A standard kitchen knife will work fine. I avoid serrated edges because smooth blades tend to cut easier for me. Stirring utensil such as a spoon Hurrah! I have now made 4 batches of soap and am well on my way to being dangerously addicted ;) Christmas presents are sorted for this year haha! I’m just struggling to get my head around a couple of things. Firstly, I bought a silicone mould with 12 individual bars instead of a loaf, and am struggling to get it to gel. Either that or I’m just not recognising gel when I see it. I’m wrapping it up with 3 or 4 towels and heating the oils & lye to 45C. Ought that to be hot enough for individual moulds? Once you have made some melt and pour soap bars that you love, you might just get the bug. If that happens, and you want to make more, you can save a small fortune by purchasing your MP soap in bulk straight from the manufacturers.

Nothing too special is needed here. Just keep in mind the melt and pour soap base melts at about 140 F degrees. This means metal spoons left in for long enough will get hot and any plastic stirrers will need to be heat resistant to at least 180 F degrees, which is about how hot the soap will get if you melt it in short bursts.

But if you feel up to it (which I have a feeling you are), I would suggest substituting 100g of the shortening for Shea Butter, then the rest can be substituted for more coconut oil (so 280g more). Be sure to run it through the lye calculator again before deciding how much lye and water you’ll need. If you don’t feel ready to use shea butter yet, just substitute it all for coconut. Maybe you can use Shea in your next batch!

Hi Cindy, it sounds like something must have gone wrong here. You say that you used shea butter, so this does change the recipe quite a bit and alters the required lye and water. I’m wondering how much shea butter was used and if you ran it through the the soap recipe calculator. Reply Once you add the Lye to water it creates a small chemical reaction, some choking fumes will rise from your bowl. This is the area that concerns most people, but all you need to do is keep your face away from these fumes while you stir the lye solution and try to not breathe them in. You could use a mask here if you want.

The lye is made from water (or water combined with other liquids) and an alkali. For hard bars of soap the alkali is sodium hydroxide, for liquid soaps the alkali is potassium hydroxide. Safety advice for handling lye With your protective gear on, i.e. rubber household gloves and safety glasses or goggles, gently sprinkle the measured lye INTO the water. NOT the other way around. *** When starting out making handmade soap, you may feel that you need to use your own recipes. The issue with that is that beginners are generally unaware of why certain oils are chosen for soap recipes, and in what ratio. That’s why I believe that beginners should always use tried and tested recipes at first. Including the three further on below.
