STEP
ONE:Suit up in safety gear (goggles, gloves) and make sure all
kids and pets are not in the general area. Measure out the lye and
water amounts. Slowly and carefully add the lye to the water. Stir
until the water turns clear again and set aside. Do not breathe the
lye fumes.
STEP TWO:Melt (when necessary), measure and combine your oils (often referred to as ‘Fixed Oils‘).
STEP THREE:Once the oils and the lye water have cooled to below 54 degrees (and ideally are within 5 degrees of each other), carefully pour the lye water into the fixed oils. Pour the lye water down the shaft of the blender to avoid air bubbles.
STEP FOUR:“Burp”the stick blender by tapping on the base of the container to release any additional air bubbles. Pulse the stick blender to mix the oils and the lye water initially, then hold the mechanism at continuous blending until the soap reaches trace. Make sure your stick blender is fully submerged in the soap before turning it on, lest you end up with fresh soap batter all over your kitchen!
STEP FIVE:Once the soap has reached trace pour the soap into your mold. Tamp the mold on your work surface to release any air bubbles. Note: Trace is the time that you’ll add any color or fragrance additives. Always hand stir them in and start with the color before the fragrance oil.
STEP SIX:Allow the soap to stay in the mold for 24-48 hours. Unmold, cut, and cure for 4-6 weeks."
