    Need Cat Feeder Advice

    We have the microchip feeders. Have had them for several years. Game changer for us and worth the cost. Especially when we have 3 different feeding needs in the house. One with renal failure, one with stomach issues and one that wants to eat everything in his way. They do come with a collar...

    So I just discovered firsthand what 'ricing' is :-(

    How did this batch turn out? Had this exact thing happen a few days ago.

    Ivory Soap and Restless Leg Syndrome

    Same with what others have already said. Answering anyways so you don’t think I’m ignoring you 🙂 Dill. We save all our pickle juice when we’ve finished the pickles. We make our own pickles so it makes it a bit better for us to drink. Since we’ve mastered our own brine/seasonings. My mother in...

    Tallow Recipe Help

    @AliOop Thank you 🙏🏼 I have read dozens of times about running it all through the calculators. Like I said I can not figure them out. ☹️ I do appreciate the warning though. The 1st recipe I did was from a recent video so hoped it was safe. The video was of soap someone has sold for a long time...

    Tallow Recipe Help

    Hello, I have made a tallow recipe that we were pretty happy with. Before making the next batch we want some tweak's. I am just not smart enough for the soap calculators. I've been trying since joining with no luck. Would anyone be willing to help with a recipe? This is strictly for personal...

    Thank you! I was just re reading some threads in the beginners forum and was wondering if that’s what happened. Makes sense. Maybe next time I’ll put it on a heating pad.

    First batch. Not sure why the same batter just in smaller soap molds is white and softer where the loaf is harder and darker. Will see how it is in 4-6 weeks. Thanks for the help everyone in making this happen. ❤️

    Got some supplies coming! Still haven’t ordered a mold yet. Working on that and the oils. Currently not able to go to the store. Not sure what to order online so waiting for a bit. But getting stuff coming is still exciting! Thank you all for the recommendation on supplies.

    @dibbles Very much appreciated! I've added those items to my amazon cart. Ziplock twist and lock containers are new to me so I'll look into that. I actually do have a frothing pitcher and we don't have the espresso maker we used it with anymore. I now know where it's going. @Nona'sFarm Thank...

    @AliOop Very helpful! Thank you! I am not looking to copy Dr. Squatch. Just go for what we like about it. Like the grit and the pine tar concept. That is down the line though. Just want to start basic. I'm in no rush. Just trying to actually get my buns in gear and get started. You all have been...

    So helpful y’all!!! Thank you! @KiwiMoose How’d you know!? That’s exactly what happened 😂 It started with reading another soap book that came the searching for more information online, then more YouTube videos. I’m determined to get set up asap and quit putting it off. @dibbles That is...

    Preserving Soap

    Forgive the newbie, can the bars be vacuum packaged before freezing or boxing to help them store longer and not go rancid?
