This is really helpful as I didn't know you could start rebatching immediately after the first process and didn't need to wait for it to solidify and grate. Thanks!
Thanks. This just happened to me I use essential oils eucalyptus, lemon, & peppermint. And it has a layer of oil 😳. It’s been 12 hr so far. Don’t look good. 😂
Soap making is one of the homesteading skills we are a little intimated to try...this was incredibly helpful...so when we do make soap we have one less way to fail 😂
I threw away two loaves when they separated. I also have had mild separation. But nothing I have ever rebatched ever looked as bad as yours. So you’ve given me back faith in my abilities. I say this with thanks, to you for showing us how we can fail and can fix!❤️
My coconut oil and sodium hydroxide base is not melting. While I put it in Microwave, becoming bubbling but not no liquide. If I cool it becoming hard. Please help me.
Hi, Andrea! I sometimes make soap with a friend of mine .So the day before yesterday, we tried to make a batch using coconut milk instead of water, but we didn't freeze the milk and when we added the lye ,I think it scorched as it looked like spoilt milk. The temperatures were right, and decided to go ahead anyway. When we combined the lye to the oils, it became ricy ,with a lot of clumps and a lot of oils separated.We mixed only a little as it became stiff right away,but we put it in the mold anyway. We also mixed an avocado in the oils beforehand. We also added cucumber fragrance oil. What do you think happened? Could it be fixed using HP method? It is now in the mold with a a lot of seperated oils....😢
My soap I had everything correct measurement wise however I had a false trace so I have pockets of heavy lye and oils that hadn't fully mixed. Would this work rebatching do I need to mix to trace again while it's hot and how long is cure time?
I’ve made two batches of soap so far and had to re batch both because they were so mushy 😩 I think I need to start using a different recipe. My first re batch turned out nice and I’m working on my second one now.
I've made lots of soap and never had an issue, but made soap today and had a super seize. I poured it and pushed it into a mold but it was horrible. I'm blaming it on the lye temperature was too high for the fragrance oil I was using. I'm hoping to save it somehow, it was a 14 pound batch. Thanks for letting me know it happens to all of us. I was pretty discouraged.
Interesting....I have never attempted making soap....I would like to....the lye always scares me and holds me back.... maybe u already have but if u haven't it would be interesting to watch and learn from start to finish how u make soap. Oh I know Ben asked on a live about if we r more apt to buy from ur store or online....I would buy online ,👍
I agree with you Vivian .... would love a video on how she makes soap .... I too am scared of lye ... so I buy melt and pour and make it that way. Years ago I was going to take a weekend course on soap making at the John Campbell Folk School in NC but just couldn’t afford it .... on the bucket list !!!! Have a blessed day !
i made a soap with rice milk from the supermarket and it was a mess, i understand now that this is because there is no rice milk in these bottles just chemical products
the change of the season is killing me! I have had "soft" batches so many times in the past month and I don't get it. I'm gonna have to switch up my recipe. Thanks for this!
Have the same issue sometimes with cinnamon oil in a hard candy my family used to make annually for Christmas. The water/sugar/karo syrup mixture is heated to hard crack, color paste is then added and an flavor/scent oil mixed in well. Next pour out on a hot flat buttered griddle where on e person cuts chunks off as it begins to cool and set. 6 or so other women take those chunks and cut smaller. When done, you have a large bowl of colored broken glass looking hard candy. Each woman brings a quart mason jar with lid, a cookie sheet and kitchen scissors and takes home her tools and a share of the candy made. We always sent the men to watch a movie or game. Great fellowship time, but we usually had one or two batches with cinnamon that would refuse to set up.
Thank you for sharing. I have my first batch that I didn’t cut well that I’d like to re-batch. I’m so new to the soap making world but hope in time I can also be able to sell my creations as in time also help others. God Bless
stumbled upon your channel. am hoping to soon start making soap. happily subscribed.. will be coming back lol. do come on over and visit when you've time.
Thanks for your video. It's given me confidence to rebatch some of my 'fails'. Curious at the stage before you're pouring it into the molds...could I pulse it with the stick blender to perhaps get a smoother texture? Thanks :)
Thank you so much! This happen to me and I didn’t know what I did wrong! You wouldn’t believe I use the same essential oils that you mentioned. You just helped me out a whole lot!
What if I didn’t wait long enough for my lye to cool within 10 degrees of my oils? It ended up looking like applesauce and now that it’s hard it’s very oily. Assuming I’m correct and the temperature is where I went wrong then could I just crock pot rebatch without adding anything?
I made soap yesterday for the first time and this happened, so I really appreciate the help in fixing it! I need to take a few breaths and get it in the crock pot :/ God bless you :)
Well I was intimidated by soap making but I was also intimidated by rendering lard. Today I am in the process of rendering lard from the hog we bought and had butchered thanks to your video and the one Sarah from Living Traditions made. I am much older than you both but you ladies are teaching me new things all the time. May try soap sometime.
I’m new to soap making. So far never had an issue with any of my batch until now. My son asked me for a cinnamon roll inspired soap and after using cinnamon essential oil on my batch it just begun to separate. I had solid soap on the bottom of the mold and a lot of liquid oil on top. When looking for a solution to fix my problem i found your video. Thank you very much for your tips. I will now subscribe to your channel.
Thank Youuuuuuu!!!! ❤ I made double the recipe for a 6.25 pound recipe and of course I forgot to double the lye amount 😑 so right now my loafs look like jello kinda see through and very oily. Oil just oozing out when I tried unmolding. So thank you for your video you give me hope to save what I can and don’t throw away all this costly material.
I made soap yesterday, it's been 24 hrs and it's like a gel consistency. I'm thinking the problem is the orange and lemon essential oils I used. Do you think putting it in the crockpot for a few hours and repouring into molds will help? Glad I found your video! Thanks for the info.
I made a batch of 4 purple molds yesterday and I made a mistake with the amount of lye water. I did not put enough so my soap is too soft. I will definately melt it, add the missing amount of lye water and re-mold it and hope for the best. Thank you!! ❤
Interestingly, the few times I've worked with essential oils, when I've had irritated skin, seems clove was around, didn't touch the oil of course, but I have always blamed clove essential oil that itchy skin.
Now you’ve got me in the mood to make some soap! Thanks for sharing on how to rebatch. Haven’t had to do it this far but I’m sure it will happen one day. Lol 😂
This what I searched for!. I made my soap this evening and found some small bubbles in dough. I'm looking up for the rebatching method but every video is all about grated the solidified soap and not mention the cons for rebatching. I don't have problem about trace, but the bubbles. I think for smooth one, but now I think it still ok with some bubbles since the rebatching give bubbles as well
Today was my first time I made a cold process soap and it turned into mashed potatoes as soon as i started blended the lye and oils. I wanted to make a blend of white and pink swirls and it was a disaster. I came i across your video to see if i could still save my lumpy block that is still curring. Thanks for your video 😊
I use the leftover piece’s that are too small to wash our face with ( each person has a jar to put the piece’s in) so each person gets a special soap with the smells they like. So this is great and appreciated I’m learning to make soap w fire ash, which is another traditional way of making soap. I adding on natural herbs and dried flowers, natural pigment colors like which adds earthly color a tad extra coconut oil and essential oil’s for each person.( in case you were concerned about using soap by another person lol we each have a marked jar to collect piece’s for re-batching❤ this was very s informative thank you
Thank you so much for this info, I just experienced for the first time the volcano on a batch of cold processed soap 😱, it’s in the crockpot now, hope I can save it
This just happened to me for the first time. It was greasy like I'd never added the lye. Full grease loaf. I just learned from Soaping101 channel, that some oils are unsaponifiable, I did not know that, and I used hemp oil for the first time and at 20%!! Maybe it would be alright at a lower percentage. I did run my recipe through soapcalc, too, I don't think it's programmed for unsaponifiable oils. This is a new thing for me, never used fancy oils for me, I'm pretty simple with soapmaking up to now lol!
I believe I used to much oil & butters maybe not enough lye water, can I still take this approach and can I do it in a double boiler instead of a crockpot
I did 2 batches, neen and noni, they did set but there was so much oil on top which never happened when I used Bells Chemicals lye. But now am using Red Crown, I am having few problems.
It could be the brand of lye but it also could be if the neen and Noni if those are sents. Sometimes different sents react differently. I’m not sure what those are though.
Hi. Sooo, recooking does what? (If the same ingredients that caused the problem in the first place are still in the product you are just reheating). Nice video on making soap. To get rid of air pockets, have you considered running a chopstick or bamboo skewer thru soap in molds?. Just a thought. Peace to you and yours
This video was so helpful! I just made a batch yesterday and used fragrance oils for the first time. I had no idea this would hyper-accelerate my trace and give me a false trace. I was left with a very oily, soft bar. I will try rebatching for the first time!
You are so knowledgeable Andrea. I enjoy your videos so much! Do you sell/ship your soaps? I would be interested in buying some. Have a blessed day. ❤️🙏
This literally just happened to me on my very first batch ever and rice is a great way to describe it. I glooped in into the molds anyway and then put in fridge. Now it looks like cottage cheese but firm with oily residue in the bottom of the mold. I'm thinking a rebatch in the crockpot might just help to pull it all back together. My lye solution with the goat milk turned out so great but the other oils were the problem and I hadn't even added the scented oil in yet. The batch was gritty and gross. I threw it all together and into the mold anyway. I will now throw it inti the crockpot and see what happens as it was a 5 pound batch! :O Thank you so much, fingers crossed for something a little better than what I have now. :)
Can I add camel or goat milk powder as additive when rebatching a soft oil heavy soap lot? I tried making one with higher amount of soft oils to see how it turns out but even after a week it's still a bit soft .... I can press into it and leave a dent.
i just rebatched a soap, put it in a pot but acidently my mom left the heat bit hotter and the soap started thickening and started giving off a weird scent. what is that process do u know
Have you thought of using a wire cheese slicer to trim off the top of your re batched soap to make it smooth? Could you not then use the cut off bits and make a liquid soap? Just wondering

I don't make soap but I love homemade soaps. Well, I just learned something new, this fine morning. Have an amazing day and God bless.
My coconut oil and sodium hydroxide base is not melting. While I put it in Microwave, becoming bubbling but not no liquide. If I cool it becoming hard.
Please help me.
I would love to make my own soap. It is not in the cards for me. Love and Hugs from Sapulpa Oklahoma

Not oily pockets. That is glycerin. Just a few times it has happened to me too. Enjoy your blessed day..................... Love, in Pennsylvania
Thank you for posting this video! You SAVED my batch of soap. And, like you, I had used clove and orange oil. Never again. :(
I’ve made two batches of soap so far and had to re batch both because they were so mushy 😩 I think I need to start using a different recipe. My first re batch turned out nice and I’m working on my second one now.
This just happened to me!!! Thankyou for this!! I like the primitive look! It definitely has it's place in home soap making.
you made my day, thank you.

I find soap making fascinating. I have used goat milk soap; however, I was unaware it came from cow's milk as well.
I didn't even know there was milk in it!
i put my pot on high and get it warm,,,i dont add anything at all,,i use the blender...then it whips up ...your did not need anything
i made a soap with rice milk from the supermarket and it was a mess, i understand now that this is because there is no rice milk in these bottles just chemical products

How do I fix the soap If the soap is too soft? How would I add a hard butter?

I just had this problem with orange which brought me here
Would love to see a video of you making soap. I've wanted to make but haven't yet
Awesome video.
Always nice to know if there is a method to recover when things don't go to plan.

Assuming I’m correct and the temperature is where I went wrong then could I just crock pot rebatch without adding anything?
yes rebatch. getting the temps closer together is very important
It looks like your oil and lye solution didn't emulsify properly.
I rebatch when I use lye made from ash.
I made soap yesterday for the first time and this happened, so I really appreciate the help in fixing it! I need to take a few breaths and get it in the crock pot :/ God bless you :)
You’re welcome!! You can do it!
Could you share the recipe? Its so interesting. I would love to make my own soap! Thanks for sharing your videos!

My lard turned out great milky white.
All Soaps are Reshaped when Used
Probably would have been fine just give it another week to dry, maybe put it outside in the sun or something
Have you ever made soap?
Mine is like a soft peanut butter fudge and I'm pretty sure it's because we put the lye in to hot it was 160 degrees
It actually turned out to get firmer I hadn't waited 24 hours but I still made a bunch of rebatch and I got it to the silky I did small batches
Mine is still really soft I did it with natural palm oil and lye water I don’t know how to fix it it’s just like mashed potatoes 😢
Did you use a specific recipe? Soap recipes are very very specific.
Thank you

Rebatching for the same mistake.... Usted bergamot... But Rebatching aparently saved it

Hi!,when lye is heavy and i want to do rebatching,do i have to add some ingredient in it?
No just heat and pour
Now you’ve got me in the mood to make some soap! Thanks for sharing on how to rebatch. Haven’t had to do it this far but I’m sure it will happen one day. Lol 😂
Question... when everything was melted... in stead of staring it ..could you stick blended?
It's clove oil.
Now I know how those homemade soaps are made. Awesome
well if you can make a mess I can usually do that. Thanks for showing how to fix it. I have not seen a liquid soap rebatched. very nice video.
Thank you for sharing this! You’re saving me a double batch of triple cream goats milk soap😔
27 June 2021 .. thanks. Just made a new batch that didn't work, after at least 10 batches that DID work.

yes I never try and alter recipes for this reason. Not that it is wrong to do, I am just afraid of losing all my ingredients.
I believe I used to much oil & butters maybe not enough lye water, can I still take this approach and can I do it in a double boiler instead of a crockpot
The lye to oil ratio is very specific. I have never tried a double boiler so I hope it works!
@@VWFamilyFarm thanks I used the crockpot
Primitive lookin is not necessarily a con. Just depends on perspective
Great video, I haven't tried to make soap but it's on my list. I'm pretty sure I will be referring back to this video.
The soap you sent us previously had cinnamon. Not sure if that helps or not.
Hi Andrea. Gosh, when that had all melted in the crockpot, it looked like a beautiful gravy as you were stirring it.
Thank you for sharing it. I found it helpful since I have a pot of soap ready for rebatching.
I did 2 batches, neen and noni, they did set but there was so much oil on top which never happened when I used Bells Chemicals lye. But now am using Red Crown, I am having few problems.
It could be the brand of lye but it also could be if the neen and Noni if those are sents. Sometimes different sents react differently. I’m not sure what those are though.
I understand NOTHING about making soap. But this was a very interesting video. May need to try my hand at soap making sometime.
I just started have a go it’s so much fun and I gave some pretty basic soaps sitting curing.
I enjoyed your video today about soap. Thanks for sharing you're good at what you do on the videos
i dont make soap yet but i think i would like to try morning honey glad to see u today
Andrea you would say it was an hour and it had only been a few seconds. :)
Thanks, Andrea! This hasn't happened to me yet, but it's inevitable that it will. Now I know what to do when it happens.
I wish I came across this before one ended up in the bin
Hi. Sooo, recooking does what? (If the same ingredients that caused the problem in the first place are still in the product you are just reheating). Nice video on making soap. To get rid of air pockets, have you considered running a chopstick or bamboo skewer thru soap in molds?. Just a thought. Peace to you and yours
It helps it to homogenize it as where it didn’t before
This video was so helpful! I just made a batch yesterday and used fragrance oils for the first time. I had no idea this would hyper-accelerate my trace and give me a false trace. I was left with a very oily, soft bar. I will try rebatching for the first time!
Thankyou. Very helpful. I am about to rebatch. I prefer your rustic rebatch. It looks like art, not a mistake correction
Thank you!
You are so knowledgeable Andrea.
I enjoy your videos so much!
Do you sell/ship your soaps? I would be interested in buying some.
Have a blessed day. ❤️🙏
Yes. I’ve sold it online before, and am trying to make enough so that it will be available in our future store
You just helped me figure out why my cinnamon orange soap wouldn’t harden! It’s the cinnamon essential oil! Thank you

This literally just happened to me on my very first batch ever and rice is a great way to describe it. I glooped in into the molds anyway and then put in fridge.

Can I add camel or goat milk powder as additive when rebatching a soft oil heavy soap lot? I tried making one with higher amount of soft oils to see how it turns out but even after a week it's still a bit soft .... I can press into it and leave a dent.
I have never added anything when rebatching.
i just rebatched a soap, put it in a pot but acidently my mom left the heat bit hotter and the soap started thickening and started giving off a weird scent. what is that process do u know
I don’t know what it’s called, but I’m sure its fine.
Great video, very well done and very pleasant to watch.
Have you thought of using a wire cheese slicer to trim off the top of your re batched soap to make it smooth? Could you not then use the cut off bits and make a liquid soap? Just wondering
You could trim it off to make it smooth but you couldn’t make something that would stay a liquid.
