What are the methods for making homemade soap?

The main materials for making handmade soap are oil and alkaline liquid. However, by making it manually, the oil and alkaline liquid can react with saponification. This kind of handmade soap can not only be used to wash the face, but also for bathing. The foam of handmade soap is very delicate and rich, which can effectively clean the oil deep in the pores, making the skin more moisturized. So what are the methods of making soap at home?

First, what are the methods for making homemade soap at home? First, put the oil and alkali in a container and stir until the trace is formed before putting it into the mold. After the oil and sodium hydroxide solution are mixed and stirred for a period of time, the soap liquid will gradually thicken and become as thick as mayonnaise. At this time, if you use a stainless steel spoon or a stirring rod to hook up the soap liquid and draw an "8" on the surface of the soap liquid, the dripping soap liquid will leave an obvious trace. This state is called "trace". This is the most important step in making handmade soap. If it is not done well, the whole thing will be ruined. If the consistency is not enough, the saponification reaction will not be complete, which will easily cause the separation of oil and water, or the soap made will be too soft. If it is too thick, it will be difficult to put into the mold, or it will even clump before being put into the mold. Now we start making molds. We can use milk cartons or jelly boxes as molds, which is considered recycling. Leave it until dry, remove from the mold and cut the soap.

Second, the preparation of utensils and methods for making soap with waste oil. 1. Prepare the utensils: 1. An old pot that is still usable (either a stainless steel pot or an enamel pot will do). 2. A wooden or bamboo stick (longer), or a mixer (electric egg beater). 3. Porcelain cups or heat-resistant containers, containers for subpackaging (aluminum foil bags, tofu boxes), masks, gloves, scales, and measuring cups. 2. Materials: 1000cc of waste cooking oil, 390cc of water, 145g of sodium hydroxide, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour 3. Method 1. Pour 390cc of cold water into a porcelain cup. 2. Add one tablespoon of salt and one tablespoon of sugar into water and mix well. 3. Pour caustic soda into water and mix well to dissolve. 4. Pour 1000cc of oil into the pot. 5. Pour the water in the porcelain cup into the oil and beat with a mixer for 10-15 minutes. Add flour during stirring (the liquid should cover the base of the mixer). 6. Pour it into the mold for 3 days, then pour it out and place it in a ventilated place. 7. Available after half a month. IV. Notes ※ Stir thoroughly and evenly for complete effect. ※Fully understand the chemical properties and hazards of caustic soda.

What are the methods for making homemade soap at home? The above is an introduction to the production methods. Please note: when caustic soda is not in use, it should be placed in a plastic bottle, kept dry and in a cool place. Use a porcelain or plastic spoon and wear gloves and a mask and place on dry paper. Watch out for children and keep away from caustic soda.
