I enjoyed this video as it was visually informative and your recipe is very good. In your next video could you please speak up a little bit more and lower the music as sometimes it was hard to hear what you were saying.

I haven't tried lard yet, but tallow makes an excellent bar of soap. Maybe I'll try lard next? I wonder how different it would be?🤔

Hi fellow soapers, good news, you may use your soap after 24 to 48 hours! Especially when you fast cure in the oven at 170

[@islamoradahomestead]

Putting your oven on 170 is not curing it. It forces it to go through the gel phase. You can also do this with a heating pad. Your soap is safe to use typically after 48 hours it has saponified with or without additional heat, but it takes 4-6 weeks depending on your recipe to fully cure. That means all the chemical reactions have stopped and the water in it has evaporated making your soap last longer.
