Thanks for the helpful video! I started soap making backwards, going straight for Cold Process because I thought that was how "real" soap "should" be made. But I now realize that's a silly mindset to have. Cold Process is great, but there's nothing wrong with Melt and Pour! I'm excited to have an easier and safer method under my belt for times when I want to make pretty soap but I really don't feel like going the extra mile.

One of my best friends and I bought a melt and pour kit from Michael's, and we were working in such small quantities to try and do layers that we ended up overheating the soap and it hardened SO FAST! We had no idea what we did wrong until I watched this just now!! SO helpful!!! We'll be sure to melt more soap down at a time so it doesn't overheat so quickly next time! xD The quality of the soap probably also makes a huge difference, since Michael's soap isn't on par with Bramble Berry!! It would be SO COOL if you guys one day worked with Michael's to get some QUALITY melt and pour on their shelves!!!

Hello! I have a question. I’ve been watching a LOT of soap making tutorials recently and have been learning about the science and steps to cold processed soaps. While it seems fun and rewarding, I can’t help but wonder why someone would go through all that work, money, and the safety risks when they could just use melt & pour bases. What are the benefits to cold processed versus M&P? (Anyone can answer). Thank you for making this video!

If you make your own soap, you can customize the quality of the soap, more or less lather, more moisturizing depending on what oil or combination of oils you use to make the soap. Of course you can follow recipes for this as well, but advanced soap makers will use their own favorite formulas. The three standard are palm oil (some people don't really like this option for environmental reasons) olive oil, and coconut oil, but almond oil and several others are also options. It is also more cost effective when you buy bulk amounts of lye and oils instead of buying something pre-made (even if the video says it cost effective to buy melt and pour) And even more cost effective when you buy oil from a soap making company where the oils are NOT food grade. Why pay more for something you are obviously not going to eat? haha! The last point is that there is something fun being the science of creating your own soap, it feels almost more fulfilling to make it from scratch and to be able to handle your materials safely. Of course it takes more work I hope this helped

Thé advantage for melt and pour, in my opinion, is that it’s easier to make smaller batches, and it hardens faster. If you’re wanting to experiment with different fragrances, or aesthetics like color, layers, add-ins, etc. you can see the results much more quickly and decide if it’s what you want, or if it came out different than you expected. Soap from scratch is not super hard, but it does take more time, supplies and safety equipment, and you need to cure your soap for several weeks.

Found out about your company through Royalty Soaps, and found you have YT tutorials. All these soap videos is making me want to get into it too as a hobby, make gifts for my family type of thing. I would LOVE to try cold process but it seems like just about anything that you can do with cold process you can also do with this melt and pour, considering glycerin is the only difference between the two, really. And I suppose with cold, you can have different mixes of different oils/butters. So here's my questions. Which is CHEAPER to make, sans equipment?? Say I wanna do cupcake soaps exclusively. How much would it cost to do a batch (12) as cold process vs a melt and pour??? Would I have to get a mold with the icing portion built into it for the melt and pour, or is there a way to make "icing" the way you can make with cold process?? How much melt and pour would it take, approximately? Also, I have Anosmia. Will that affect my ability to use scents? I'm thinking I'll probably need a test sniffer (hello kids, lol). Does Brambleberry offer scent samplers so we know what the scents smell like before we buy them for use??

I just started making melt and pour soap. Never had an issue, but just recently my last batch or two of soap came out very rubbery?!, Almost bendable. I cut the pieces of soap evently before melting in microwave. Did I overheat it in microwave or reheat too many times? Heated in 20 to 25 secs intervals. I used 16 oz melt and pour buttermilk base, 1 tsp essential oils, mica powder, and 1 1/2 tsp ground oatmeal. Could the melt and pour base have gone bad? Any help is appreciated.

Hi Anne-Marie, I love your video. I am so glad I found your video as I am about to add soaps to my candles and diffuser range. I want to make a large batch using double boiler method. Can I use my large metal jug to melt or should I use a heat resistant plastic jug? Also I have plastic soap moulds which are a version of wax melts moulds. Can I use those plastic moulds or do I have to get silicon ones? Thank you so very much. 🙏

Thank you for this video. If the MP soap is wrapped after cooled then given to someone & they unwrap it will the sweating still occur? Does it also happen on the white versions? I guess it’s best to fan it for it to not happen period? I guess if you sell either type you should clarify on your sticker it’s glycerine soap? I wish your shipping charges to Canada were better, I’d love to order from you as I’m just getting started. Love your videos ❤️ thank you!

There's this natural glycerin soap I got at a store next to my place a number of years ago. I don't know if they fanned before packaging and distributing, but after opening it still sweat. So I at least know that for whichever they did that it will sweat after. Also, the last bar I had I hardly got to use. I had it in a travel soap dish I use and left in the shower, since it was fine with all the other soaps I used, mostly Irish Spring since that's what I kept having available as cheapest over the years, or my mother had stocked up in the bathroom and not using, etc. Went up to my grandparents for a couple weeks, came back, and almost the whole bar was a puddle in the soap dish. So it seems if using glycerine, really watch the humidity and store in a completely sealed container away from moisture if not using for long periods after opening.

Hi, i have a question about my soap. I tried using your shea butter mix, but whenever i use it, it feels rubbery and flexible. Unlike normal natural soaps i buy. Why is this?

Can chameleon powder or flakes be used in melt and pour soap? I think the colors would be beautiful, but not sure if they would work...

I am getting conflicting information about dried flowers added to melt and pour. They say you shouldn’t add dried flowers to the melt and pour because it will mold. Any help with this would be great, thank you.

They won't get moldy due to the higher pH of the soap base but they will turn brown.

Great Tutorial. Why does my M&P soap have a tacky feeling after each use? Am I adding to much oil? It lathers pretty well but after drying my hands it feels tacky, like it doesn’t have a smooth feeling.

Adding extra oil can definitely cause your melt & pour to become sticky if you add too much. We recommend using a maximum of 1 tablespoon of extra oil per pound of soap.

We usually suggest using your soaps within one year, but always remember that your shelf life is going to be based on whatever ingredient has the shortest shelf life.

How do you stop it from hardening so fast. Mine literally hardens right after pouring in mold so no chance of any design or anything

Very important to mention to add the essential oil(I don't know about fragrance...two different things) when the soap is at a temperature that will not have a negative effect on the 'fragrance'. Too hot will ruin the soap.

Melt and pour soap should not get to a temperature hot enough to negatively impact your final scent, but generally we recommend adding it around 130 degrees.

Thank you so much for this video. I have heard that if we use botanicals in a melt & pour soup then the soap needs to be used up within 30 days because the botanicals start rotting. Is that true? If that is true, is there a way to prevent that? Thanks!
@bramble-berry
@bramble-berry 20 күн бұрын
They will turn brown but they will not rot since the pH of the soap does not allow for bacteria or mold growth. We do recommend using them quickly when they are prettiest!
