Notes
- Be sure to check out the recipe variations in the post above. I share recipes for lemon goat milk soap and charcoal goat milk soap.
- Check out the step-by-step images in the post above or the video in this recipe card for visual reference.
- I usually get about 8 soap bars out of 2 pounds of soap base, but this will depend on the size of your soap molds.
- Soap base can take quite a while to melt down. You can expedite the process by cutting it into smaller cubes.
- Once the soap base is melted, you'll want to work pretty quickly. The soap base cools rather quickly and becomes hard to work with. If this happens, just melt it back down before continuing.
- If you don't have a double boiler, no problem! You can craft one by setting a glass bowl on top of a pot of boiling water.
