Hey Sara, It’s amazing that you can incorporate Flaxseed gel in your soap but have you tried incorporating chia gel and hempseed gel when it comes to your soap? If not do you think you can experiment with them, see what results they’d bring?

[@tellervo.]

I haven't tried them, I'll look into it☺️

Your choice of oils and butters I know would make beautiful soap and the addition of the almond butter makes the soap be the best it can be. Thankyou for sharing your amazing knowledge with all of us out here Tellervo.

[@tellervo.]

Thank you so much you are always so nice!🤗

[@michellewhite6992]

​@@tellervo.Can the almonds be lightly roasted to release more or the oils. I do this with my nuts to make nut butters.

[@brigidlaffey7343]

⁠@@michellewhite6992 - methinks you will impact the efficacy of the oils that way. You are toasting for flavour - that’s a different scenario - albeit heat still reduces the benefits 😊. However when it comes to the TD, green oxide and worse still, ‘fragrance oil/s’ i would recommend to err on the side of caution…

I absolutely love watching your videos. They are so calming and satisfying to watch. No offense to other soap makers, but I love the no talking, soothing music only, videos the best. They are perfect for someone, like myself, with an anxiety disorder. Also, I’ve learned so much about soap making by watching your videos. I’m very interested in trying more natural colorants to color my soaps. It is so interesting to see how some of them change so drastically once the lye solution is added, in particular the Himalayan rhubarb powder. That turns into such a beautiful red color in the end product. I really want to try that for a Valentine’s Day themed soap soon. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes & techniques. I really appreciate them.

Thank you so much🤗I used 'bamboo' from nature's garden. It was pretty easy to make the butter, just took a long time to get it into that liquid consistency😁 Not sure how I'm going to use the rest so I'm open to suggestions!

[@artycrafty9209]

@@tellervo. I was just looking at recipes using nut butter and especially using it as a cake filling or frosting by adding honey or sugar and spreading in-between a sponge cake, if it is a little too thin for speeding add a splash of water which will seize up the butter a little and make it thicker, maybe incorporating into cookies also . I think it could also be used in savoury middle Eastern type dishes adding garlic and herbs to use as a marinade or like satay. Try making a pesto with the almond butter, herbs of your choice such a basil, parsley or sage etc. crush garlic, add olive oil and mix into a pesto, toss onto freshly cooked pasta, voila! Like the sound of the bamboo FO, so nice and fresh.

Lovely! Does the fat of the almond affect the amount of lye you need? Is the base recipe 0%superfat and the almonds are the superfat? Also can you safely add coconut powder to oils in a recipe without it affecting the lye balance? Thankyou, I have your formulators workbook😊🌿

[@SomeUniqueHandle]

It shouldn't affect the lye needed unless you're trying to keep the superfat at a specific percentage. Since she said didn't mention trying to reduce the superfat that the almond butter added, I think she's allowing the almond butter to increase the base superfat of the recipe. (That's pretty standard.) I plugged the recipe into Soap Calc and played with the numbers until it matched hers and I think she's using a 5% superfat base, which is common. As for adding coconut powder to oils, so long as you're okay with increasing the superfat %, don't worry about adjusting the lye balance. I haven't seen a recipe yet (from Tellervo or others) that adjusted the lye for additions like milk powders. And, yep, her workbook is great. I like the fact that it's very straight forward without fluff.
