Room Temperature method

by Paula Roosendaal

I am new to the soap making business and have experimented with the various methods. Needless to say that the room temperature method appeals to me. I can get going without the cold process fuss. Can the room temperature method be used for any cold process recipe? When sharing this method with a hardened cold process champion I was asked if the soap will saponificate the same way as the cold process.

Answer:

Paula,

To the best of my knowledge, any cold process recipe is ok. You may need to pre-melt somethings...like beeswax or stearic acid.

As for how it saponifies...everything goes just the same once the hard oils have melted and you've added the liquid oils.

It really makes soap making that much easier and quicker.

I made my very first 3 batches of soap ever using this method and didn't have any trouble at all! I will do it again!

I have been using your method of soaping for 15 batches of soap and loving it!

It is so simple and easy to use you don't have to wait for temp on any thing.

I am putting my palm kernal oil in microwave first to semi melt but that's it.

I have talked about this method to others (CP die hards lol) and they think I'm crazy.

Let them wait to soap I want to soap now and I can with this method.

Thanks so much for sharing all of your knowledge with me, you are a blessing..Louise
