Make 100% Olive Oil Soap: Castile Soap Tutorial

Описание: Join me as I make natural handmade soaps using only olive oil- in other words making castile soaps.

Recipe:
Olive oil: 180 ml
NaOH: 24.5 gr
Water: 40 ml ** (Read below)

**Soap Maker’s Note:
This recipe uses 40 ml of water, which is a 22% water-to-oil ratio (a severe water discount). Water discounting makes soap trace and thicken faster, helps it harden more quickly, and reduces curing time- but it also leaves less time for swirls and may cause the batter to seize if we are not careful.

👉 It is recommended to always run your formula through a soap calculator (such as SoapCalc) to adjust the correct water and lye weight for your oils.


Honey Tip: Avoid adding honey directly to oils (it won’t dissolve) or to lye water (it may caramelise and darken your soap). Instead, dilute it with a little warm water and add it gently at light trace.
