Make Multiple Soap Batches in One Session (my tips and tricks)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2024
- Soap making can be lots of fun, but making multiple batches in one session can be daunting! In this video I’ll demonstrate how I go about making four batches of soap in one morning session, including all the preparation, recipes and the complete process from start to finish!
I hope you enjoy the video. I nearly wasn’t going to record this, it was just a regular soap making day at my house - but I’m glad I did! I hope it will appeal to the soap makers out there who are getting more serious about their craft and want to learn some tips on making multiple batches more efficiently. These are fairly straightforward ‘everyday’ soap recipes, using the room temperature cold process method.
New to soap making? This is important!
Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide (lyes) used in soap making, in granular or flake form or in solution with water/other liquids, as well as raw soap batter, are highly corrosive and require careful and attentive handling and the proper use of personal protective equipment.

I like the fact that you calculated everything on paper. More people should do that. It gets you more in touch with your soap. I'm lazy about that so I just made my own lye calculator. It does everything but the process of making it took over 300 hours. Afterwards I realized I was more in touch with my soap and my soap turned out much better much the same as you writing it down on paper. I hope you inspire many more people in writing it down.
Thank you, you'll love my next video coming out tomorrow :) Lots of paper calculations!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
I'll be sure and watch it. I don't suppose you know how to calculate hardness and conditioning without a soap calculator do you? If someone would just show that that would be a big hit with a lot of views.
Thanks for your suggestion - it's all in the oil choice! You need oils with lots of saturated fats to create a long lasting bar. I do plan a video on that soon.
Wow, 4 batches of soaps and the bread?! You are truly a great multi-tasker!!! Like you, I make soaps for myself and loved ones. There are lots soap makers out there with the fancy swirls and techniques. However, I can relate to your videos the most. Love all the colors and scents and thanks the recipes!!!
Thank you! I love to make the fancy swirly soaps too, but I'm a pragmatist, and simple, efficient methods really appeal to me most. Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
WOW,,IVE BEEN SOAPING FOR SEVERAL YEARS BUT I LEARNED TONS OF FANTASTIC TIPS THAT WILL MAKE MY WORK SIMPLER,,THANKS TO YOU..THANK YOU FOR SHARING🤗
It's not often that I watch an entire video while actually staring at the screen and not skipping through it, but this was so easy to watch, fun to learn, and I didn't even notice how long it was until it was over.
That's wonderful feedback, thank you.
You're a highly technical soap maker chemist. Congrats & thanks for your great works.
Wow, thank you!
Very nicely described 😘
Hi, Ma'am, enjoyed every bit of this video. It was so satisfying and soothing when you were cutting the bars and even arranging on the curing racks. I too keep the utensils for one day until the raw batter turns into soap then wash. But here I would like to share a tip with you that...I use a towel to wipe off the batter from all the equipment we use and keep that towel for one day then wash along with other clothes in the washing machine. Especially when you are using fragrance oils. (Please do not try this method if:-- baby clothes are there / too much micas or glitters or charcoal mixed in the batter / if the batter is unscented.) Jugs and cups all will be very clean when we use towel than tissues. And thereby we can avoid using tissue papers a lot. I have seen many soap makers using lots of tissue paper in one batch of soap making. All these are my experience and a gentle suggestion. Please ignore if not interested. Your soap bars look very perfect . Going to watch your video on how to match the size of mold and batter. Hope you are safe there. Take care. God bless you.
Regards, Yellow Rose Homemade Soaps.
Thank you so much for your suggestion, I love the idea of it! But doesn't the raw soap batter destroy your towels/other material? My understanding is that the raw batter would damage the cloth. I'd be curious to know if this has happened for you!
Thanks for the reply. No Ma'am, it won't. I too thought the same in the beginning so I kept one towel separately for the same purpose. Now I am not following that. I use different ones according to my convenience. Just try with an old one if you are really worried about it. I too don't want to put you in trouble. ☺☺ Hope you may find it easy.
Looking forward to your more helpful videos. Your smile is very energizing and voice too. Stay blessed always.
@@yellowrosehomemadesoaps Great idea! I always feel so guilty using so many paper towels when soaping. Im going to try it ;)
I too use a special wash cloth for wiping the jugs and utensils before washing.Great tip Bindhu.
Hey Bindhu!Where do you source your fragrance/colorants from? Do you sell your soaps?
Thank you, you make it look so easy. I’ve been watching for weeks waiting on my supplies.
This was so helpful. I can see how multiple batches can be efficient. I've not tried more than 2 in a session. Your tip on not washing the bowl in between batches was great as was the suggestion to whisk the essential oils in instead of using the stick blender. 💡 💡 Thank you, Michele
Gosh! Your voice is so soothing. And your video wasn't too fast or too long to watch.
Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for that will keep making soap maybe make larger batches at some stage I'm only beginning
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking your demonstration is fantastic. I shall be watching it more and more. Your method males more sense to me. It is not confusing. Thankyou.
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking hi..please advice if I have to make in small quantities like 100gm oils.how lye to water amount to be adjusted
As much as I love watching people make fancy soaps, I always make soap like yours and I think I enjoy watching the process even more.
I think you did a great job on the speed, editing and length of the video. It went along smoothly and was a very nice watch. 👍
Thank you so much Laura.
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking you're welcome. Thank you. 😊
That was fantablous!!!!!!! I loved everything about this video. Even more the simple fact that you were so clean with your work!!!! great job.
I had to watch this video again,because it has been a while since I’ve made a batch of soap. I swear each time I watch it I get more information from you. Thank you so much.
Thanks Christine :)
Hi Elly
It is really lovely to see you.
You inspire me a lot ,not to give up with soap making.
Nicely demonstrated and presented.A lot helpful.😊
Thank you so much, I'm very happy to help! :)
Lovely! 🌸
I love your tip on clean up by allowing the buckets and utensils to become soap first! Definitely helps prevent sink clogs with oils! Thank you for that!
Your voice is so pleasant. I love your accent! 🌼
Enjoy your day!

Oh thank you so much! You're very welcome. Take care over there x
Thank you for being always explicit and concise.
You're welcome, thank you.
Thank you Elly, your channel is my favourite ‘go to’ for soap recipes. I too am vegan and I love your down to earth, uncomplicated approach. Your videos are lovely, perfect pace and great instructions. Much appreciated. 🙏 Cathy x (Helensburgh, Scotland)
Elly, that was another winner! I think the speed was perfect.
Thanks Davey!
First video of yours that I have watched, and I loved it! You are my new best friend...haha. I have been making soap for a couple of months now, so your information helped consolidate my own learning, with a few extra bits. I liked your voice over, humour and down to earth demonstration. Thank you for sharing your recipes too. Going to check out your sourdough bread now!! Thats something I havent tried yet. Cheers.
Thank you so much Cath!
Gooday Elly i have made 2 of these beautifull soaps the Lavender and The Lemon myrtle
oh they are so beautiful so easy to work with. i did have to substitute the essential oil for Lemongrass. and i didnt have lavender powder so i just crushed up some lavender buds i had . i am so impressed with your vidoes and work !! you are an inspiration to me thankyou so much for sharing your craft. im glad i found you lol.
i dont know how to uplload photos to show you. but im preey proud of these soaps i made

That was wonderful. I loved the speed by the way. Your efficiency in the process and clean up was wonderful. I am hooked. Thank you so much for doing these. Plus your accent was so wonderful to listen to.
Thank you Jennifer, that's lovely! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
I really enjoyed watching this. It was so soothing and peaceful.
Oh thank you!
Thanks for the great informative video. I have watched all your videos and learnt so much before starting to make soap. I have made so far 3 batches and am loving it. 😊💖
Wonderful! That's great to hear Sandra, thank you.
Wonderful video. I love the rain and thunder in the background. Keep up the great work. Thanks a million for the recipes and for sharing.
Thanks so much Sherri
You made that look easy!! Thank you for making a video like this one. Love your explanations!
I enjoyed every second of this video, I may have caught the bug! and this was so easy to follow!! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
🙏👍🏾 you’re great. God bless you 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, you too :)
Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed this very much!
I'm so in love with your work! Thank you for sharing! ✨🤗
Thank you! 😊
Amazing effort and very enjoyable to watch, thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thank you :)
I wanted to get into soap making,
and started to become discouraged, then I came across your videos. You give great instructions and make it very easy to understand! I just made my first batch of soap, I did your Rose Geranium recipe. It smells great, and was fairly easy. Although my color turned out a little more brown, but it was just my first batch! Then I tried making the Castile soap. I did a half a batch in silicon muffin pans, they’re a little off white, but I think it’s because I did not use distilled or demineralized water. That might be why my first batch turned out brown too. Love your channel! Thank you for posting, you do a great job making videos and teaching how to make things.
Thank you so much for your feedback :)
Thanks so much for kindly sharing your personal soap recipes
You are a great soaper and teacher. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
11:24 Okay this is gold! I was always wondering about that (weight and volume ratio). Thank you so much for the link and all that info.
You're very welcome!
Maiköl Verasson where is the link and info?
I love your videos bcoz you have such a lovely voice, it's like a therapy to listen to your narrative 🤣 you could be some sort of a wellbeing therapist 💕
And very informative too!!!
Oh that's so wonderful to hear! Thank you! I actually am a type of therapist in my day job :)
I agree totally
I was thinking the same thing! This is my first time watching one of her videos and now I’m ready for another!!!
That was fun! Thanx for showing your process and recipes!!
You are so welcome!
I'm just getting started and this is so helpful out of every video I watched. Thank you! Really enjoyed!
Thank you Marcia, I'm so glad to help! :)
Awesome video! Thank you so much! I've been making skincare products for years, but have just started making bar soap. I love that your soap is vegan, scented with essential oils and palm oil free! I'm interested in making an activated charcoal soap too. Do you have a video of that? I'm also glad to know that you don't have to be so exact with the temperature of the oils and lye (a book I read said that the temps have to be between 100-110 F). Anyway, I loved your video! Thank you for sharing!
THank you, I'm glad you appreciate my soap making style! I am vegan so that's important, also I've never used palm oil in my soaps. I've never made a charcoal soap, but that's a great video idea! I'm sure you could just add some charcoal powder to your soap batter - very easily done. No, you don't need to be exact with the temperatures for soft oil soaps like these. It doesn't matter at all! Soaps with hard butters and oils are a bit trickier, they do need to be melted properly and warmed so that the butters don't solidify before they saponify. Thanks again :)
I loved watching this. Beautiful soaps. Great tip for the clean up👍I'm definitely doing this. It's always an oily mess in my sink the day of. Great channel!
Thanks so much! 😊
Never watched anything as soap making+ after soap making process ever!!! Thank you so much 🥰
Thank you, you're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Thank you so much for your dedication and passion. God bless you.
I learned a lot more power and more like...
That was so interesting. A bit of “lockdown “ joy! Thank you Elly
Thank you Trisha, I'm really glad you liked it! It was fun to make - SO much editing! Good practice for me ;)
All of the information has translated well. The visual is very clear. The sound is very clear. All of the information that's needed has been communicated really well. Bravo.
As a lady that I used to do a lot of work for used to say "always share information like you're trying to explain it to aliens" although why aliens would land on earth and want to put on a ballet is beyond me? 🙄
Thank you again, you're very kind! I did ballet and musicals/dance performance for many many years, so I think I understand!
Yes very much informative video. Such a talented and jovial lady. 👍🌟
M
I found this video so lovely and calming, thank you!
You’re welcome 😊
Elly, that was so very calming to watch. You voice is therapy for the soul after a long work day. You've inspired me to make my own for my beautiful friends and family.
Thanks so much Heidi, that's so nice for me to hear. Take care.
Love the "coffee" part 😀. Btw do you mind share where to get good fragrance oil in australia ? I cant find a good one here in jkt. Thanks Elly.
Thank you. To be honest I rarely use fragrance oils, but I buy all of my essential oils and fragrance oils (haven't bought those for years) from Escentials of Australia.
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking thank you
Thank you for this wonderful and most informative video, once again. You make it look so easy for the begginer soap makers. Thank you for the recipes. They all came out beautifully, especially the 🍋 bar soap! Loved that color
Thank you :)
It's so funny, to an American ear it sounds like Nicole Kidman narrates your videos!
Hehe that's so funny. And a great compliment! I think maybe our voices are a bit similar. But I'm a bit more ocker ;)
just love your soaps and watching you work ! your an awesome soapmaker thankyou for sharing with us xx
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. I appreciate it! :)
Thank you so much for your kindness for sharing your recipe with every detail possible 🙏
My pleasure 😊
WOW! I so enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing your tips and tricks.
You're welcome JoAnn, thanks!
BEST SOAP VIDEO I have watched so far...I'm new to SOAP-MAKING and I've really enjoyed watching this!
Wow, thank you!
Love your videos! So easy to understand.
There is nothing more neat than watching soap being made and cut! I love the crinkle cutter you have. I have to say, I made the beginner’s cold process soap recipe that you posted a video of in the past, and I am LOVING how they turned out!! I don’t think I would have been as confident if I hadn’t come across you and your helpful, wonderful videos! Scratch that. I definitely would not have been as confident. I may not have ever tried it. So once again, grateful for your posts and videos and your recipes!!! Recipes seem rare and hard to find online, so I’m so happy you post yours! Thank you again! 💕
You're very welcome Heather, thank you! I'm so glad you're finding my videos helpful. I really appreciate you taking the time to provide such lovely feedback too. Thank you :)
Something really amazing to see your soap making and your audio on that . Thanks 🙏, R.Wagan
Thank you!
I could watch your videos all day. Very informative! You have such a likable personality and soothing voice. I found myself smiling and laughing with you. I'll be sure to watch your other videos for more great tips. Thank you for sharing your ideas and recipes!
Oh, thank you so much!
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I've watched your videos 100s of times as you make it so clear ❤
oh, wow! Thank you so much, Monica. :)
Thanks Elly! Even though I've been making soap for 20+ years, I loved watching your process! So much like my own! 🙂
Oh thank you! That's so nice to hear :)
Hi I popped back to have another look, I've been practising soap making about 7 batches so far the first batch was you lavender soap for beginner's it went perfectly to plan. then your coconut soap where I started to over stick blend so I was plopping batter instead of pouring in to the moulds, I made the coconut soap again and hand whisked it today, Then I decided to go look at some soap making video's ending up watching this one again, I picked up your message a few times about the thin trace, then just whisk in fragrance. Practice,Practice , love your Coconut soap recipe by the way I gave some of my first batch away and been using it hence had to make some more. Thanks
Thanks for filming your full soapmaking process in this video. I'm really enjoy watching the video 🌾😊
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
I love all your videos including this one. It was a great very well explained easy to follow demonstration. Very enjoyable! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes & this video demo. Elly as always very much appreciated.
Thank you so much Fiona :)
Love this easy to do soap making. Thank you!
Your video is sooooo helpful to new people learning how to make soap. Every little trick, comment, helpful info., etc. were things I had not seen in other videos and as a newbie I found it all so very helpful. Thank you for sharing so much wonderful information!!! The calm voice during explanation makes it so soothing and easy to understand. I REALLY appreciate all that you shared. THANKS!!
Thanks so much Lisa! So happy to recieve that feedback. Thank you.
Thanks Elly. You are a great lady. You explain things wonderfully with minute details.
Thank you.
Great speed and commentary👍 you have a very relaxed approach. Thank you 👍👍
Thank you so much Chris, that's great feedback.
Thanks Elly for another great video. Always enjoy your videos and the speed was perfect.
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. I wasn't quite sure but thought it would be ok :)
Your tutorial is amazing! So detailed and easy to understand. Sending love... ❤
Very nicely done, all the way through! Very calming to watch and listen to. Thank you!

Wow, thank you!
So lovely to see a fellow Aussie soaping! Loved your video😁
Bless you for sharing.
Thank you Sharon, I appreciate that!
So soothing.I now want to make my own soap
This is the best and most informative soap making video I’ve seen thus far and interesting enough that it kept my attention. A real joy to watch, thank you. :)
Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I truly enjoy listing to you. Thank you for all the amazing tips Elly! 💜
Thank you Debbie, you're most welcome :)
Love watching your work.
Thank you so much 😀
I love your soap videos, I could watch them all day. This one is my favourite so far. 😊
Thank you so much Elizabeth, that's wonderful!
I so appreciate the fact you are sharing your recipes with us. Many channels do not because they sell their soaps and do not want us replicating their product which is understandable but many of us simply want to be self sustaining as much as we can and enjoy the knowledge... Thanks you. 🙏
You're very welcome.
That was so satisfying to watch. Thanks for putting that together!
You're welcome! I thought it was worth it :)
love your videos. I'm exited to see your video and matching batch size to mold. Many thanks.
Thank you, I'm happy to say I have made that video! You can find it here ruclips.net/video/ZguW6J3Jj2Q/видео.html
Thank you so much, I enjoyed so much to see your video , you did a great soaps .🙏
Thank you so much for your willingness to share all your expertise with us, especially your down to earth technical helps. It's been a wealth of knowledge for me as I'm trying to start making soaps. I feel more equipped and less anxious about trying to make my first batch of soap! You are a lovely person, and I love hearing your soothing voice. Been to Darwin, Australia twice long ago for the Arafura Games when I was a teen, representing the U.S. territory of Guam in the sport of tennis. Would love to visit Australia again with my three teens someday! May God bless you!
Thank you so much Tomoko, that's so wonderful. Appreciate your kind words :)
I love your organization
I loved the video, this pre shot videos gives the artist a calmer way to gather their thoughts and explain things, some people take to long to explain or too much background noise, this was very calming to watch
Thank you Jane
Kiaora Elley⚘
That was an absolute joy to watch, thanku.

I Love your videos Elly. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and great skills with us.
Thank you for sharing! This was great to watch and I love how you clean as you go!
Thank you, yes cleaning as you go makes it a lot easier in the long run :)
I've always loved watching your videos... Your video on "how to use the soap calculator taught me how to calculate recipe", you are really a good teacher and I love your works, simple and impacting, always loved the simple things. I've been soaping now for about 7months and I now make bathing and laundry soaps for my family. It's so fulfilling. I just made my first body butter 2days ago and will soon try lotions.
Thanks for the encouragement, keep up the good work. Stay safe and blessed. Mariam from Nigeria.
Oh Mariam thank you so much, it's wonderful for me to read that. I'm very happy that my videos have helped you. Greetings from Australia to you in Nigeria :)
Elly, I absolutely love your videos and just subscribed to your channel! You are quite the excellent teacher and definitely have a passion for your craft. Thanks so much for taking time to share such valuable knowledge with us all--I enjoy seeing the different types of soaps you create!
Thank you Charles, you're very welcome!
Totally enjoy watching. Such a refreshing and uplifting presentation. And totally like the way its sped up for the viewers.
Thanks Susan, glad you enjoyed it :)
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking .....your welcome Elly!
I recently piicked back up making a few batches for myself and friends after a five year break and your presentations have inspired me. I followed the carrot/tumeric step by step and love it ... I soak in every tip - like using iceblocks etc. You really seem to have alot of knowledge and experience and you mentioned you used to make alot of soap. Im quite interested about your past affiliation with soaping. I feel sure other watchers would also. Maybe while youre demonstating you could share abit about it. Thanks
Thanks Susan, I really appreciate that feedback. I'm going to tell a bit more of my story next year, This year has been so busy with my job and keeping the channel going, I've just been sticking to the basics and sharing recipes. I'll have more time to think things through and share more of a variety of things next year. Thanks for your suggestion - I love it!
Loved watching you make all the soaps!!!
Thanks :)
That was the most beautiful process I’ve seen. This is so inspirational! I know I want to try. Seems like such a satisfying fulfilling practice!!! I wish I could have tried the lemon!!!
Thank you Veronica! That's a lovely comment :)
Elly,
I love all your videos!
Thank you for making it all so EASY.
You are such a good teacher and know exactly how to explain things so that even I can make soap!
Glad to see your healthy and well during this very unique time.
Looing forward to whats next ;)
Thank you, yes I'm glad to be faring quite well though this time. It's very difficult for so many though, I feel for everyone who's lost their employment. Thanks again! I think I have a bread video next :)
Where have you been learning all this Elly?
Its so much new information your techniques are just brilliant. I don’t feel ANY stress looking at your videos. So relaxing. Thank you!
That's such great feedback, thank you. I am self-taught. Lots of time spent reading online, books, watching youtube videos, reading forums etc.!
I absolutely love your videos and I adore you! Thanks so much for sharing! I’m attempting my soap making as soon as I get my oils!!
Wonderful! Thanks Kirsten. Have fun :)
