Wow what a great Channel. I love you're videos. I just wondering if it is necessary to ad any Preservation? Anything again bacteria, fungus and stuff? How long can the finished diluted liquid soap hold before it expired? Thank you so much. I learn so much. Please keep up the great work you do. 🥰
Thank you! You must try it cold process and see which way you like better ❤️ there’s also really nice help groups on Facebook you can join if you search for CPLS
Just found your channel. I thank you for this cold process approach as I don’t have a crock pot to do the hot process approach. Now I can make liquid soap paste for dishes. Thanks
Thanks!! Im in the Philippines so most the videos dont help me at all...but I do have coconut oil and I do have a stick blender yeah!!Thanks so much for sharing.
Hey, my liquid soap made with a combination of 3-4 different vegetable oils leaves white spots/white film on the dishes and also does not seem to be cleaning oily dishes too well.....will I encounter the same issue with 100% coconut oil liquid soap?......any suggestions would be helpful as to why I am getting this issue. Thanks for the lovely video:)
TIP: To get to trace faster: Using normal technique, combine when oils are 160°F (71°C) and lye solution is 140°F (60°C). Stir by hand, then SB (on and off) to trace 12 - 15 minutes, over low to medium-low heat. (Maintain temp at 160°F (71°C) until trace occurs.
@@TheScraftworks You're welcome! It is cold process, Catherine Failor method. The temps when you combine oils & lye are important. It jump starts the natural heat of the saponification process. No external heat is used to process as in HP.
Great Tip....also wanted to ask, can I stop blending cold process liquid soap once very light trace is achieved and then setting it aside for 3-4 days for the soap to do all the hardwork on its own and thicken to consistency above or do I need to go all the way and thicken it to heavy trace as done in the video above. In the cold process solid soap bar, I usually put it in the mould at light trace and comes out great.....not sure about the liquid soap, whether I can take the same liberty.....kindly guide @ceemoorhead372 @TheScraftworks
@@karan25535 KOH soap takes longer to trace than NaOH soap. So, No, don't stop at light trace. 100% Coconut Oil will reach hard trace in about 12 minutes if you keep it at 160°F while stickblending over heat. BUT. Your SB may overheat so it's best to use it on/off, stirring in between. I then cover it or put it in a ZipLoc for 2 weeks to reach full saponification. I test with phenolphthalien drops before diluting. Stick a knife in and pull it out. Add a drop to the blade. If pink, it isn't ready. Wait a day or 2 more until the drop is perfectly clear. HTH
Hi again when you said in this video look what its like after 3 weeks once its diluted in water, did you add a preservative or how long will it last once diluted please. Do i need to add a preservative im worried about mold.
I'm curious why didn't make your soap in the same container that you store it in. Maybe I'm just lazy but it seems like you could do it all in the one container, especially because the plastic container and lid will retain the heat better than a metal bowl will.
You definitely can, but I like my container for mixing to have a wider mouth 😆 the plastic to make soap also need to be pp5, so best to check your plastic container if it is type 5😉
Yes you may choose to use a preservative when diluting liquid soap like germall plus. I do talk about it more in my newest video: ua-cam.com/video/PliwJvAlzMo/v-deo.html
Hello, I would love to make laundry liquid soap from coconut oil. Do you have a recipe? I also want to be able to make hand wash, body wash and dishwashers soap from coconut oil. Love your video
I haven’t tried making laundry soap with coconut oil as I don’t know how liquid soap will work in washing machine. If you want a body or hand wash you can refer to this video ua-cam.com/video/5j6nns-Lgs0/v-deo.html I will use the 100% coconut oil soap for washing dishes by hand. Thank you for your support!
I normally do at least 1:1 but I found 1:3 or 1:5 is sufficient when using a former bottle. I’ve done two other videos on the dilution and you can check those out: 1. ua-cam.com/video/sEfLFByyeKk/v-deo.html 2. ua-cam.com/video/qoTb3qLEtTA/v-deo.html
Thank you for sharing, may i ask why my soap divided into 2 layer? First layer is likely white foam and the other the liquid soap. Hope you can help me🙏
The percentage is listed and it exact quantities will depend on how much of the soap you want to make and the purity of your potassium hydroxide. Better work safe when working with hydroxides! Using the soap calculator will help a lot❤️
Thank you for watching! In my opinion, I don’t think liquid soap needs to be neutralised to a lower pH, will consider to make one once my other projects is completed!
Can I use this liquid soap as shampoo for my hair or is appropriate only for skin? How can I adjust the pH if its higher than 7? What can I add to a shampoo against hairfall? It would be so kind of you to help me out with these questions. Keep up the good work 👍👍
You can use it for shampoo but your hair will go through a stage where it gets used to a higher pH soap. I know other people adjust the pH but I don’t do that personally. I haven’t had much experience with ingredients for hair fall though. Hope this helps!
At minute 6:42 u touch the hardened soap with ur bare hands. Is it okay now? I mean is it cured already? I make solid soaps only and i wanna get into liquid soap now. That's why i am asking. Ur videos were the ones i understood the best by the way. Stay as u are. It's perfect
With cold process liquid soap, as long as it passes the zap test, it is ready for dilute and use. It’s different to cold process solid soaps where you need to cure it for 4 weeks. In liquid soap, there is also a waiting period called sequestering, where the soap lathers better after waiting for a few weeks.❤️
It will stay mostly liquid, you will need to add additives for it thicken up. Saline solution is an option but it never really goes to shower gel consistency. I usually use it with foamer bottle.
😆😅🤣great. this is the same process for making what is called JWA or JADAM WETTING AGENT - makes water wetter, so to speak. coconut oil is great for this. we make it but the process doesn't take so long because i don't dilute the potassium hydroxide which i have in 95%. i use my immersion blender and takes no more than 5 minutes to become like the end product shown here...blessing
Which type of coconut oil did you use for this recipe? Actually I bought coconut oil but its liquid at almost room temperature. And there's nowhere written on the packing whether its 72 degree or 90 degree or whatever. It only says 100% pure coconut oil. In this case, which coconut oil should I enter in the soap calculator for knowing the sap and correct quantity of lye needed?
72 degree is most commonly found coconut oil and you can choose that one in the calculator. I also find choosing either one would work since the lye weight doesn’t change regardless which one I choose in my experience. The different degrees just means how the coconut oil has been processed and the 92degree one will melt at higher temperatures. Hope this helps!!
I usually use this soap to clean dishes and the household as it is a full coconut oil soap. I would prefer another formula if used for the face and body shown in my other video. ua-cam.com/video/5j6nns-Lgs0/v-deo.html
Hey, so I have a question. When I'm leaving the soap to sit for the first few weeks can I transfer it to glass jars? Or do I have to let it cure first? Thanks for the video
I'm so sorry this seem to got hidden in the comments, I didnt see this post at all, you can use a whisk but that will take a very long time, I would really suggest you to get a stick blender. Im so sorry I didnt see this.
If I prepare different single soap paste, can I put 2 or 3 different soap paste together and dilute with water? Like coconut oil soap paste for house cleaning. If using for hand wash, add different single soap paste together and dilute it?
@@TheScraftworks Thank you and is it the one that’s 800 wattages and it’s a couple hundred dollars correct? I just need to make sure I get one that blends for a long time in between the soap process☺️
Liquid soaps have a high pH which prevents growth of bacteria but you want to be on the safe side, preservatives should be added. It is important to use one that can survive in a high pH. Hope this helps!
I did a 1:1 ratio back then because I wanted a really strong soap for cleaning. I normally adjust the ratio depending on what I want to use the soap for. I’ll be posting a new video on soap paste dilution soon. Stay tuned!
I would say so and depends how old your olive oil and if it is from a reputable source. As long as the oil doesn’t go rancid then I think for a year it is safe
Yes for liquid soaps you usually sequester it for a few weeks either diluted or undiluted. You can use it right away but the soap turns better after sequestering.
I’ve never worked with guava leaves extract. I guess I would put it at dilution and I would also check whether the extract will do its work at higher pH. Also adding a preservative to preserve the soap.
Yes if you can see the coconut oil soap paste compared to the olive oil soap paste is relatively harder. How hard the soap paste will depend on the temperature of your area, so the hotter it is the softer it is, I would say around the texture of playdo. The hardness doesn’t really change after the full saponification process has taken place.
Coconut oil soap is hard to thicken, the salt solution doesn’t work with high percentage coconut oil. I suggest to use a foam bottle or formulate the soap with olive oil. ☺️
I’m not sure if that will b a good idea to have such a high super fat for liquid soap since it will definitely be cloudy and the probability of it going rancid and other bacteria growth will be much higher.
If you made a 20% superfat liquid soap from coconut oil alone I suspect that you would run the risk of having lumps of hard coconut oil in your soap, depending on the temperature of your home. Given that superfat is simply unsaponified oil, there would be difference between making a 20% SF soap and making a soap like in the video above but measuring out the paste, diluting it, and adding 20% of the weight of the paste in coconut oil. This test would save you from having a whole batch of ruined soap. Honestly if you are going to opt for a high superfat in liquid soap then you should opt for an oil that stays liquid such jojoba, sunflower, or olive oil imo.
Mam Can we add alovera gel to it? If yes means how much amount of base needed to taken and how much amount of water and how much of slivers gel? What kind of preservative needed to be used if natural means suggest. What is the quantity of preservative needed to be taken. Please mam
I’ve never tried using aloe Vera gel in liquid soap. You can give it a try I guess the amount will be taken from the water amount but it will important to test to compatibility. I’ll also just use plain aloe Vera since commercial gels also have other things in it which will affect the stability of the product. One of the preservatives you can try is Germall plus, or any one that can survive a pH of 8+ around 1-3%.
How to preserve hot process liquid soap ?by both chemical and natural way.(for tropical country's like India) )if chemical means how much grm I need to take for *100grm of shampoo base + Required quantity of water to dilute*? Types of preservative,and their quantity . ) if natural preservatives means their quantity used for *100grm of shampoo base + Required quantity of water to dilute*. Types of natural preservative and their quantity. Pls mam
I’m not sure if here is a natural way to preserve it. If you want a chemical way you can try using suttocide a, glydant plus and the amount you use depends on your total quantity and the preservative you use. You should find out how big of your bottle you want to use before picking on the quantity of soap to dilute and how concentrated you want your soap to be.
You can use this method to make shampoo, I prefer the formula I used in this video instead for hair. You can go check it out here ua-cam.com/video/5j6nns-Lgs0/v-deo.html
Instead of so much explainations l wish you had shared the full recipe of making it… except for oil 500 gm there is nothing shared. How much water n how lye??
I have actually showed in the video of how much water and lye to be used without saying it out loud when I have explained how to use the soapee calculator starting from 0:57 . It is really important to understand how to use the calculator before making soap because everyone can use different amounts of oil and have a different purity of potassium hydroxide. Thank you.
I’m sorry I don’t feel comfortable sharing my recipe in grams especially with liquid soap because the purity of the potassium hydroxide can differ and people likes different percentage of super fat - it is a safety issue. I have showed in the video how to use the calculator and all the measurements are in grams already. Thank you

this soap can be use for body too? I hear if we use coconut oil 100%, is not good for body and suitable for dish soap.

This soap is better for cleaning since coconut oil soap has a great cleansing power so it may not be as moisturising for the body.

is it possible po to use this technique and add guava leaves extract? thank you po in advance!
I’ve never worked with guava leaves extract. I guess I would put it at dilution and I would also check whether the extract will do its work at higher pH. Also adding a preservative to preserve the soap.
did you say that the soap paste made by coconut oil turns in to a hard paste...how hard exactly ...fully cured cold process soap 'hard'??
Yes if you can see the coconut oil soap paste compared to the olive oil soap paste is relatively harder. How hard the soap paste will depend on the temperature of your area, so the hotter it is the softer it is, I would say around the texture of playdo. The hardness doesn’t really change after the full saponification process has taken place.
can i wash my body with this soap?
Yes, you can but it may be more on the drying side. Maybe you can try the recipe here instead ua-cam.com/video/5j6nns-Lgs0/v-deo.html
Thanks for the great video, in what stage I can add color and fragrance ?
When you dilute the paste ❤️❤️
Can i use sodium hydroxide?
If you want to make liquid soap, you need to use potassium hydroxide.😉
Can you please suggest ways for thickening coconut oil soap. I tried with 20% salt water but 😞
Coconut oil soap is hard to thicken, the salt solution doesn’t work with high percentage coconut oil. I suggest to use a foam bottle or formulate the soap with olive oil. ☺️
Is this okay with 20 percent superfat for bath liquid soap?
I’m not sure if that will b a good idea to have such a high super fat for liquid soap since it will definitely be cloudy and the probability of it going rancid and other bacteria growth will be much higher.
You supposed to add ECOCERT preservative., And oil disperser in liquid like polysorbate 20 or 80...
If you made a 20% superfat liquid soap from coconut oil alone I suspect that you would run the risk of having lumps of hard coconut oil in your soap, depending on the temperature of your home.
Given that superfat is simply unsaponified oil, there would be difference between making a 20% SF soap and making a soap like in the video above but measuring out the paste, diluting it, and adding 20% of the weight of the paste in coconut oil. This test would save you from having a whole batch of ruined soap.
Honestly if you are going to opt for a high superfat in liquid soap then you should opt for an oil that stays liquid such jojoba, sunflower, or olive oil imo.

Can we add alovera gel to it?
If yes means how much amount of base needed to taken and how much amount of water and how much of slivers gel?
What kind of preservative needed to be used if natural means suggest.
What is the quantity of preservative needed to be taken.
Please mam
I’ve never tried using aloe Vera gel in liquid soap. You can give it a try I guess the amount will be taken from the water amount but it will important to test to compatibility. I’ll also just use plain aloe Vera since commercial gels also have other things in it which will affect the stability of the product. One of the preservatives you can try is Germall plus, or any one that can survive a pH of 8+ around 1-3%.
@@TheScraftworks how long does the product will be stable if we kept.
It for room temperature ( tropical country like India) after adding preservative
If you pick the correct preservative it should last for about a year and try to place in a cool area not directly under sunlight.
@@TheScraftworks ok

Pls mam
I’m not sure if here is a natural way to preserve it. If you want a chemical way you can try using suttocide a, glydant plus and the amount you use depends on your total quantity and the preservative you use. You should find out how big of your bottle you want to use before picking on the quantity of soap to dilute and how concentrated you want your soap to be.
@@TheScraftworks thank you so much mam for responding mam
@@TheScraftworks for 100 grm of diluted?base how many percentage of preservative should be added
is it for shampoo?
You can use this method to make shampoo, I prefer the formula I used in this video instead for hair. You can go check it out here

Instead of so much explainations l wish you had shared the full recipe of making it… except for oil 500 gm there is nothing shared. How much water n how lye??
I have actually showed in the video of how much water and lye to be used without saying it out loud when I have explained how to use the soapee calculator starting from 0:57 . It is really important to understand how to use the calculator before making soap because everyone can use different amounts of oil and have a different purity of potassium hydroxide. Thank you.
@@TheScraftworks l request kindly share here again in grams .l shall be grateful 🌸🌺
I’m sorry I don’t feel comfortable sharing my recipe in grams especially with liquid soap because the purity of the potassium hydroxide can differ and people likes different percentage of super fat - it is a safety issue. I have showed in the video how to use the calculator and all the measurements are in grams already. Thank you
@@TheScraftworks thanks for replying
Dilute it in what??...
Distilled water
