About temperatures for soap making (CP & HP)

Hi everyone, many of you have requested a video on the topic of soap making temperatures, so here it is! Thanks so much for your patience if you were waiting for this one, I'm slowly making my way through my list of videos 'to do'.

In this talk I discuss:
▪ Why I don't take the exact temperature of my oils and lye for many of my soap recipes.
▪ When it is important to use a thermometer (or otherwise gauge the temperature) in cold process soap making, including an explanation of 'False Trace'.
▪ An explanation and some tips about using the 'Heat Transfer Method' in cold process soap making.
▪ A simple approach that will work for most soap recipes if you aren't sure.
▪ How I gauge the temperatures in my soap recipes (high and low tech).
▪ My approach to temperatures for hot process soap making.
