@debbieescobar62679 months ago I use soapmakingfriend instead of soapcalc. It will do the math for you and adjust the lye automatically in your recipe when you select citric acid as an additive. 34

@rhondalippincott90489 months ago I made these , they turned out great. Never thought I would enjoy doing the dishes, but knowing that I’m saving money and helping the environment gives me enjoyment. They remove the grease and leaves a squeaky clean ! Thank you for sharing your recipe. ... 3

@melissapeterson42029 months ago Thank you for another great video Ellen, I just want to share with anyone who might read this comment. Soap making friend is a soap calculator that i use and it calculates the citric acid for you so you don't have to do the maths! Hope you don't mind me sharing that on your channel. Thanks for sharing your recipes and information. ... 5

@Ms97Pinky9 months ago Hey there, Lady! GREETINGS FROM VIRGINIA! It’s such a breath of fresh air, having a fellow soap maker near me! I just want to tell you how smart you are. Never would I have thought to use coffee filters to wrap my round soaps and I have struggled with ways of labeling them for years. Thank you so much for that little tidbit. I am going to make this soap and we’ll see how we do on the dishes because nowadays even Dawn doesn’t do a good job cutting the grease. Do you remember how strong it used to be? It could cut the grease on anything. I always think of my fellow soap maker when I’m driving through Tennessee, heading back to Virginia from home in southern Illinois visiting family. God bless you and I enjoy your videos. ... 6

@PixieLovesItAll9 months ago Ellen, this is lovely! Thank you so much for the inspiration to finally make up a batch of these for gifts- I've been intimidated to use Citric Acid in soap but a non body bar seems like the perfect application to dip my toes into it! Where I am here in the Upper Midwest has VERY hard water so I've always heard that soap with citric acid is the best and I'm excited to see. My favourite soap calculator, Soapee, has recently added the citric acid adjustment as an option so it makes it even easier. I think I'm going to do a Lemon & Mint essential oil blend for my bars, I have a spray cleaner from Target that uses that blend to scent it and it smells divine ☺ ...

@belindaayewoh4379 months ago Hi Ellen. It's always a pleasure to watch your videos. Very pleasant and claming! Thank you. Soap making is a hobby for me. Started with researching for my son's skin ailments. Now it's to keep my aging skin looking young. Plus, making Christmas gifts is cheaper than buying them. That being said, I've made several different recipes of solid dish soaps that include citric acid from other YT videos. It's great, but after air drying dishes, there's always water spots. I live just north of Atlanta, GA on city water so I really don't think hard water is the issue. Do you have water spots after air drying dishes? ...

@arlo63459 months ago Thank you for this inspiring video. Do you have a link to the white soap dish with metal draining rack insert? That’s exactly what I’ve been looking for.
@

@kimrawls59559 months ago Hi Ellen. I store all my soap recipes in a 3 ring binder. I use plastic sheet protectors to protect them. Also, I use sodium citrate. You use 1.3% to 3.90% of the total oil weight. For example, for a 500g oil batch oil with 2% sodium citrate (.02×500), so 10 grams of sodium citrate. I find it easier to do it this way. Amazon sells it. ...

@susanravella62619 months ago It is Friday night, and I am ready to party with this new recipe! 🎉 Thank you, Ellen!
I am very intrigued at the addition of stearic acid to harden the bar. Will this also work with a body bar? I am formulating a horse shampoo bar that is really similar to your dish bar recipe , just superfatted with argan oil for shine, and although it starts out hard, it is soggy by the time my horse is clean! Do you have any thoughts on this 🤔?
Thanks, again! ... 1
