Thanks! Thats how I do my goat milk experiment's I mean soaps too. I just wish it didn’t stink so much! Fortunately it’s a quick whiff of yuck!

Thank you so much! You don’t know how much I appreciate your help and willingness to guide us newbies! I have a bunch of frozen goat milk and an up and coming dairy goat, so unless I get gifted an awesome freeze dryer I will be freezing a lot of milk! Knock on wood, I’ve had great luck so far...

Maybe one more tweak! @KiwiMoose My Walmart has Aloe Vera juice, will any of the healing properties carry thru into the soap, or is it more to make bubbles? This is the first I’ve heard of using it, how much of the goat milk should I replace? Does it need to be frozen so it doesn’t scorch with...

One last check before I make this tomorrow, I made a few adjustments/additions based on all of your wonderful advice, super fat still at 2% because of the lard. Will the sugar and sodium lactate accelerate the batter? It says oatmeal in the calc, but I’m going to add the colloidal oats dry at...

Will that high of a super fat with lard cause a soap scum issue?

Thanks!

You read my mind! I was just about to ask that I just remembered I have cucumber seed oil, but it’s not in soap calc, not sure how I could add that in i was contemplating adding that in, thanks for the amount!

@AliOop I was thinking about adding some sugar, how much should I add? I’m making a small batch, 10 oz of oils

I’m veggie free right now except for broccoli, squash and cauliflower, something tells me they aren’t good in soap lol Thank you!!!!

I don’t have any, any other suggestions?

My daughter is a nurse, and all the hand washing is making her skin very angry. She asked if I could make her a mild goat milk soap to try and see if this will help any. Being so new I wanted to get some options please. I do have a lot of different oils on hand if you think a different recipe...

Thanks!

The way I pour? Ha!!!!
