How to Make Large Batch Cinnamon & Oatmeal Soap | Cold Process Soap Tutorial 🍁

[@imonatural]

Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge. It's a rare quality these days.

[@ZestyAqua]

I've noticed people in the artisan handcrafted soap making community are pretty supportive. They certainly come clean- It should not be rare. The knowledge helps us all in the end.♡ Sad it is rare to find transparent businesses. I want to see how each oil is harvested, made, the area, the workers to how the lye is made, fragrances to the mica all of the supplies. A lot goes into one bar of soap employing countless people in the supply chain. Is the olive oil fair trade? All of it I want to know down to the field each raw material is grown in. All of us should know. A healthier more information, non corrupt transparent marketplace. Love her values and I absolutely agree with them. She may put l♡ve into hers- mine have tears and some zestiness- not too much love or too lit, just right 😉

[@pattimessenger6214]

You’re right! Joanna had been wonderfully supportive of other shapers and wannabe shapers!

[@JenSpice]

What a nice idea! I love watching you soap Joanna! I have one wholesale company locally keeping me busy this holiday season. I'm making 35 lb batches with those amazing dough proofing slabs you recommended. For Fall I'm making Honey Pumpkin Gingerbread Soap, Iced Honey Coffee Soap, Naked Honey Bars, Naked Honey Oat and Almond Bars, Salish Sea Solseife and Naked Lavender Soap all at the Urban Bee Farm here on Vancouver Island. It's incredible to be in demand so much that I deliver 100+ bars each week to keep everything in stock. As a bonus I'm getting really good at re batching with the scraps and leftovers and can keep creating for my Etsy shop those small batch custom orders and the soap inspired by my soapy imagination. :)Jen

[@iluminameluna]

I was intrigued as to how you'd make your cinnamon oatmeal soap. I use actual cinny powder, but less than 0.5% of my recipe. I'm living in a country where I can't get ANY soap making supplies except oils, and those are limited too. My milk, cinnamon and cocoa soap still smells amazing, even after 5 months of cure, though I didn't use a single fragrance or essential oil. Thanks for sharing your process!

[@claudinebotha2615]

Your set up is exactly what I’m looking for for big batches. Just found you so I’ll make sure I get all your videos and go through them. Thank you for this content. It’s been invaluable.

[@TheSoapGal]

So glad you found us!!

[@rachelpuckeridge6938]

Was it just me that really liked the splashing sounds?! “Scrapey, Scrapey, Thank you Katie”! Loving that!

[@jacquiemarshall5275]

I have been watching and rewatching your master batching videos. I master batched my soft oils. I can’t believe how much time that saved me. Baby steps. Love your videos. Keep up the great work and inspiration

[@TheSoapGal]

Thank you, I am so happy that helped you! Did you get soap maker 3 yet!! That was my game changer! I’m here to help in any way.

[@jacquiemarshall5275]

The Soap Gal yes I have soapmaker 3. Thank you for your support. Much appreciated

[@kristincooke8924]

I love your videos, you are so cheerful and upbeat :) And I'm a bit blown away by the sheer quantities of soap you make, wow!

[@ebonypalmer8247]

You have a beautiful personality thank you for your videos. They are very insightful for me as a beginner. Keep up the excellent work.

[@TheSoapGal]

Thank you so much! You're so sweet and glad to hear it has been helpful to you!

[@mellasone]

Wonderfully well organised way of making large amounts of soap, I stress out just handling a couple of kilos of soap, I make a mess all around me and I am always fearful of handling lye even after so many years of making soap, its a pleasure to watch you making soap you make the process look very easy. thanks for the upload

[@evaedmonds3498]

So nice to watch you work! Sound strange maybe, but I learn a lot from seeing other soapers just do what they do, in their own way. Your experience really shows. thank you as always for sharing and inviting us into your workspace. That soap sounds lovely, I wanted so much to stiff it too! : )

[@TheTessabw]

I’ve made oatmeal/honey, coloured with turmeric 100% tallow. Can’t wait to try it out xx

[@krystalleighton]

I love the nod to Katie. :)

[@TheSoapGal]

She is the sweetest young lady, and she has put her slogan in very soap makers head!! We all need the shirt!!

[@mountainlifesoapsllcgoatmi5535]

I made a couple of pumpkin scented soaps, and a couple of different Apple scented soaps But lately I have been making lots and lots of Lotions. I also make Goat milk soap and Goat milk lotion. I love watching your videos. You gave me the idea to make a five gallon bucket of Lotion base insted of making each one separate. It's going to save so much time. With the base made all I have to do ismeasure out the amount, add fragrance and pipe into bottles. SO MUCH EASIER. Thank you

[@jaisparks6091]

I have been reviewing all your videos to understand how water is added to the batch after masterbatching lye. I finally found the answer to that in this video. Thank you so much for that, you just saved me a whole bunch of time. You are such an inspiration

[@1406aide]

OMG!! so nice to watch your videos, I am so happy.... You are my hero!! hope one day I could be like you, I am new at soapmaking from Mexico... Thank you so much to share with us, you are so kind.

[@007NMPenfold]

Thank you so much for sharing! I love learning from you as I watch you go through the process. I am glad to see the way you deal with the reality of an over the amount of a measurement of an oil. I have done the same and it is wonderful to have confirmation of what to do. re-calculate! lol. I am right now trying to figure out the right scents with EO's Rosemary, Peppermint, and Litsea Cubeba. so much to learn and understand, and again thank you so much!!

[@amh49002]

I love watching your videos so much. You have such a kind spirit and am so grateful you are so willing to share to help the rest of us. And yes, I would absolutely love to buy your soaps.

[@penniewhite36]

Me too! I would love to try them! I love your videos, you inspire me so much!! ♥️

[@marlenelopez]

You're such a delight to watch and you've given me lots of ideas for my little soap business

[@maryturnerbeauty3965]

Cranberry and Pumpkin Spice and Sugar cookie scents are popular this fall

[@SoapyOaksFarm]

a lot of fun to watch you make such a huge batch, thanks for sharing, have a fantastic day. Patrick

[@cheekysaver]

Yet again you are my soaping superhero!!! I LOVE watching you make the big batches. Yesterday I made Maple Sugar, Pumpkin, Rose, Jasmine, Lavender, Sweet pea and Bubblegum. Where do I sell? Well mom has a table at a craft fair at the end of the month... she makes cards and jewelry... it will be our first craft fair. Let's just say I don't think we will run out of stuff to sell. It is a smaller craft fair but that is just fine by us! I am going in to test the market and my marketing ideas. I have around 800 silver labels to go on the shrink wrap... they have to go through my laser printer... my back label will be just dollar store address labels for the ingredient lists. I also have a massive roll of vinyl for using on cars to make stickers... it is clear... so I am going to print off labels to put on plain white bags so my end product looks finished. Your vids really helped explain how important a finished looking product is. I can't tell you what I will go under yet... I have to purchase a URL and start a fb group for it first. I don't mind purchasing the URL but no further funds will be invested until I have proof of concept. BTW I LOVVVE soaping!!! Thank you for having a great impact on the soaping community!!!

[@lilianaortiz9109]

Love watching you, you are so sweet!! It is great watching other soapers, you inspire me so much!

[@GlssBss1]

What a lovely thing. You showed a mistake being made and how to fix it. My respect for you is growing.I'd like to see how the huge block gets cut into loaves.

[@akosy6975]

Thanks FOR sharing

[@heatherj3385]

Wow! I can't imagine making that volume of soap, you are pretty amazing. I make under 200 bars per month.

[@TheSoapGal]

Heather you can totally do it and I'm excited to share my process so that you can do it too! Stay tuned for more videos about how to scale.

[@renatonovas6185]

Hello! I am a manufacturer of handmade soap and for own use. I do not sell my soaps. I was impressed with all of their equipment and much more impressed by their friendliness. Thank you for sharing the videos of your work. I was happy to find your channel. Already registered.

Thank you so so much

[@TheSoapGal]

You're welcome!

[@sheshug183]

I'm going to my first craft fair on the 13th. I'm a little nervous but excited. I didn't do any "fall" soap but I have started on my Christmas soaps for a fair next month.

[@TheSoapGal]

Your going to do amazing, focus on your display risers helps a lot, and brand colors, clean organized and a smile goes a long way!!! You Got This !!

[@finnegansfinds7804]

I hope to one day be able to make such big batches! Looks like a lot of fun. :)

[@ZestyAqua]

Did you create the website? On wix or Square space? Of course people want to purchase an online store is a must. Really appreciate the knowledge you are offering. Thank you. Patreon? People definitely would buy from you direct, I would. Love Katie Carson of Royalty Soaps. The soaping community overall is a supportive bunch. All my l♡ve you you and yours.

[@OnlyInUrMindCreativeSoaps]

Thanks for sharing, I love your videos and I bet your soaps are amazing!

[@kellytague2173]

Hi I ran across your video and I had to subscribe. You are awesome. Thanking you for sharing.

[@patriciamartin-aragonperez8977]

Yes, you are back! I missed you on Sunday

[@TheSoapGal]

Agree, these last week was crazy! I will have it up this Sunday!

[@TheSoapGal]

Missed you too!

[@barbaradesousa9122]

Wow! The cinnamon cloves would be great to purchase!

[@TheSoapGal]

[@IMDEDE2]

WOW. What a production! You are AMAZING!!...

[@tayooshifodunrin8745]

Thanks for sharing.

[@sharondonelow5364]

I really enjoy your videos and all the info you give us! I was thinking...the companies that make the equipment you tell us about should give you some sort of compensation because there will probably be many people that view your videos who will want that same equipment. It's only right! Since you already have the equipment, they could do something like extend your warranties, give you a free upgrade, a percentage of the sales or free product (a tanker truck of oil ;-) ) or whatever. But they will be making sales because of your wonderful videos. Just food for thought. :)

[@dr.w.octaviamalveauxdent1315]

Joanna I just ran across your videos. You are an amazing teacher it’s no query why you are so blessed. I am new to soaping and can not figure out how you get correct measurements for water, since you measure out from your master batch lye solution plus add additional water to your oils. Do you have a video on master batching oils and or lye solution? Thank you for sharing!

[@saved2save7]

I'm speechless. ..only in America. .. I want to ask sooo many questions. .I will have to come back I cant believe my eyes 😍

[@sabrinanoman1112]

I've just found your channel and it is amazing! Can you do a tutorial on how to clean the larger equipment? Like barrels and also that tilting pot!

[@patriciahamel5674]

Please do create a website! I can't make soap any,more due to health issues, and your soaps look really lovely. I would definitely be interested in purchasing some.

[@hilaallnaturalsoaps9628]

I have just found your channel. very interesting - subscribed !

[@canfieldhandcraftedsoaps]

Made Pumpkin Cheesecake, Caramel Apple and some woodsy fragrances based on Anne of Green Gables. Loved watching you make this huuuuuge batch! 💜💜

[@sueannchism1128]

Love your videos!

[@griseldaesparza2825]

great video and awesome information that you share! One question, if the fragrance it says is not safe to use in soap how do you go about using it without putting too much to irritate skin? I'll love to make a cinnamon soap

[@kaiOutLoud]

Thank you for this video! Very informative 😊

[@nancykelly9712]

Love your videos and watching the master batching!! That didn't seem like enough ground oatmeal to me though, not enough even to say it's in there!

[@bandlplainsimplehmsoaps9951]

Thanks, we’re in Gilbert.

[@bandlplainsimplehmsoaps9951]

Country Christmas, Balsam Cedar & Christmas Cabin & Peppermint Christmas Tree Cupcakes. Cold process soap & Melt & Pour Goat Milk. Already did French Vanilla Pumpkin Spice Coffee.

I can smell that! Amazing combo

[@magdalenag.972]

Omg I was so confused ehy you put Walter directly into the oils. But as soon as you explained the 1:1 ratio of your lye solution I yelled out "what a smart lady!" haha

[@laken1804]

Yes Joanna, if they tell that there is soap without lye they are lying or in this case "lyeing".😉

[@pearsrtasty3326]

hi there! I just stumbled upon your videos. I have yet to find or search for the video of why you make so much. since you say in this video you do not sell your soap...what do you do with it? 35lbs of soap is a lot. do you just make it for your family to use? thanks! and I also wanted to say how I love how you make your soap! so rustic! not into "embeds" and such. very awesome work!

[@TheSoapGal]

Hello, I do sell it. But I sell to other businesses to sell. I love making soap that people can afford as daily use. That’s my niche, and love it!

[@monarchsoapco.4444]

Thank you for the great video! I’m a soap maker also and I have a question...I’m a little confused. Why did you add both plain water and lye solution to your oils? Doesn’t the lye solution have the water in it already?

[@TheSoapGal]

Yes but not enough, I use a 50/50 Solution per made so I can make anything on the spot!

[@monarchsoapco.4444]

That makes sense. Thank you!

[@dianedecker9493]

Hi Joanna, I love your videos! Very informative and helpful. I was wondering if you have UPC Codes for each of your wholesale soaps. If so, that might be a good topic for A Sunday.

[@TheSoapGal]

Great reason to make another one !

[@cathywright4133]

I love your videos

[@carolpeters7155]

I just found your channel today and I’m lov’n watching you; especially since you give glory to God ❤ I’ve been making soap since 2019 and started a small business Aug 2022. My question: watching your videos you add water separately from your 50/50 lye solution. I’ve only used dry sodium hydroxide that I mix with water (usually at a 35% ratio) using soapcalc program. So I’m confused by what you mean that you use a 50/50 ratio of water to sodium hydroxide?

[@TheSoapGal]

Hi Carol! I just posted how to make 50/50 lye solution - you can find it here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYDIlWtpfNJrbpI let me know if you still have any questions after that :)

[@oumoubathily8184]

I would love to have more details on the measurements of your soap bars , i know they are 4 oz but whats the size ?

[@miam7965]

Do you make pearl powder soap?

I do not at this time, but I'm always interested in experimenting with new things!

Is this room temperature that u mix the lye and oils

[@MUSICLOVERGIGGLES]

Well my only fall soap is for my husband and he’s best friend. It’s called Hunting Soap fragrance oil is from The Sage Called “Earth FO”. This year I am attempting to do a camouflage soap for them. Still haven’t made it yet. Side note : how do you handle soap making and life? My mom is very sick and I found out last night my Grandma isn’t doing good either so I let everyone know that I put my business on hold to deal with family. Some of my people were okay with this but I did have some who were really upset with me. I can’t seem to be creative right now.

[@UtahGmaw99]

I am sorry about your mom and grandma. I hope they get better soon.Family first If others don't get it to bad for them. Just do your best and remember to stop sawing to sharpen YOUR saw once and awhile as my grandma use to say..Hugs
