Soap Making – Tools for soap making. Some of the tools which will be discussed will be needed only in the manufacture of soap “from scratch”.
For making soap at home are suitable utensils and tools made of glass, plastic and stainless steel.
Pots, bowls and cups for mixing must be large enough so that you can put all the components in them and still have room for the free mixing.
Capacities where there will be an alkaline solution, should be heat resisting. All items that you use for making soap in any case no longer use for food.
The most important tool – exact scales with divisions isn’t less 1 gram. The scales should be large enough that it could accommodate a half-liter of liquid. Fluid will be measured by weight rather than volume, to maintain measurement accuracy.
We would also need goggles, gloves and an apron to protect; hand grater for rubbing soap base or soap residue, a machine for grinding plants.
For molds can be taken out of the cups of yogurt, disposable tableware, food containers, silicone bakeware. Also, on offer are special silicone molds for soap. You can still use plastic or silicone molds for ice. These molds come in handy if you want to create a tiny soap for decoration.

Oils You Can Use To Make Homemade Soap
Choosing the best oils for your soap creation is oftentimes the main key to a perfect bar of soap.
Oils come in different forms (saturated, unsaturated, super fatting and scenting oils and/or fats) and smells. It’s necessary for you to be familiar with them, especially if you feel that you are in an experimenting mood and may want to try different oils for different soap outcomes.
Here are just a few of them that you can use:
Almond Oil (Sweet)
A light moisturizing oil that absorbs well, it produces a low lather and is efficient when it comes to soaps – add an ounce per pound of fats to your soap mix at trace (this is the term used for the stage where the soap/lye mixture thickens).
Avocado Oil
Used for super fatting (if you add any oil or substance at this stage, the ingredient stays in its natural form and won’t be blended with the mixture), avocado oil is a great moisturizer and its healing properties come to full blast as you include it in your batch. Rich in vitamins A, D and E, you can use it up to 30 % as a base oil. You can use this when you are making baby soap, as this is often used in gentle soaps for people with sensitive skin.

Coconut Oil
This is the oil that does all the magic for your soap – it gives out a bubbly later when your final product is ready for use. Don’t use too much of this though, as an excess of this will be too much drying of your skin. It makes a white, very hard bar of soap which lathers even when you use sea water or hard water. Use only 20 to 30% of it in your base oils.
Cottonseed Oil
While this produces a generous, thick and lasting lather, it is recommended that this be used sparingly as it can spoil easily, depending on what season you are in. Should you decide to use this, a maximum usage of 25% of total base oils is recommended.
