Thank you. I honestly have never tried to CPOP Castile, so I dont know if it work. I just might have to try that out to see what happens 😁😁😁 I will be sure to bring along a camera so I can share the process 😍

@@rootedcoop awesome! I asked some soaping friends and they said you sure can, they do it❤️😉

@@dianehedricks7860 That gives me more confidence, I honesty think it will work well, it’s just not a method that I have tried with Castile 😁

Thank you for your kind words. This has been as I go approach to my channel. It’s getting there, thank you for your support it means a lot to me 😃

Thank you 😊

Aww thank you

😁😁🙏

Yes… absolutely!! Thrifting is a great way to get a stick blender. There is no need to purchase a new one at first. As for the hand mixer making the batch float… I have heard that as well that it may result in the bar floating. Which either way, sink or float is not the end of the world. However, this was my first batch that I used a hand mixer on, mainly just wanted to test it out, 😁 Well it did the job. As for floating, this batch did not float. So, I don’t know if my results are typical or if I would have had different results if I would have mixed to a medium to heavy trace. I may revisit this in the future to see if I get different results. So stay tuned😁 Thank you for your comment and happy soaping

Thank you for your question. I will do my best to answer. This particular batch came to trace for me in about 10-12 minutes with the blender. However, this was a bit more than a light trace, as I wanted the mix to be a heavier trace for this batch. Trace, is not typically measured in time, but rather measured by when the visible traces are noticed when stirring the mixture. This can be different times for different recipes, or even climate conditions in different batches of the same recipe. Good luck with your soaping journey😁😁 Stay Rooted and Embrace the Suds 😀😀

@@rootedcoop Thank you so much I appreciate. God bless you

Sure… I typically let the batch sit untouched for 4-6 weeks. The cure time is the loss of water weight. Thanks for your question 😁

@@rootedcoop I really liked your videos I am very new in soap making but very enthusiastic.I wanna more guidelines from experts like you.

🥰😁😁😁

😁😁🥰

They scared me at first and usually had reinforcements standing by to help ( my husband) lol 😂 . After a few batches the volcano doesn’t bother me. Don’t give up 😁😁 Thanks for your comment and support 🥰

I use this method for some of my batches. I like the challenge 😁. I also use this as a way to demonstrate different methods of soap making. It is definitely a workout for these batches 🤣🤣. I’m happy that you found it valuable and it’s perfectly ok if it’s not for you.

I usually use clay with all my milk recipes as it adds some exfoliation to the bar and helps anchor the fragrance. I sometimes use it in the oats and honey recipes, but not always. And I tend to keep the oats for the oats and honey recipe. No particular reason, but that’s how I have been doing it. Hope that helps and thank you for nice words and support.

Omg I bet you did have a hot mess… there are several variables that could possibly have happened here. I honestly don’t know… different oils and fats react differently with lye so that could be the case, the lye solution could have been a bit to concentrated, or it could be just a bad batch… and that’s ok too. We have all experienced bad batches through the learning process. You might play around with your recipe and adjust the oil ratios and try again. I have had batches that just didn’t work out but slight modifications through soap calc and they turned out great. Don’t give up and happy soaping 😁

Perhaps it was too hot, because heat can speed up saponification. Try to mix in at maybe 100 degrees F (45-50deg C), also check on your soapcalc recipe it's high in stearic acid (also can speed up saponification), check the saturated fats vs unsaturated fats ratio too, I think having a higher saturated fats (butters & coconut oil, palm oil) can also cause it to thicken up fast.. There's a number of different things that could have caused that. Those are some of the few

Thank you!!

That is one benefit to adding them late. 😁 thanks

I experience my fair share of impatience most times😁. Thank you for your comment and support 🥰

Just loving these neon micas from Glitter Chimp 🥰

@@rootedcoop they turned out gorgeous!

Just enter RootedCoop10 I love their products and they have amazing service.

Hello and thank you for your comment, question and kind words 🥰. So I will try to answer as best I can. Either method works great and both yields a similar bar of soap. Countertop is a way to get to the result, if you don’t have a crockpot that you want to dedicate to soaping, or don’t want to make the investment to just try it out. The countertop method is a quicker way to get to end result, but it has a drawback of having to be right there with it. The crockpot method takes more time so keeping an eye on it while it goes through the stages could be inconvenient. I prefer this method mainly because I want to get to the end result quicker. So either way is great, it just depends on your preference. Thank you so much for the question 😃

Thank you and they smell amazing😁😁

@@rootedcoopwho made the magnolia scent? I absolutely love magnolia scent also❣️

The Magnolia scent was from Aztec Candle Supply

@@rootedcoop I bet it smells wonderful!

I really like it a lot

I don’t disagree, sometimes those few extra stirs mixes the swirls to well. But it still turns out really good, like a happy accident 😁

Aww thank you ☺️

Thank you! I really like palm oil too, it adds so much to the bar.

Thank you, I am so happy you enjoyed the video. It is possible that the EO would last or maintain longer using this method, since the EO doesn’t go through the saponification process. I have had good results with both EO and Fragrances that don’t do well with other methods or tend to be light fragrances once complete. The best way to know for sure is to give it a try and see how it does with this method. I would love to hear how your batch turns out 🥰 Happy Soaping 😁😁😁

Thank you 😁 this one turned out wonderfully

The color definitely made a come back 😁 thank you

I have done 1-2 weeks also and don’t see anything to stress over. I do the extra time basically for extra piece of mind. I hope you enjoy trying this method😁😁 Happy soaping

Thank you so much!

Have to work quick with it for sure… but it makes such a great bar 🥰

Thank you 😁❤️

I would be happy to add Turkish, if I can, to the list. Also, happy to have you watching the soaping journey. 😁❤️

❤​@@rootedcoop
