I followed this technique to the letter and I must say that the marbling is amazing when the soap is wet. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@luvfay777]

I've made it twice before & it came out fabulously, this is a wonderful tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing your divine skills! :D

[@Salishsea812]

wow you are so generous with your soap recipes and tutorials. Bless you lots!

[@busybodyhandmade1768]

Thank you for making this video. I've watched so many videos on how to make hot process soap and this is the best one. You made it so easy to understand. 👏

[@neshyeah]

This is a really great hot process video. I never thought about adding something at the end to superfat or using a mixer to incorporate color. Thanks for all the new tips!

[@lewisandclark1918]

You are an amazing teacher! Easy to follow guide, and you have a very pleasant voice. Thank you for sharing

[@valerie9111]

How simple, straight forward, basic and down to earth is this video, thank you tenfold. I've looked at so many so called HP soaping for beginners that have been a complete turn off. Please continue keeping it simple, it's refreshing.

[@Thunderwoman71]

The best video I've seen so far. Thanks so much!

[@RedRainInc]

Hey there. I've been greedily absorbing any and all information I can find on the art and science of soaping for the past year, including watching most of your videos. Tonight I've just finished my very first batch of hp soap and it went perfectly! It's unscented and made with oils I had in the house, but seems to lather and cleanse beautifully as I witnessed while washing up my tools and crock pot. Thanks for being the wellspring of information that you are and keep the videos coming.

[@mysewcalledlife6531]

This is a great, simple, to-the-point hot process tutorial. I was intimidated by the other videos I saw, but this one encouraged me to try it today. Thank you!

[@brendarowe984]

so agreed, I am excited to try this.

[@theglowingbrownie5124]

This is the only video that explains thoroughly the hot method and I’ve watched tooooons of videos!! Thank you!!

[@vw714]

I would like to thank you for your classes! I have watched (and study) them for two months before I was able to make my first real (not melt & pour) soap. I was much more interested in HP then CP. So I first started with HP and I have now made 5 patches of HP and 4 patches of CP. My first batch was a HP Lavender & Honey and instead of adding Coco or Shea I had Cupuacu Butter. Turned out Awesome!!!! Thanks to your classes. My first CP patch was your Avocuco Soap. It will not be ready until Sept. 26. This got me going in a whirlwind... I made a CP Carrot & Cucumber Soap (keeping true to the Avocuco method), a CP Coconut Milk Soap; very white may I add. I even made a CP Echinacea Tea & Aloe soap. I guess what I'm trying to say is; Thanks for setting a fire under my butt. Hugs & Kisses

[@soaping101]

I am so very excited for you!

What is advantage of hot process more than cold process

[@mohammediqubalmp4447]

What is the advantage hot process more than cold process

[@TracyD2]

Mohammed Iqubal MP HP is ready to use immediately. It doesn’t need to cure but it still is better to let HP sit for a few weeks to harden. Also because all of the fats are saponified while cooking your super fats will retain their properties. In CP the bar is continuing to saponifying the fats while they are sitting or curing and you just don’t know what oils if any are left from the super-fat. That’s what I think anyway. I hope I explained that. There might be a video here that explains the differences better than I.

[@teresahuber5039]

You added supper fat of 1/2 oz of cocoa butter. what other super fat cold you of added? I'm trying to understand superfast.

[@kathrynalcock6839]

Thankyou very much for your videos. They have helped me with my hobbie of soap making. You are very kind to share your knowledge and experience. Blessings to you x

[@onceuponafavor2786]

Thanks! I've been wanting to try hot process for a while. Now I think I'm ready after watching you!

[@soaping101]

Fantastic, give it a go!

[@notimeforlove9535]

1000 thank you indeed.♥♥♥♥ I followed your instructions in this video , but I used a regular stainless steel pot . It turned out amazing .

[@1994abbygirl]

Best hot process soap video I have seen! I saved it to refer to later!

[@OpenMinded1231]

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much I'm sharing your video!

[@comfycomfy6469]

thank you so much for your informative pods, it is difficult to get the ingredients and molds needed in the UK, really enjoying my new hobby with your help

[@catrionaaldridge654]

Thank you so much .I'm going from cold process to hot due to only having 4 weeks to a fair.your tutorials are so good 👏🧚‍♀️

[@JM-qi9wv]

I love all your videos. Clear and easy to follow. The background music is great, too. Yours are the best soap making videos on YT.

[@pinguij7786]

Thanks so much for your teaching!!! You are incredible master!!! Blessings from Spain ❤

[@Paulina89]

I hot process exclusively and it's always interesting to see how differently people do it. Mine never separates and goes straight to vaseline stage, unless I use milks. I also never stir till the end and turn off the crock pot once a third of the soap batter gelled and let the rest of the heat cook it. My soap is very fluid with this technique and I can pretty much pour it into the mold.

[@soaping101]

We are lucky to have so many options when it comes to creating hot process soap.

[@Species710]

Wow I'd love to see a video of that. My original recipe, when I was first learning, I didn't have to stir it down. I let it cook for about 1.25 hours and it was at the Vaseline stage and I had to plop it into the mold. Once I started adding additional oils, not sure which one cased it, I then had to stir it down every 10 minutes or it would 'boil' over.

[@Paulina89]

Search for "how to make hot process soap" and "A faster way to make hp soap" by Elizabeth Lemp here on KZbin. She does it very similar to the way I do it. I never have issues with it boiling over and I don't have to constantly watch it. My soap turns out very moist also.

[@Species710]

Wow thank you! May you receive 3 fold the kindness you have shown me.

[@Paulina89]

Species710 you're welcome :) I hope the videos are helpful to you. If you have any questions feel free to message me, I'll be happy to help.

Thanks you SO much, Cathy! I sure wish I had watched this video at 3:00 a.m. this morning! I used a different recipe than I usually use and I couldn't decide if it was done! I'm going to back to the tried and true Bastille recipe!

[@soaping101]

Next time you will get it perfect :)

[@futureprimitivesoap]

I thoroughly enjoyed this! Thanks so much for yet another wonderful & relaxing video x

[@soaping101]

And I so enjoy your videos Tiggy :)

[@futureprimitivesoap]

thank you! x

[@cindeesmith5139]

Thank you Cathy, I use a mixer too. It makes it smoother too. I hp a lot of my soap. Did do full water? I do. I like the butters at the end as well. Someone asked about fruit. I freeze it and add to lye is that ok. I do my pumpkin and it works great. I never thought about after lye. Thank you I will try the coloring I like that! Yeah I am so happy you did this. Beautiful bar!

[@soaping101]

I used full water too.

[@kthrall]

Thank you so much for your detailed instructions. These videos are invaluable to beginners. This video helped me make my first successful hp batch with a rich lovely lather. I did modify it jist a tad by adding after saponification 2 ice cubes of goat's milk and .6 oz cocoa butter and found that it is alittle soft after 24 hrs. Is that normal or can I expect it to harden more as it has more dry time?

[@michelleulmer7298]

Another great video. Thank you Cathy. Can't wait to see Curds & Whey.

[@soaping101]

[@MsSyynn]

I tried this for my first hot process soap. I didn’t add the additional super fat and I added baby powder fragrance oil. The results were fantastic. Thank you for sharing

[@dandyd14441]

San Taylor with the same ingredients here? When you did add bay leaves? Thank you

[@MsSyynn]

[@Jellybean-fm6qk]

Thank you SO much for this video tutorial, very helpful! The only question I have, is how much fragrance is used in this recipe? I'm not sure if I missed that part in the video or if it just wasn't mentioned. Thank you in advance

[@staceycruz-hamm9481]

Thank you for your videos,I started about 2 yesterday ago with your cp soap videos which helped me so much,,but I was just feeling I didn't want to wait the 4 weeks to cure so I have been making less soap,,maybe the way I do things but I was using so many different bowels spoons it got tiring getting everything out,I don't have a specific area in my home to just do soap,,so I have been contemplating HP soap,,I'm doing my first one as I write this watching your video,and have to say less bowels and less works for me even though It seems the same process I'm liking this HP better,,,Thank you again fir making my life so much easier,,

[@matthewd.3276]

that was a very good tutorial. thank you. if i were to put in a super fat like shea butter during phase 3, should i account for that when figuring lye? or is it just fine to add?

[@MrLidiaJC]

Thankyou for your videos !!!!

[@lallysoap4590]

First of all, congratulations on your videos! I always follow you with pleasure! I would like to know if I use the crok pot for soap, do you ruin? Can I use it to cook food? Thank you so much and keep it up !!!!

[@ellenblack5376]

Thank you !

[@mdaouk11]

Thank you, so much for putting this in a video. I read so many articles and tips and by the time my supplies arrives, I was hesitant and lost. Seeing the process from A to Z is so helpful. Unfortunately I didn't have a big mold, instead I have the 6 cavity style, my soap look funny on the top and the corner because the soap is sticky. Are there any tips on using the silicone cavities and make soap bar perfect shape or they are not recommended? Thank you again

[@Touchtheincredible]

Hello, How much of the essential(fragrance) oil should i use I like lavender and vanilla thank you and great video!!

[@patsyoconner9506]

what heat setting do you cook the soap please

[@123LilDebbie]

I really enjoy your videos. I want to make a super easy soap with just 2lbs. Lard and water. I have a crockpot but its a 2 1/2 quart. would that be okay to use for 2lbs. of Lard and water and lye? Thanks in advance, hope to hear from you soon.

[@michael7324]

This is a great tutorial. I have never made soap but am planning to do so very soon. My question is, could you have melted the the superfat before adding it to the batch?

[@nermeenelhofy8940]

Thank u. Can i make hot process on the stove and what is the exact temperature used for hot process?

[@CrystalChristianStore]

Please make more videos! I love your channel and how you explain. Can i use the same ounces but different oils? Please answer me😊

[@tulsikumar_24]

Thanks for the wonderful video. Could you please tell me how to make Clear melt and pour soap base bar.

[@duallove6909]

[@simoneedwards8015]

Hi there!!! Can I rebatch a soap that has been rebatched??? Thank you!!! Love your tutorials!!! Keep it up please!!!! X

[@JazzyMamaInAK]

I have several crockpots and slow cookers in assorted sizes, what size are you using in the video? Thanks

[@lynb5157]

Thank you for all these videos! I'm looking to start my hobby and utilizing soaps I only make. Question, is just preference in regards to why someone would us HP vs CP? Thank you again! You're amazing!

[@eco-beehive]

Thanks for this

[@corenagaroutte2315]

Is there any use in using exspensive benificial oils in hot process? Does the heat kill all/most nutritional benifits?

[@tiggergurl84]

are you using tare weight or just weighing it regular? I have a problem on my end and every time I weigh something, I guess I'm not clear as to how to really weigh. I use oz instead of grams.also I use a 10 in Silicone mold but it seems as though my soap is too soft and will not unmold. I thought it had something to do with olive oil and the other oils and the type of mold. I'm frustrated and I really need help on this issue. also which is unit of measurement is best to use for a beginner? and also do the oils have to be exact?

[@tiffaniwin]

I'm a bit confused, if I follow the recipe on your site do I have to add the cocoa butter to the mixture? Since I thought it had a super-fat? This is my first time at hot process, so I'm not sure if I need the cocoa butter to the bastile soap recipe. Thanks so much!

[@tusharkathuria9]

Is there anyway to make final soap after HP to be fluid so that it can be poured easily in moulds and top layer levels automatically after pouring?

[@thangsme]

i have watched u video i want to know wheather this is the method is used for prepration of soft soap which is used in making phenol . or some other method.

[@MUSICLOVERGIGGLES]

I'm just curious when doing the hot process soap can you add sodium lactate to the recipe? I hear the sodium lactate makes the hot process soap work better for pouring into the silicone molds instead of the log (wood) mold? And at what step if you do add? Thank you for all your help. And will you be doing a video on how to use sodium lactate in hot process too?

[@sakia4628]

I went for shopping all the available crockpots have... law, high, and warm set there is no medium heat available : ( should I put law heat? or warm?

[@dominicmejia849]

i love your vids

[@teeleejames5300]

I love all you videos! I am learning so much! I do have one question though on this particular video. Can I substitute a different oil for the castor oil? such as almond oil or 1st press cold press olive oil?

[@yaznasir]

If you want to sub a oil you have to run it through the soap calc.

[@miningmonkey760]

nice video, i m attempting to hot process today, i have always used CP for years, so itoday im braving the seaven seas of HP soap making. I have 1 question though, just about every video i have seen on HP on youtube, the hobbyist throws in a chunk of superfat after the saponification is completed. SO my Big question is how much superfat do i add at the end? all of the lye and fragrance cals i use do have superfatting levels usually 5% - I USUALLY GO 6% BUT NOTHING IS MENTIONED about putting a chunk in later. is this a tip ? please explain, thanks!!

[@NewbieSoaper]

Hi. Thx for the video. Where do u get the silicone cups?
