kiva Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Hello everyone !First time posting....but i've lurked on the board for sometime now:) I want to try my hand at cold&hot process soap!...I have two questions?Does the CROCK POT used for HOT PROCESS SOAP have to be White....someone gave me a black slow cooker, can I use that for making soap?Have any one made LIQUID CASTILE SOAP from scratch, I want to use the liquid castile in my shower gels......I see some suppliers sell it...but I want to see if I can make it on my own first.....has anyone ever made it from scratch?

younggrasshper Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I'm using a ugly brown crockpot, and I think my soap is turning out ok! I have no clue on the castile soap, but thought I'd let you know that my crock pot works! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hem06 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 i do my castile in a crock pot. I love CP but I hate WAITING!!It does take longer to cook-but traces faster than CP (the heat, I think.)I do find that you may not get the same "white" color from it as you would doing CP tho. Mine usually end up off white or green-y. But they lighten over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
