Teach Soap

So this was my second time making liquid soap. I made it in the crockpot, cooked for about 3 hours then when i went to dissolve it in the boiling distilled water it didnt dissolve, so this time i added more, still didnt dissolve so i tried heating it up then it all turned solid. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong ??

It depends on your recipe. Some liquid soap needs more water them others. Try adding more water, a little at a time til you get the consistency that you desire. Keep good notes.

Not sure, but I have had to cook my soap in a crockpot for at least 6 to 8 hours before it is cooked.

If it is not all the way cooked will it not dissolve?

Not sure on that one, it should still dissolve just be cloudy, like Soapbuddy said maybe you need to add more water or less soap in the test. I use 1 tsp of paste to one cup boiling water. I just mentioned the cooking time because that could be part of the problem. I learned how to make liquid soap watching the video on SoapQueen, really help me out.
