Thank you...I'm super new. I made turmeric soap. First batches seized, I saved them by cooking in crock pot. It turned out great ! Then I made another CP turmeric soap, I thought it was good. But when I unmold it, it dry and cracked. Again saved by my crock pot....then I'm thinking why not just make HP. So far your video is really clear gave information. In most videos, I watched no recipes or no talking just annoying music. Thank you Ellen !
"It was fun and easy..." Wow, Ellen, you're such an inspiration! I got a crockpot a few months ago but haven't touched it yet because I was just skeptical to try hot process but you are encouraging me (and, I'm sure, many other people too) to get adventurous and try this out! I'm totally in for the challenge! Lol Who else?? :)
This is by far the best hot process soap video I’ve seen thus far. You did an absolutely wonderful job. Your batter stayed so fluid and it was so pretty. I am sloooooowwwwwly moving toward trying hot process. Thank for sharing.
I only make hot process soap for my family like every other month and I always come to this video to make sure that I'm doing it right lol. I love these videos
Pretty pretty!! I made some the other day for the first time in about a year. My 4th or 5th batch only lol A tip for you, I don’t normally have test strips but I watched a gal(can’t remember her name) she took out a tiny bit once it became that gel mashed potato consistency and washed her hands with it, if it turns to soap while washing, it’s ready. I’ve been doing that ever since 😊
I always do CP, but I have done HP, and I love it. Made two batches last week, hooked on it because you don't have to worry about your fragrance oil causing problems with your recipe.
@@sl4983 Hello, when I do CP I freeze my water into cubes. Weight out in cubes, add my lye amount. ⚠️ Still wear goggles and mask 💯The lye dissolves the ice, not only are the fumes(low low) gone, but the mixture cools much faster. I like to soap at 85-90 degrees.
Thank you so much for sharing your entire process! You've taken away my fear for approaching hot process again, because in all my previous attempts the soap was lumpy and super difficult to work with. I've regained some confidence now, after watching this. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for being an inspiration and helping newbies. I have just started and has been so nervous about the processess but you have given recipes that I can tweek and make it my own. The hot process I am going to try it and I will run your video while I am doing it and will let you know how I get on. So thank you for your honesty and your energy.
I love hot process, too. Those look remarkably like your beautiful cold process soaps. My theory on fragrances is you add them at the end of the cook and there's no lye attacking the fragrance molecules so they do better. However, it's just a theory, too. Great job!
Sometimes I share your videos on Facebook because your soap is not just good for the skin but amazingly beautiful!! I really hope you start making more hot process soap videos!
Hello there! Great video, I've made two batches of HP soap and I of course used a spatula to scrape the edges of my crock pot but I used a sturdy whisk to mix the mixture while cooking. Using a whish made the mixture really smooth with no lumps and probably reduced cooking time. Because the cooked soap gets hard so fast I never thought that you could do a swirl design. I want to make a HP olive oil soap soon so I will give it a try, thank you for the inspiration!!
Beautiful! I’ve been making both cp and hp , but I learned something new from this video to make mine more fluid, thanks for sharing your adventure. My thoughts on essential oils in hot process is exactly the same, it just makes more since to me that their beneficial properties would be left more intact. 😊 Side note, love your eye makeup application, looks very nice. I was a makeup artist and photographer for about 25 years. I’m about three years into soap making, thanks to Elly’s Everyday! Came across your video more recently. They’re great.
I can honestly say Ellen that you made some beautiful bars with hot process. There’s another soap maker on UA-cam that I watch every now and then and she specializes only in hot process and her bars never come out this gorgeous. Hers always have a gritty look to them every time. Kudos to you my friend! 🤩
I love the way this soap turned out. I like using Australian red reef clay too in my soaps, but like you said it's very hard to find. Thank you so much for all the great soap making tips! ❤️
I have truly enjoyed this video...this is the best HP soap batch I have ever seen! WOW. The soap turned out to be beautiful bars...maybe I'll try. Thanks for sharing!
This is fabulous Ellen! I absolutely love the colors 😍! I have been wanting to do my first hp soap, but I'm still hesitant about it, I just need to do it and get it over with lol, looks fun too. I've gotten comfortable with cp, so, its time to do some hp soap. I love Ellys channel too, and I watch Holly's from Missouri River soap all the time too, great videos and you are very informative 👍. Thanks for sharing.
Those are lovely! I just made a small batch (from the recipe you shared last time) with orange essential oil! Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to go cut mine!
Awh I thought I’d see a stik blender in each hand 🤣 Tips Tips & more Tips thanks for telling us about warming the moulds and everything else. Don’t you love the sound of HP bubbling when you stir. Gorgeous colours and swirls. Brilliant. Thanks Ellen ♥️
2nd try?! Well you already look like an expert because they look awesome. The swirls are just like CP soaping and very nice. Cheers and Blessings this Holiday Season. 💕
That is not what flashpoint is, and losing fragrance has nothing to do with the flashpoint. From a chemist... Flash point is the temperature at which a substance will burn if exposed to a flame. It's not the auto ignition temp, and it's not the temp at which something will burn if exposed to a spark. And it has zero to do with how easy a chemical goes "poof." Volatility is the concept you're really talking about, which is the ability of a chemical to evaporate or volatilize. The vapor pressure of a chemical at a given temperature and pressure is the measurement of the chemical's volatility. The higher the vapor pressure, the higher the volatility and the faster it will evaporate. There are highly volatile chemicals that don't have a flash point, because they don't burn. Flash points are easy to find because they're required information on every Safety Data Sheets (SDS or MSDS) for products sold on the open market so fire fighters can do their job of fighting fires. Vapor pressure measurements are much harder to find.
@@EllenRuthSoap - If I may comment. I normally add the sugar to the soap along with the yogurt and I have no issue. I used to add the sugar to they lye solution and noticed that depending on what type of ingredients I was using (i.e. oatmilk and oats) the batter would turn darker from the sugar caramelizing which is why I decided to add it after the soap had cooked.
Love this! I bought a crock pot months ago to try a hot process soap. Perhaps I’ll give it a go. Thanks for always being a positive role model & sharing so graciously. ~Ann P.S. the Red Reef clay is already sold out...ugh You’re correct, hard to find 😋
This has been wonderful to watch! You did great jobs on your first two batches...Way better than I did. :) You may even make your job easier and add your color to the batter before it's cooked. I've been doing that to help get the color mixed in easily without adding much more water post-cook, and I've really liked the results. You're doing wonderfully, and I feel silly even making a suggestion when yours have been so much more successful than mine, but I felt like it wouldn't hurt to offer a tip. :)
Hi Ellen, one of my viewers said you mentioned me so I had to come over and have a look! What a great video! Lovely soap. I'd say you've progressed well past beginner status with HP soap making! :)
Ellen thank you soooo much for this extremely informative video. After watching I am inspired to give it a try and I love how it looks. The swirls turned out beautiful! Thanks again and I wish you Happy Holidays😊
Yea I saw Ellys Video when it 1st came out and I was like what?? Lol.. But yeah.. Now she used Noah lye in hers is that okay to use instead of the Potassium Hydroxide??..
You are great theacher ellen. I made some hot procces soap for my self, so many theory for the themperature to put essential oil, at what themperature you pour EO.?
Your Hot Process soaps came out beautiful! I felt so discouraged from a large batch that I made. It seemed to have come out too soft. My first batch came out perfect, but the large one didn't. Do you think it could be that it contained too much water? My first batch took only 2 days to harden, and I was able to use it fairly quickly. Not sure exactly what happened there. I'm a new soap maker and still learning. I really enjoy your videos :)
Hello Ellen, I love all your videos and I've learned s Tom from your videos. I have a question...How did you get your stamp designed? I followed your link, but I do not see where to format with my name. Thanks!!! ☺
Actually it is very true that high pH conditions attack fragrance oils, in chemistry lab when we need to clean organic compounds we use strong base bath to break them down
Hi Ellen. Where do you get your soap molds? I like this one and the other video you made with the same title. How did you get your white soap so white? Hiow much Titanium Dioxide are you using and are you using oil or water with it?
I'm struggling so much to get my hot process to work for me. I find that I'm getting too thick of a batter and almost instantly it gets so thick that I can't even stir it. I'm going to try again with EVOO in a large amount for my 1 lb. batch for trial. I also add goats milk (3 oz) as well as hemp and yogurt. Its getting the best of me and Id appreciate some insight into what I'm doinhg wrong. Thank you so much. I enjoy watching your videos but I think a video just on making lye solution would be very helpful. Im thinking this is where the trouble lies.
Hi Ellen Thank you for this helpful video. I wonder how to premix your titanium dioxide with what do you mix (and how much) it and where do you store ?
I pre-mix my T.D. (it's a water soluble one): 1 part TD to 2 parts water. If I'm not going to be using it within a few days, I'll add a touch of preservative to it too.
This is a great video - thanks. Did you calculate any super fat into the recipe or just add the hemp after the cook? What was the water as percent of oil? 38?
@@EllenRuthSoap Thank-you for the fast reply! I will try this tonight. I have a Hemp recipe that I adore, I'll split the hemp oil in half and add into the lye mixture and rest afterwards. You're an angel!
Hi Ellen! Hope you're doing well. I got some colloidal oatmeal because of your videos lol But I was wondering how much I should use in a batch of 3 lb of soap. Thank you! I love your tips!
