I love this company! I was told that Brambleberry has top notch supplies so I ordered from them. I had messed up my order and called to get it worked out. They didn’t answer (I didn’t expect them to and I didn’t expect to be called back until after the holiday/weekend), I was called back within the hour and I was helped with the whole process! When I get my supplies and start making some batches I’ll know how their oils and micas and fos work. Thanks Brambleberry 💜

[@LovelessYayaoi]

Thank you for your noble sacrifice to show us what scorched lye milk looks like 😂

[@Maddym365]

Am I ever going to make soap? Probably not. Am I going to watch all the videos? Yes, yes I am. It’s so satisfying!

[@murroncook5648]

I love fact that you reply to the comments on the video. Thanks Anne-Marie!

[@stasia.alexis]

“melk” such a cute little speech bit😂

[@Frozenxrain852]

Okay but real quick. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY PERSON THAT SAYS MELK INSTEAD OF MILK. It made me randomly irrationally happy to hear it being said that way cause my family teases me alllll the time

[@hellskitchenkritterandfrie3372]

What midwest region are you from?

[@crimsontrace339]

I say it, I'm in the UK 😅

[@centrifugedestroyer2579]

In dutch milk is melk, so maybe the regions where this pronunciation is popular have dutch herigate.

[@kk448]

I actually replayed the first time she said it to make sure I heard it correctly! I say “melk,” too, and I get corrected/poked fun of for pronouncing it that way all the time, lol.

[@irrelephantphotons]

@@centrifugedestroyer2579 can confirm, I live in the Netherlands and it's melk here.

[@Delicate_Disaster]

I've never heard anyone other than Anne Marie call it "Melk". Is it because of where she lives? It does she just pronounce it differently just because?

[@WesleyE93]

Not sure if she is from Canada but Canada is currently going through a vowel shift according to linguists so slowly but surely Canadian dialects are shifting vowels. Milk --> Melk and Dress-->drass etc

[@Delicate_Disaster]

@@WesleyE93 huh. That's interesting. I wonder why that's happening.

[@ChrissyPlus]

@@WesleyE93 I'm Canadian and I quit watching this video within 2 mins due to the "MELK MEEEELLLLK MELK" ...oof. If I never hear anyone else say it that way in my life, it'll be too many times

[@randomacronym1]

Actually melk is the Dutch word for milk, so that’s kind of funny😂

[@Kimiko11111]

i'm in nyc and ive met several people who say melk, but then again I'm not sure they're from here.

[@daniquem.2510]

The funny thing is the way you pronounce milk is the way we say it in Dutch. So each time you say milk it sounds like you're speaking Dutch lol. Working with milk is always tough but so worth it. I'll have to try this out, I love the look of it.

[@samzuk6328]

she says melk so many times in this video i love her

[@iwannaapple7190]

I admit I need to get back to ordering my supplies from there. The lasting quality of their fragrance is incredible. I still have mahogany I made 5 years ago and it still smells just as strong as ever! Any way, Don't know if it really matters in the scheme of her recipe but it just might affect the lye and water amounts slightly because I believe it may be a typo. I wanted to keep this recipe so I plugged it into my gadget thingy I made. Her recipe CANNOT be these percentages. They are slightly off probably due to oversight and the fact she is doing such a good job with her company. This is correct: Coconut 25% Palm 25% Sunflower 20.1% Apricot 10.1% Mango 10.1% Shea 4.9% Castor 4.9% Excuse me for the correction. The lye calculator I made is quite handy for these kinds of things so its easy for me to tell.

Would you be able to use charcoal in this instead of the black color?

[@bramble-berry]

We haven't tried it with this recipe! You can always try out using activated charcoal in a small test batch and see how it works for you! If it turns out great, let us see the results by tagging us with #BrambleOn! And if you need to buy some, you can always get our activated charcoal here: www.brambleberry.com/shop-by-product/ingredients/additives-and-lye/botanicals/activated-charcoal/V000413.html

Hi. Anne. I have a question please, is the alcohol you use is the one used for drinking or is the difference?

[@bramble-berry]

No, the alcohol we use with soap is 99% isopropyl alcohol, which is extremely unsafe for consumption.

I want to make exfoliant shower bars usuing bees wax shea and coca butter will i need to use a preservative ? If so wich one do you recomend Will one be needed if they are stored in the fridge ?

[@jeanette9617]

No you don't all those hard oils with whatever soft oils you use will mix with the lye and it will turn into soap. You add any exfoliant like poppy seads, oatmeal etc. Soap doesn't need a preservative.

[@Lovestgroup]

So you had or make two different soap with two different milks?

[@forgodsgloryfarm]

Thank you for this video! I'm going to try making this tomorrow as I have your divider and have been wondering what I can make with it! I'd love any other recommendations for videos I can watch using the divider and if it's not too much trouble, I'd love a link for where I can purchase the beveling tool, I've been wanting to purchase one.

@@dorasilvers5063 Thankyou Dora Silvers, Shall we grind or we can put as it is?

[@dorasilvers5063]

Sree Jith, put the seeds in whole because grinding will cause them to form more of a paste instead of being evenly dispersed throughout the soap like poppyseeds.

[@KittenBowl1]

I like the recipe but I don’t like the beveller nor the beveled edges that were taken off significantly like that.. Edges are taken off way too much and it looks very weird like that and artificial for such natural soap. I don’t like beveled edges, total waste even if they would be used later (I mean I would say no choice if you take them off so much) and I don’t think they look nicer. When I make soap I want to use the full bar not a part of the bar. The bars look way nicer without the extremely wasteful beveled edges. There’re soapers who never bevel. Myself included!! Why? My customers and I love non-beveled edges. And there’re soap makers who use acrylic molds to get sharp edges for more sophisticated looking bars. I really dislike beveled soap. Extremely wasteful.
