- Super Laundry Sauce concentrate recipe and instructions. Sorry if the video is a bit shaky. This homemade detergent is supposed to get out just about every stain imaginable. But you can be the judge of that and try it out for yourself! From my experience with it, I would say it works way better than Tide and it will only cost you about $1.76 for 128 loads of laundry!!! I have 6 kids in the house and I do laundry just about every day and this saves me a ton of money! You can't beat that!
Mom's Super Laundry Sauce Whipped Laundry Concentrate Recipe:
This makes 1/2 Gallon of concentrate!
That's a full 128 loads of laundry!
1 bar Fels Naptha (The ENTIRE Bar!)
1 cup 20 Mule Team Borax
1 cup Arm & Hammer Washing Soda (NOT BAKING SODA!)
4 cups of hot water

Make it easier on yourself and use the food processor to grate your bar of soap, do several at a time, store in sandwich bags already grated and ready for when you want to make up a batch. Also buy a used bread machine and put the water and grated soap in on the dough cycle and that works very well then continue on. I do not dilute my mixture and just add half of the amount usually called for in my washers.. I paid five dollars for my bread machine I use just for making laundry soap. I have been making my own for many, many years. I am 82.

Bread machine! I'm going to dry that!

Omg thank you for this tip. It's old but it still works. I freaking cant wait to do this. 💖thank you
Just a tip, after I blend the dry soap into a powder I add a cpl tablespoons of borax then blend again while adding 2 cups of boiling water. It melts it and blends it into a cream so you can add that to the boiling water and it won't clump up.
Great recipe! Thanks for sharing with us. Another perk is your washer stays super clean with no build up. Commercial laundry soap is so bad for gunking up the machine. Love this, works marvelous!! The sauce is the Boss!🤵🏻😂
This is the first recipe I have found that I don't have to worry about making and storing more than I want. This was a great idea. Thank you for posting!
I love your recipe. I previously made 10 gallons of the DIY laundry detergent and it's so difficult for me to keep shaking a large container, because it separates. Your recipe is so much better. I wish I found you earlier. Thanks.
add a few tablespoons in the initial process of vegetable glycerin. helps prevent the separation.
I never had mine separate at all. I made a 5 Gal it was perfect. You need a good instructions. It took me 2 days to finish my process. Cause u have to make sure u stir it good the next day u add another hot water and stir. Make sure u have a good stick blender. I bought a paint mixer attachment to a drill.Then u are ready.
Mine is creamy sauce no separation what so ever. U have to make sure that the powder were super melted.

It’s very dilute. Washing with the weight of a osier clip worth of soap. Like plain water.
I like the liquid formula best. I wash clothes in cold water and dry formulas don't dissolve all that great, so I love this! Thanks for sharing!
I make this in dry form and I add Purex fresh spring waters laundry enhancer to my recipe. I add 1/2 scoop oxyclean separate. Using the Purex crystals works quite well.
Using the dry form, I take my tbsp full and I dissolve in a cup before adding to my washer. I do have the largest washer available, so I will use 2 tbsp on the big loads. The new washers are 3x's bigger then what they use to be and the lid locks as soon as the load starts.
I use this recipe because it works the best of all the laundry detergents out there. This gets my clothes clean and I have to say I do love the Purex Spring fresh crystals. I've been washing my clothes this way for quite a while now and I wouldn't ever use anything else. I have 5 extra fels naphtha bars and 2 boxes each of the washing soda, the borax on hand and 2 big bottles of Purex laundry enhancer. It will be a while before I run out.
I store mine in an ice cream pail covered with the cup on top.
If you will not heat the grated Fels Naptha on the stove (only the water), THEN continue to heat the soap & water, it will dissolve much faster. Heating the grated soap makes it melt, causing it to clump, which takes longer to dissolve in the water.
This way is SOOOO much better than making 10 gallons that you have to store (or give away). 😀👍
It’s amazing how much better this is than the most expensive commercial detergent.
I really want to thank you for making this video. I had to make this for Environmental Science class but it turned out gritty and separated. I just did it for class to do something for a portfolio, but you inspired me to fix it and actually use it. I’m allergic to everything that I have tried from the store, even Dreft. I can’t wait to try this and see if I can finally not itch in my clothes. Great video! Thank you!
Did this work for you?
Did this work for you? I made a dry DIY soap once and it was too itchy for my sensitive skin and it was really hard on my clothes, like it wore them down.
@TXrivernaiad
From what I am;
seeing/hearing/reading;
the DRY version does that due to the BORAX. If it is used in the liquid/cream form, it is not a problem.
I don't know why.
This is a great video....I make mine with laundry bars I make myself, or with Zote or Fels if Im waiting on soap to cure.
i just wanted to say, blenders are pretty cheap now. so please if you use a blender to make this, forget about using it for anything besides soaps. particles from the soaps you cant easily see can make you terribly ill. just grab another blender from walmart, target, amazon, even try Goodwill if you wanna be super budget mindful.🌹
I agree that this is a wonderful video. I too have shopped Goodwill et cetera for second hand stuff to save money, but you can also put the soap in the microwave. It crumbles very readily after nuking! I also make my own soap from scratch and love using my own laundry detergent. I have used Zote and Fels and hands down, Fels is better.
Don’t use laundry sheets use white vinegar with favorite eccentrically oil and mix and use it as fabric softener.
@@wandamcgann7728 can also mix your favorite hair conditioner with white vinegar to make your own fabric softener.
I love Fels Naptha. My mother used it in her wringer washer. I can see the bar of soap and a paring knife along side it lol I make homemade laundry detergent with Fels but I really like this concentrated idea and the fact that it's whipped. Can't wait to try it ..which goes to show you how exciting my life is lol Is there something wrong with people who actually enjoy making their own cleaning products? I like the money I save.:o)
I like making my own cleaning supplies because I like the smell of chemicals. Weird I know
I am going to try this. I make a full years worth of the powder laundry soap. Thank you for sharing.
Been making laundry soap for a while now and loving it . But hating the half empty container for shaking or stirring . Your directions are so clear your execution on point. So tomorrow I'm making my first batch of you supper washing sauce thank you so much . I am anxiously awaiting your next 💜
How is it Does it smell nice and doesn't work with just one tablespoon?
Just made this and double the recipe. Came out perfectly. Thank you very much for sharing. Now going to do the laundry. 😀
I made this today, I can't wait to share my experience with you.
Jason James how did it go?
Thanks for sharing this! This is my favorite recipe! I have made this with the white zote as well. I found Zote flakes at Walmart. Best day ever lol. I only problem I have now is I shared with family and they ask me to make it. Haha love it :)
Angel Mabe I made a dry powder recipe for myself and my mom and sister have been using it all up! I make it in small batches too.
I like your method also. It is just me and I don't have space for storing gallons of soap. wonderful!! Thanks.
It only makes 2 quarts at a time.
I have made this many times over. I love it and use it cleaning my furniture, just use a soft bristle brush and a damp cloth, I use it cleaning my leather seats in my Tahoe, for my laundry and so on. I also make it up for family, they all use it in their cars and cleaning their couches and chairs. Thanks for the recipe.
Only 0.050 oz of soap/load = paper clip.
Wow I never thought about using it to clean anything but laundry
I love that you put your recipe underneath so we can have it for later thank you so much awesome and amazing thank you for sharing wow easy
I make this in powder form. It works fabulously and is amazing soap! I only use fels naphtha when making this!!!! I have enough fels naphtha to last me 2 years!
I add oxiclean to my batch, which really makes it clean a ton better and I only use a tbsp per load. :). I also add purex crystals in my batch and it still works amazing.😍
It's the best soap ever! Fels naphtha smells amazing
I'm going to try the liquid way with one batch. I make my own nice bar soap to sell and I have nice thick plastic containers from my 8lbs coconut oil bucket to store it in. :)
I have enough ingredients for at least a year. I
Nicole - how do you make the concentrated dry detergent?
Nicole - I wish that Colgate still made octagon soap because that was even better!
Oxi Clean in liquid recipe has caused plastic containers to rupture. Be careful.
@@heartsafire1 glad to hear this before trying. 👍👍👍
I LOVE this stuff. Thank you for the video. I used it to clean a carpet with some pet stains. I can not believe what came out with the steam cleaner and the room smells wonderful.
You are welcome and I'm glad you like it!
Hey dear thanks for the beautiful recipe. In my country washing soda and borax are too expensive. Can I just use soap to make the sauce
Amazing, I like your finished product the best. I can't wait to make it.
I like it and I will try this recipe and thank you for sharing
Sauce is what you pour over food....soap is what you pour over clothes! But I make my own laundry soap also. I use sunlight laundry bar soap instead...great lemony smell!
Never seen that brand of laundry bar soap
it seems to me that more water can be added in the pot then mixture transferred to the large plastic container, cover, let it sit and use a stick blender to finish it off
Can I use Zote instead or Dr. Bronner's castile soap bar..
What would the ratio of ingredients be if you use a 14.1 oz. bar of Zote? I used the recipe the way you made it and it works great, but with five kids I run out in two weeks maybe three and I want to make a bigger batch using the bigger Zote bar. Thank you for this recipe to help parents and folks to make our money stretch farther.
Just double the recipe. I actually triple the recipe as I have 6 kids! :)
To my understanding it may thicken up a bit as it sits after you blend it?
This is the second video like this that I have seen today. Where did this come from? In a year of watching videos, today is the first time I've seen this recipe. Before I forget, be sure to get a rubber spatula so you can get all of that soap out of the 2 jars.
I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although I wondered where in the world you got this recipe from. I would ha e never thoughtof it!
Thank you for answering so quickly. I did a test run in my washer and at the end of the cycle big chunks were still there
Thanks Valarie. Your comments about following the receipe are the most helpful as you describe other things that can go wrong when you don't.
I think I'm going to try this. I used to use Gain laundry and softener but after making my own with washing soda, borax and soda I accidently put in some Gain softener in a load and broke out in a whole body rash and welts. Horrible, I itched from a Sun, Mon, Tues and Wed that night I went to bed and Thur am completely gone, not one itch. I has told a friend and I think she did some healing on me. This is an intense process but looks like it would be great to use.
This is a recipe I can’t wait
To try! Thanks for
Sharing!!!
Worthless. Too dilute.
I have made the 5 gallon liquid once, lasted over 6 months. I am ready to make another batch, but noticed the laundry soaps (Fels and Zote) are now in different smaller sizes. What size was your bar? Seems everyone says a bar...not ozs. Thanks?
oh no! figures! I am guessing from what I have seen it's not an exact science, you may have to use a more than the 1 tbls here you have to adjust these things to your washer size and load size how dirty they are. If your clothes aren't very clean use 1 and a half Tbles or 2. I am using 3 tbles dry mix in my lg capacity He washer yes it safe for He
Bruce Nelson what is your dry recipe??
Hi will the detergent stay creamy thanks for the video
Looks like a good recipe
I place the fells naphtha bar in the microwave for a few seconds to expand it and then hand grate and it makes grating it up super easy and super fast.
I will have to try doing this. When I I make my laundry cleaning supplies; I make it in bulk. It has been several years since I made last. Was refreshing my memory since I'm getting ready to make some more.
I made it and its super wonderful, great scent , scent actually fades during washing, it is great. I covered it with a film of wax paper after pouring just a little water on top so it wont harden in the bucket
Soap per load = weight of a paper clip. Worthless.
after time it thickens up, but still scoopable, why leave it to stand and separate when youre going to whip it together again?
if its still too hot and too liquidy, when you blend it will be too thin and separate some and if you leave it too long too cool it will go gritty
Just like when you're making mayonnaise you must let it cool so that the consistency will do right
It is for white or colored laundry ?
Thank you ! 😘
You can use it for all colors and whites and mixed colors
Plus, you don't get all the chemicals and perfumes that are in the store brands.
just a quick question, I am just one person in the house, I don't want to make that much cause I will last forever. Can I make 1/4 of everything instead?
You can make the entire batch and give a little away to close family and friends and neighbors.
Regular mouth jars or wide mouth jars to use for blender??
Can you use ANY bar soap
Love the video! I'm gonna try this! Thanks for sharing!!!
I’m allergic to Fels Naptha. Can I use Ivory soap?
Maybe you can use the "ZOTE" laundry bar soap. They now sell ZOTE in flakes so it would save a process.
ZOTE comes in white or pink bars. You choose the color
You need to use zero superfat soap.
Does this ever separate for you? I find that it becomes thick and chunky instead of staying creamy (household of 7!) so I quit making it....
Yeah mine came out like that with zote
People say is depends on what kind of soap(pure olive oil soap i guess doesnt turn out well) you use and if you let it sit longer than 4 hours before blending.
This one I’ll make!
I love the Idea of this recipe because I live in a small apartment. I have a few questions. What size are your mason jars. Does it separate after a while. Is it good in apartment washers.
The mason jars are 1 quart and they are the regular sized mouth. After the detergent has sat for a while it will get a little bit of separation but all you have to do is stir it a bit and it is fine! It will work great in ANY washer!
Can't wait to try this. Great video.
Does this dissolve in cold water?
Mam I m from Pakistan. It’s not easy to get Fels naphtha from Pakistan. So can I use laundry soap for this recipe?and how much time it can sustain in room temperature
Hi I’m in Australia and just looked online, you can exchange the Fells Naptha for a Castile soap which is made using 100% Olive Oil do you have that available or the other soap one is Zote I think that’s also American. Hope that helps.
ZOTE is from Mexico.
I have some that looks the same as the day I made it that is 5 years old.
Can you substitute the borax or exclude the borax & if so will it still turn out the same ?
Renae Brown
It’s just a water softener. She already added washing soda, which does the same thing. These DIYers really don’t understand what they’re doing. Their research consists of reading advertising slogans on the box.
Borax is a soap in the 70's we washed are grease hands with it. Most service stations had the dispenser on the wall and borax cleaned and softened your hands not like the harsh chemical crap today
dm8867
Nope. By soap you probably are trying to say it’s a surfactant. It’s not. It’s used as a water softener. Precipitates hard water mineral ions like Mg and Ca as borates.
To confirm: Dissolve some in water. Add an oil. Shake. Note that the layers separate. The water layer will remain clear. Maybe you’re referring to something like Lava. IDK.
I do know there’s a gel type hand cleaner that mechanics use. Still sold. Don’t know the name. You’re probably thinking of that. Maybe called Goop?
@@dm8867 i remember as a kid going certain places and having that gritty dry soap :D brings back memories!
@@dm8867 brought back a ton of memories. My dad ran a MARATHON full service gas station. Had the dispensers in both bathrooms, through out the 3 service bays, along with the outdoor sink. 😀 💖
Can you take powdered detergent, heat it up and make this whipped creamy detergent?
Courtney
if you are interested please let me know if you're interested please let us at our house and then delete it immediately by return mail
Awesome!! Great soap! good instructions!
will the mix go moldy after a while?
If making this to sell how much would you charge
I will be using zote or kirks castille soap so should I put in the came amount of weight in soap to get the same effect as fels naptha
Yes, thanks I forgot to mention the castile soap in my comment.
This stuff is amazing
I don't have a blender. Do you think it would be okay if I didn't fine grate the soap and after the 4 hours wait time, freeze the sauce in a bowl for 10 or 15 minutes until it is softly solidified and use a hand mixer to mix it all up?
I Created this recipe and it was taken directly from my site here: www.budget101.com/content.php?r=3993
All of the questions asked can be answered in our FAQ file in the article.
I have been using your site for some time now because of this recipe, it is awesome.
@budget101
I did see that you made it on your website and I'm gonna try it because I think it looks amazing and it saves a lot of money thank you both the lady on the video and the maker of this recipe I guess the lady from the video just explaining for people that have doubts on it
Hi can i add oxy cleaning and fabric softener because i have a lots of then
Wow, Thank you for sharing this. Money saver!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your laundry detergent recipe. I just stumbled onto your video. I also read the comments and learned a lot of awesome tips! I can't wait to make some and give it a try!! 👏👍🤗💖❣🙋♀️
It’s very dilute. Soap/load weighs less than a paper clip. Use plain water instead.
I made it and I tried it. Great recipe
Does this melt or stay whipped ? How long ?
It stays whipped.
I have someone in laundry room that I made 5 years ago.
1. I made several batches.
2. Word got out that I was doing this and I received bunches of store bought product.
3. Due to the work I was doing I received a lot of store bought.
I have almost used up all the liquid detergent. Saving the pods for emergency purposes and giving some away.
Finally, now when my laundry sauce is stolen, I can make my own!
Does it stay blended. My soap recipe separates, which makes using it a pain in the butt.
Sabrina Suarez,
It will not separate.
At least mine hasn't.
I make several batches in my efforts to cut down on constantly making anything.
I am in the process of getting ready to make some more. I had some on the shelf that was at least 6 years old and never separated.
So I just got this really devious thought of replacing someone's cheddar with the grated Naptha and also replacing their mayo with the finished product. I know, I'm going to hell.
April Fools! hahaha
😂
😂😂😂
This stuff is amazing!
I am using my hotel soap I've collected from around the US. Will that work instead of that soap you mentioned?
No this a stain laundry soap. You can learn to recycle your soap you boil it with water just type in recycle soap here at youtube
I dont have a blender...can i use a hand held electric mixer?
I have used essential oils in mine and it did not ruin the recipe.
Good luck with that.. :)
I have too and it is awesome !!!
Wow Thx God Bless You
Can you add scents boosters to this ? Will it affect the outcome?
Can we please be friends???? I love this idea. I am allergic to everything and I have been making my own soap for sometime now and I really like this idea.
You can buy Zote flakes at walmart
And is it good in cold water wash
Yes it is!!!
Great, thanks for letting me know. I'm going to do it. Can't wait!
wow..love this.. i want to do it..
Does the smell from the fumes get you sick?
When ever you are working with chemicals; there should be PLENTY OF AIR FLOW.
If I do indoors have windows open and ceiling fan going.
Thank's.
Does it matter if one has slightly more than the other, as you're tipping them into a container at the end anyway
I don't have a detachable blender, I can make it in mason jar but after 4 hours I can transfer the whole mixture into blender?
Yep!
Or you could use a stick blender in the bucket and pour cleanly back into the jars if you want jars.
Just skip the double pots. I agree nice recipe but patience is a virtue. and the original recipe is less hassle.
I make powder laundry detergent. I think I may try this. I use Ivory soap when making the other.....can I use that?
When I did it I used my own homemade bar soap and it works fine. So it shouldn't matter if u use Ivory
Just be sure to use the same amount
I want to add tea tree oil. Do you have a recommended amount? Should it be done at a specific part of the process?
don't add oils when its too hot or the oils break down and down smell as strong as you would like, maybe add them after the 4 hours , right before blending
Can I use this for the front load washing machine
Yes
Can you use this laundry soap if you hand wash clothes?
yashira cruz yes. I do when my washer breaks. My new expensive washer has broken down 2 times now.:/
What type of blender is that which allows you to attach the blades to a standard mouth mason jar?
Any blender that has a screw off bottom will fit on a regular mouth mason jar.
what would the measurements be for a HE washer?
There's a much easier way to do this without messing up so many dishes. You can make this in regular mouth mason jars and put the blender base on the mouth of the jar. Then put on the blender and turn on to mix like beast. I let the fels-naptha sit in the jars over night to melt first.
scene i dont like the phels-napha soap ( smells awful ) will this work with zote ??
Yes it will also you can buy Tide bar soap on ebay
Yes you can use Zote but I would advise against the Tide bar as it does not have all natural ingredients plus it cost more which defeats the whole purpose of saving money.
Valerie Collins
Tide gives you much clear clothes I don't think $2.50 a bar will break any body
Hello, I’m just curious why we have to wait for 4 hrs before we blend it. I watched another video where she put the small pieces of fels naptha soaked in water in the blender, added the borax & washing soda & water then blended it and it’s done.
Everyone does a method that works best for them.
Can I add Oxi Clean and baking soda to the recipe, I've made a powder laundry soap and I want to try this but I want to add baking soda and oxy clean. Thank you
Don’t add Oxiclean.
I know this is an older video but did have a ?
Did you put the Naptha in the fridge or something prior to grating it? It seems to instantly soften up when I blend it.
Thanks :)
Mr Greyhound it’s because of the heat from the motor blades. You can just pulse it a few seconds at a time
only laundry soap i do make is the powder laundry soap i love it.
Lydia Nannen what is your dry recipe that u use??
@@AngieTali - Liquid is better!
Can you write out this list so I can share it with my parents at the DayCare Center. I can't be long on this computer at work so this written out list would help me.
Thank you.
1 Fels-Naptha soap bar
1 Cup - Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda*
½ Cup Borax
Grate soap or break into pieces and process in a food processor until powdered. Mix all ingredients. For light load, use 1 Tablespoon. For regular load, use 2 Tablespoons. For heavy or heavily soiled load, use 3 Tablespoons.
Yields: 3 Cups detergent. (Approx. 40 loads) *Arm & Hammer "Super Washing Soda" Baking Soda will not work, nor will Arm & Hammer Detergent - It must be sodium carbonate!! Soap Alternatives; You can use Ivory, Sunlight, Kirk's Hardwater Castile or Zote bars. Don't use heavily perfumed soaps. A dry version for printing sake.
Thanks for the video. When storing in an open space does the mixture liquify because it's in a cream form?
It shouldn't. I've often left mine open, and it's never liquefied
I have some that is 5 years ago and it is still creamy.
Hello, what size bar soap is it? I purchased a 5oz
