Baking Soda Soap

[soap_opera]

Hi All,

Can anyone help me with a recipe for making baking soda soap, the kinda like Grampa's or anything closely similar. I need to know at what point I should add the baking soda and how much to add.

personaly i do the cphp method and would add it after the cook off.
mix well before scooping off into moulds.

it is used in bath bombs to help soften and smooth skin.
in soap it should also add texture as would any type of, say flours
or powders such as cocoa powder.
not to mention add its slight cleaning power
