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.

[@AskAuntieFay]

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

[@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.

[@theglowingbrownie5124]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@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. 👏

[@lewisandclark1918]

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

[@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!

[@Salishsea812]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@Thunderwoman71]

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

[@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]

[@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 .

[@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 👏🧚‍♀️

[@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?

[@rine36]

Thank you for doing these tutorials. You explain things very well. I appreciate it

[@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,,

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!

Hi Teach! I have learned so much from watching your videos. They are simple, straight-forward and chock full of information. I was ticked to find this as I am making my first HP batch of soap today!

[@soaping101]

Ticked or tickled? Happy I hope :)

[@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.

[@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

Hello Ma'am. I'm newbie. I'm learning more and more about soaps from your videos. Your videos are very informative. I would like to ask you one question. What is difference between Hot process soaps and cold process soaps? Regarding quality and demand. Many Thanks for the videos. Regards.

[@williambowman7407]

Excellent -- Simple, Clear -- 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!

Awesome gonna give this a try! Is that a 2 or 3 pound mold...

[@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?

[@glennda2]

Very good tutorial! You are blessed with a talent. Thank you for the video

[@kasiashanti427]

I do LOVE your tutorials! I really do. I have learnt so much from them :) Thank you

[@barbara6509]

I love this video!! Thank you! Just one quick question. My crock pot only has high, low and keep warm. Which should I use?

[@LivingOnADime]

+Barbara Ayscue I've used high and low. High I watch it closer so it doesn't burn but do it if I'm in a hurry and low you can leave it for 10-15 mins. at a time and not worry about it burning.

[@catarinatang980]

Hi? Is this all possible to use a normal stove or bain marie when making hot process soap? I don't have a crock pot.

[@littlemistexas07]

Catarina Tang I would go ahead and buy a crock pot. You don't even need a fancy one. They have several for $20 or less at stores like Walmart.

[@littlemistexas07]

Catarina Tang although I did find a post on Pinterest where a woman used a double boiler for hers once. If you think you can keep the heat pretty even, it shouldn't be that big of a problem.

[@nastassjabourbour1790]

@@catarinatang980 I got mine for 5 dollars at a thrift store!

[@Thunderwoman71]

It worked great! Thank you so much.

[@dgsoaps4013]

Hi Cath, You are brilliant! I have enjoyed every video you have made thus far. Thank you so much. Can I ask, how long have you been making soap? Also, what is your background or education in? Keep up the great videos. I enjoy watching them!

[@aliciabrudna434]

First, I love your videos. I've learned and used a lot of your information so far, which leads me to this. I have tried twice to make hot process in the crock pot. My first batch turned into a glumpy mess and then hit the "Vaseline" stage, I molded it and it came out really nice, but my second batch I used about half of the amount of ingredients as I was just trying a new scent. This never went through any of the stages, it was like oatmeal the whole time. I again just molded it to see what would happen, and it seems to have come out fine, but I worry because it isn't doing any of the things in your video. Any thoughts? I'd really appreciate your feedback, I don't want to waste an ounce of this stuff! Thanks you so much!

[@mithramusic5909]

Hot process doesn't always follow all of the phases of soapmaking. Sometimes a phase goes by so quickly that you don't even see it unless you're staring at the pot the entire time, and sometimes you skip phases entirely, and sometimes you're stuck on one phase almost the whole time. The important thing is recognizing the ending phase, and making sure your soap passes the tongue-zap test.

[@kimberlymcdonald2922]

I went to a bee symposium a few weeks ago and they had a lady showing how to how to make hot process soap in the microwave. My aunt is having a wedding shower and i thought soap would be a great party favor. So i tried to make some but i think i over heated it we tried twice more but it still messed up. This looks a lot more promising and i wanted to put some of my beeswax and honey from our bees into it.

[@shelbydavidson8113]

it so easy

[@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

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?
