask would be worn during the process?
You get an industrial type mask you should be fine or if you have any friends that work at the hospital a N95 mask is good as well but find someone who does like construction. My friend has asthma as well he does construction.
Thank you for your video...sometimes I like to make HP It is cool looking and you can use it a lot sooner. :)
Me too (:You can use cp or hp soap once saponification is complete. The main reason for a longer cure time with cp is to allow the water to dissipate out.
Can I use beeswax as a super fat?
wow
Lastima q no estan en español ppr q no entiendo
I was wondering why you aren't suppose to add water to lye?
Lye reacts with water. When you're adding lye to water, the reaction is more mild. Adding water to lye can make a very violent reaction which can fizz and boil right out of your container. A very hot and dangerous caustic volcano of lye solution foaming and pouring all over your counter while giving off rough chemical fumes is not a fun thing to have going on in your kitchen, I promise!
So what's the difference between hp and cp in the final product?
In the final product, mostly is the look and you can use hp soap as soon as it cool and unmolded, whereas cp soap you cannot use it for six to 8 weeks.
I believe she meant in HP soap you can use it as soon as it's cool and unmolded but in COLD PROCESS (CP not HP) you need to cure it to harden it as well as neutralize the lye.
I'm confused about how long it takes to 'cook' this recipe. According to the video the soap was done after 1hour(15-20minutes for separation phase stage, 15-20 minutes for apple sauce phase and 15-20 minutes for Vaseline phase). This differs from other sources that indicate a longer time of 2-3 hrs. Please clarify
Thanks!
IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE HP SOAP WITHOUT A CROCK POT?
+Giulia Songini You can put it in the oven and just keep stirring the same.
Why is there no translation for the video?
"soaping101" what was the mass of the soap you made in this video...???????

You are an amazing teacher! Easy to follow guide, and you have a very pleasant voice. Thank you for sharing
I would like to thank you for your classes! I have watched (and study) them for two months before I was able to make my first real (not melt & pour) soap. I was much more interested in HP then CP. So I first started with HP and I have now made 5 patches of HP and 4 patches of CP.
My first batch was a HP Lavender & Honey and instead of adding Coco or Shea I had Cupuacu Butter. Turned out Awesome!!!! Thanks to your classes.
My first CP patch was your Avocuco Soap. It will not be ready until Sept. 26.
This got me going in a whirlwind... I made a CP Carrot & Cucumber Soap (keeping true to the Avocuco method), a CP Coconut Milk Soap; very white may I add. I even made a CP Echinacea Tea & Aloe soap.
I guess what I'm trying to say is; Thanks for setting a fire under my butt.
Hugs & Kisses
I am so very excited for you!
What is advantage of hot process more than cold process
What is the advantage hot process more than cold process
Mohammed Iqubal MP HP is ready to use immediately. It doesn’t need to cure but it still is better to let HP sit for a few weeks to harden. Also because all of the fats are saponified while cooking your super fats will retain their properties. In CP the bar is continuing to saponifying the fats while they are sitting or curing and you just don’t know what oils if any are left from the super-fat. That’s what I think anyway. I hope I explained that. There might be a video here that explains the differences better than I.
You added supper fat of 1/2 oz of cocoa butter. what other super fat cold you of added? I'm trying to understand superfast.
This is a great, simple, to-the-point hot process tutorial. I was intimidated by the other videos I saw, but this one encouraged me to try it today. Thank you!
so agreed, I am excited to try this.
Thank you so much for your detailed instructions. These videos are invaluable to beginners. This video helped me make my first successful hp batch with a rich lovely lather. I did modify it jist a tad by adding after saponification 2 ice cubes of goat's milk and .6 oz cocoa butter and found that it is alittle soft after 24 hrs. Is that normal or can I expect it to harden more as it has more dry time?
This is a really great hot process video. I never thought about adding something at the end to superfat or using a mixer to incorporate color. Thanks for all the new tips!
I followed this technique to the letter and I must say that the marbling is amazing when the soap is wet. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you SO much for this video tutorial, very helpful! The only question I have, is how much fragrance is used in this recipe? I'm not sure if I missed that part in the video or if it just wasn't mentioned. Thank you in advance
Thankyou very much for your videos. They have helped me with my hobbie of soap making.
You are very kind to share your knowledge and experience.
Blessings to you x
Hey there. I've been greedily absorbing any and all information I can find on the art and science of soaping for the past year, including watching most of your videos. Tonight I've just finished my very first batch of hp soap and it went perfectly! It's unscented and made with oils I had in the house, but seems to lather and cleanse beautifully as I witnessed while washing up my tools and crock pot. Thanks for being the wellspring of information that you are and keep the videos coming.
This is the only video that explains thoroughly the hot method and I’ve watched tooooons of videos!! Thank you!!
wow you are so generous with your soap recipes and tutorials. Bless you lots!
I love this video!! Thank you! Just one quick question. My crock pot only has high, low and keep warm. Which should I use?
+Barbara Ayscue I've used high and low. High I watch it closer so it doesn't burn but do it if I'm in a hurry and low you can leave it for 10-15 mins. at a time and not worry about it burning.
Hi? Is this all possible to use a normal stove or bain marie when making hot process soap? I don't have a crock pot.
Catarina Tang I would go ahead and buy a crock pot. You don't even need a fancy one. They have several for $20 or less at stores like Walmart.
Catarina Tang although I did find a post on Pinterest where a woman used a double boiler for hers once. If you think you can keep the heat pretty even, it shouldn't be that big of a problem.
@@catarinatang980 I got mine for 5 dollars at a thrift store!
The best video I've seen so far. Thanks so much!
You're really good at what you do. :)
Thanks! I've been wanting to try hot process for a while. Now I think I'm ready after watching you!
Fantastic, give it a go!
Hello! I've read that different brands of essential oils have different effects on soap and that some can ruin a batch. Which brand do you use and recommend?
👍🏻🙏😉👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 thanks you are so kind love your videos
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much I'm sharing your video!
what's the best way to make soap if you don't have a slow cooker? bain-Marie?
Thank you for all these videos! I'm looking to start my hobby and utilizing soaps I only make. Question, is just preference in regards to why someone would us HP vs CP? Thank you again! You're amazing!
Thanks for getting back to me so fast :-)
How do I convert my CPS recipe to use as a HPS recipe? Do I even need to do that. I'm a member of your soaping 101 tutorial group but it says that it was archived and I can no longer ask questions on the Facebook page.
You know what I don't understand? Why is it that you only calculate the oils when determining the weight of your soap when you'll be adding the lye water to the oils? The lye will change the molecular structure of the oils through saponification but the weight of the water remains the same, does it not? Or is it that during the saponification process the weight of the oils and lye water changes... becomes lighter? I'm thinking "scientifically" here.
I tried this for my first hot process soap. I didn’t add the additional super fat and I added baby powder fragrance oil. The results were fantastic. Thank you for sharing
San Taylor with the same ingredients here? When you did add bay leaves? Thank you
dandy d baby powder fragrance no bay leave
Shout out idol
Your amazon crock pot link takes you to a bottle of Witch Hazel instead of a crock pot.
my soapmixture is a gold color . before I even added any mica powder. so its not very nice looking.
Thank you for doing these tutorials. You explain things very well. I appreciate it
.
That's a great video. I need to know hot processe of laundry soap making
Do you have to use a separate crock pot and mixer, or can you wash it well and continue to use for food?
Oh yeah, still waiting for you to put your soap up for sale. I want my autographed too please.
Only if you send one in return.
Awesome gonna give this a try! Is that a 2 or 3 pound mold...
more revolting colours, why not plain and healthy looking?
the batch is not reaching phase two. still looks like pudding.
Do you have maximum temperature? And do you keep some super fat %
First, I love your videos. I've learned and used a lot of your information so far, which leads me to this. I have tried twice to make hot process in the crock pot. My first batch turned into a glumpy mess and then hit the "Vaseline" stage, I molded it and it came out really nice, but my second batch I used about half of the amount of ingredients as I was just trying a new scent. This never went through any of the stages, it was like oatmeal the whole time. I again just molded it to see what would happen, and it seems to have come out fine, but I worry because it isn't doing any of the things in your video. Any thoughts? I'd really appreciate your feedback, I don't want to waste an ounce of this stuff! Thanks you so much!
Hot process doesn't always follow all of the phases of soapmaking. Sometimes a phase goes by so quickly that you don't even see it unless you're staring at the pot the entire time, and sometimes you skip phases entirely, and sometimes you're stuck on one phase almost the whole time. The important thing is recognizing the ending phase, and making sure your soap passes the tongue-zap test.
nice video, i m attempting to hot process today, i have always used CP for years, so itoday im braving the seaven seas of HP soap making. I have 1 question though, just about every video i have seen on HP on youtube, the hobbyist throws in a chunk of superfat after the saponification is completed. SO my Big question is how much superfat do i add at the end?
all of the lye and fragrance cals i use do have superfatting levels usually 5% - I USUALLY GO 6% BUT NOTHING IS MENTIONED about putting a chunk in later. is this a tip ? please explain, thanks!!
what heat setting do you cook the soap please
First of all, congratulations on your videos! I always follow you with pleasure! I would like to know if I use the crok pot for soap, do you ruin? Can I use it to cook food?
Thank you so much and keep it up !!!!
How long could it be cured please, tnx
One week
Do you have a video that details how much essential oils to add?
Best hot process soap video I have seen! I saved it to refer to later!
I thoroughly enjoyed this! Thanks so much for yet another wonderful & relaxing video x
And I so enjoy your videos Tiggy :)
thank you! x
I am making my hot process soap today and just experienced the volcano eruption...........LOL
Thank you for your videos,I started about 2 yesterday ago with your cp soap videos which helped me so much,,but I was just feeling I didn't want to wait the 4 weeks to cure so I have been making less soap,,maybe the way I do things but I was using so many different bowels spoons it got tiring getting everything out,I don't have a specific area in my home to just do soap,,so I have been contemplating HP soap,,I'm doing my first one as I write this watching your video,and have to say less bowels and less works for me even though It seems the same process I'm liking this HP better,,,Thank you again fir making my life so much easier,,

Hello Ma'am.
I'm newbie. I'm learning more and more about soaps from your videos.
Your videos are very informative.
I would like to ask you one question. What is difference between Hot process soaps and cold process soaps? Regarding quality and demand.
Many Thanks for the videos.
Regards.
to soaping101.com my questions are . I was making this last night I doubled the recipe.I use distilled ice water plus basin ice water under the lye water the temperature never went passed 86. AS I LEFT IT SITTING AFTER WATER WAS clear. It never fumed up on me .I used all protected gear .I had to heat the basin water up to get the temp to rise up. then the oil temp was 138 taking to long to drop took some oil out n put it in my freezer 5-10 mins. well when both temps lye water was 112 oil 114 I started to get it to trace . meanwhile no fuming during this process .I had mask n eye wear off but still my gloves n long sleeve sweater.after that left it on low to cook 20 min I was in out my room n the fumes was unreal. No one ever said on any tutorial that this would or could happen . Every1 has always said It would fume during water n lye mix. I go so sick couldn't breathe opened my room window up .I had to clean up my mess in out my room my face, eyes throat nose felt like it was on fire. It was hard to breathe my lungs felt like they was going to explode throat burning and stomach also disturbed nausea. I turned it off after I stirred it again butcouldn't take the fumes unplugged it took the cock pot put it on my balcony and I went to ER was there for 4 hrs. sent home I still feel some buring in nose n stomach. The batch is still on my balcony can this batch be salvaged and did I do anything wrong by heating lye water back up with hot water in basin under lye water , and cooling 1/4 of the oil in the freezer to cool oil down.Please I need help I've in vested $400.00 buying all these supplies to make soap. Help thank you Nancy
Hi Cath, You are brilliant! I have enjoyed every video you have made thus far. Thank you so much. Can I ask, how long have you been making soap? Also, what is your background or education in? Keep up the great videos. I enjoy watching them!
Can you use sidewalk chalk for color?
*Faith Win* I couldn't find the reply option on your comment so I'm replying here. Soaping101's Bastile recipe is 5% super fatted. You do not have to add cocoa butter, for example. The superfat in that recipe comes from the regular oils. Just add them all in the beginning to melt and proceed per the video, skipping the part where Teach adds the cocoa butter.
Hi, I love your videos and I subscribed to your channel!. Where did you get the stainless steel cups you measure your essential oils? I'm searching the internet but can't find them. Please let me know. Thank you!!

Please tell me what is the difference between "Fluid Hot processing" and "Hot Processing"?
Thank you, I really enjoy your videos. I especially enjoyed the way you tricked me with using whole lemons,in one of your videos that was pretty clever.
