Hey everybody! I didn't really know where to post this because we don't have a forum that's equipment specific. But I'm looking for a multi bar silicone mold in the shape of gold bars. I'm having a lot of trouble finding such a thing on the interwebs so I figured I'd check in with the experts...

I think I have generally small loaf molds. I've seen some others that people use. I'm pretty sure mine should fit. 🤞

I went ahead and ordered the multi bar cutter from Bud Hafner. It looks really good. I also want the Herc from Custom Crafts. But that one will have to wait. Budget cuts and all that. Lol Thank you all for helping me decide.

I feel like if I'm going to go with a cutter, I can't imagine I would have a need for a single bar cutter vs cutting a whole loaf at a time. So it may be beneficial to just buy the multi bar cutter. I love that someone reviewed it with a video! Looks like it cuts great! Thanks!

Do you have any good recommendations for a high quality cutter? I'm not looking to break the bank, but the $20 slicer I bought will simply not be effective unless I make massive modifications to it. Lol

So I went ahead and purchased a metal cheese slicer to start and found that it would not cut the bars evenly. The soap loaf just slips all over. It would need a block on one side to keep the loaf in place. But the blade also bent and caused a moon shaped cut in the bar. So I guess I'm looking...

Yeah. I looked on the site to see if they had replaced it, but I didn't see any. I'm assuming they just don't sell them anymore. I'm currently looking for a good soap cutter. I don't want to buy a random Chinese made thing off Amazon. I will if I have to. But when it comes to tools, I like...

The link to that cutter says they have discontinued it.

I was curious about rancidity since collagen is a protein and not an oil. I will reheat the jar and flip it so I can easily remove it for other uses. I would be curious to make a homemade soup with it. Mushroom and Leek soup is one of my favorites.

Hello all! I've been a member of this forum for a long time. I haven't really interacted with it for years because I got away from this amazing hobby while I went through a divorce. But now I am in a much better place and taking up my beloved hobby of soap making again. My question is 2 part...

Thanks to everyone for saying hello. I've been reading through a lot of the forums. There is a lot of lingo I don't understand yet. I notice a lot of folks don't give detailed recipe quantities. I think the 2 main things I would like get from the forums are recipes and where they buy their...

I used this patchouli/sandlewood EO in my last batch of tallow soap. My soaps cured for about 2 months. They have a very earthy smell when washing but I smell great all day after I shower.

Hello, I just joined the forum. I would say I'm amazed that there is a forum for soap makers, but it's 2020 so I'm not. Lol. I am an amateur soap and candle maker. I'm an environmentalist and extreme lover of recycling. So far I have made three batches of soap (enough for an entire year of...
