I usually don't write reviews on any product. However, this book deserves the highest rating and recommendation. After going through every book, video or article that there is on the subject, this is by far the coronation work of soap making. Ashley Green really did her work. Ashley Green really went deep into the subject and presents it in an outstanding sequence. She didn't keep any secrets, and for that, I am very grateful. Many "books" out there just give you recipes and instruct you to stay within unexplained guidelines and rules. Ashley goes into details never explained before. This is THE book for the serious soapmaker. Complemented by her website growing content, you can't go wrong. Keep it up, Ashley... Thanks for taking the time and sharing. Great work!

Our videos are adjunct tools and resources for UG2SOAP students and intended as an additional resource for learning. With the use of the books, including the 450-700 pages of information and detailed instructions, the videos are incredibly helpful and provide visual learning aids to help increase the skills and knowledge of our students. Additionally, at the time of this video creation, we didn’t quite have the knowledge, tools, or ability to edit/include clear and precise verbal audio instructions. We are soap making teachers, not cinematographers, so we appreciate the patience and understanding of our students while we work at getting better at all of this “tech stuff.” Admittedly, I am still learning how to use my cell phone lol. Making our videos more user-friendly is something we are certainly working towards and we hope to include verbal audio and editing in our future videos! We will be working with several college students at the start of winter to help us learn how to make better and more educational videos. Stay tuned for more! Thank you for your support and I truly hope you enjoy your book! -Ashley @ UG2SOAP

We do! We use the All-Clad 600 watt immersion blender for all of our personal soaps and in our soap making classes. Most of our soaps only use the immersion blender for 2-4 minutes and they are saponified much faster, but because it is a 100% coconut oil soap, it takes a little longer (about 6 minutes for a 32oz oil batch). Highly recommend it and don't forget to use a coupon!

Since there is no stove during the "cooking process" does that mean that both the oil and lye water were hot and immediately combined together to "cook" the soap without stove?

Yep! The high temperatures from both the oil and lye solution, combined with continuous mixing, accelerates the reaction rate and completes the saponifcation process at a rapid rate.

We create all recipes and videos for our online students and they are not intended as tutorials for the beginner. The temperature you decide to use should be based on your desired process, the methodology used and your current experience and education level. If you would like to use a HTHP process, like the process shown in the video, a starting temperature of 210-215F is to be used. It should be noted that this is not a beginner process and performing advanced soap making methods without the fundamental knowledge and experience required to do so may result in dangerous and unsafe soaping conditions. If you do not have experience working with high temperatures and lye, in addition to a working knowledge and understanding of fundamental hot process soap science, it is advised to use a LTHP process with a starting temperature of 140-160F. I hope that helps answer your question and we look forward to seeing and learning with you as part of the UG2HP family! Happy soaping!

This recipe is free and available on our blog! A volcano is absolutely NOT mandatory for hot process saponification and this is a commonly perpetuated myth that drives me bonkers. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doens't! It depends on lots of different things (temperature, water concentration, fatty acid composition, additives, etc.). No worries if it didn't volcano! If you are a beginner or do not have experience working with hot process soap at higher temperatures, I would HIGHLY recommend getting your hands on a copy of The Ultimate Guide to Hot Process Soap coursebook, which can be found on our website at www.ultimatehpsoap.com/hotpro cess

Coconut oil soap is known to be super cleansing and too drying on the skin. Even burns in private parts. However, I think that hot process coconut oil soap is a little more tolerable.
@THEULTIMATEGUIDETOSOAP
2 жыл бұрын
While coconut oil does have more lauric and myristic fatty acids, using a higher superfat (such as this recipe, which uses a 30%SF and has extra fats from the coconut milk), helps reduce a lot of the cleansing ability of those sodium soaps, making it much milder in nature. We have more information about this in the blog article that is provided in our video details! Eric @ UG2SOAP

Hot process is any method of soap making that uses heat as a primary source of reaction acceleration. Our oils are heated before the video begins, but the saponification reaction takes place during the video. We use a microwave as a heat source for any batch under 120oz of oil. If you are interested in learning more about this process, we recommend checking out The Ultimate Guide to Hot Process Soap. It is an incredible place to start for beginners and will guide you through the entire hot process soap making process- from soap science, to recipe formulation and then to low temperature and fluid hot process.
