    I am starting my bacon fat collection!! I can’t wait to make this soap!! Thank you

      It’s very important to get that fat really clean or it doesn’t last as long. Starts to turn dark yellow after months. But it’s still great soap!

    Wow. We're definitely not eating enough bacon around here. That's got to change, because I want to try that - partially because I've always wanted to make my own soap, and well - because bacon. Thanks very much for the shout-out. Stay safe. Cheerio.

    I know this is an old video, but thought I would point out that baking soda is a base, you don't use a base to neutralize a base. You would want to neutralize a sodium hydroxide burn with a weak acid. Vinegar or lemon juice would work. Thanks for the tutorial. Easy to follow.

    Since you're a diy kind of gal would you consider a mini series on bamboo?
    Making charcoal, and then activating it.
    And just in case this helps, for some reason bamboo always likes to grow near the highway. I have no idea why though 🤔

    How did you get the meaty smell out? Also, did you just wash the gloves the next day in water?

    • @JulieHiltbrunner
      @JulieHiltbrunner  2 роки тому +1

      It has no meat smell. If it does I imagine the grease wasn’t clean enough. Melt the grease pour into water. Let harden up. Remove only the clean grease from the top. Repeat as necessary.

    • @JulieHiltbrunner

    Do you put something over the stuff you leave outside overnight, due to it not being safe for animals that might come across it? Also, you can do white vinegar and water to deactivate the lye.

    GOD Bless you, Julie ! I’m not sure if the risk is worth it. Lol Why is lye ok on the skin after it cures.. doesn’t water re-activate it ? ✌🏼🤓♥️💫🤗 ... ( I do know lye is in store soap... ignorance is bliss 😳 🤣

    • @JulieHiltbrunner
      @JulieHiltbrunner  4 роки тому +1

      After 48 hours it’s no longer lye. All true bar soap is made with lye. --from the wisdom of the Internet--“Lye itself isn't a safe substance to bathe in; in its original form, it's actually caustic. Even though every real soap begins with lye, there is no lye left in the finished product. During saponification, the chemical reaction between the lye and other ingredients forms soap.”

    • @JulieHiltbrunner
      @JulieHiltbrunner  4 роки тому +2

      For years my husband wouldn’t let me make soap... He thought it was too dangerous. Now he has no dry bumpy skin and he’s like... “Why did you take so long to learn to make soap!!” I can’t win!!! 😂.
