Tools: Some people like to put soap in stainless steel pot. The beakers I use vary in size and price, about 2 to 6 pieces. 1L glass beaker seems to be 5 to 6 yuan. I usually use 1L beaker for soap, 50ml for sodium hydroxide and 250ml for water-soluble alkali. Buy a few as needed.
The measuring range of red water thermometer is 100℃. When two kinds of oil and alkali are needed for temperature measurement, about 2-3 yuan cannot be mixed.
Two stainless steel spoons (1.5 yuan), one soluble in alkali and oil, which cannot be mixed.
The above tools are sold in chemical stores and are cheaper than Taobao. Beakers are fragile and difficult to transport. It's best to buy it in a nearby chemical store. It's cheap and safe.
Then there's the blender. Some people beat eggs manually with a blender, ranging from 10 yuan to more than 20 yuan. Manual stirring rods and hand-held mixers are all tens of dollars. I use an electromagnetic stirrer, which can adjust the stirring speed and temperature. The simpler one is probably 150 yuan. After mixing this oil with alkali, it is of little use. Just take a medicine spoon and stir for a few minutes. T is also faster than manual operation. I bought it at the chemical store, too.
If weighing scale doesn't do much, it's not convenient to sell that kind of jewelry. If you don't do much, you can buy a kitchen scale. If you don't do much, you can buy a kitchen scale. It is also Taobao. I bought jewelry. If 50 yuan is too much, it will be inconvenient. Don't use two beakers to measure one part and pour it into another beaker before weighing the other part, so be sure to think it over before buying.
The mold can be a jelly box, a juice milk box, and then a silicone or wood mold bought online. Different sizes, different prices. There are many basic 500g molds such as ice cubes, jellies and chocolate molds purchased online in 50 yuan. It is inconvenient for me to use it, and it is easy to fail demoulding (this is my personal opinion). If you use a wooden mold, you'd better pad paper for easy demoulding. The transparent one I bought seems to be called oiled paper Taobao. I can use it twice.
If you don't pay attention to your soap cutter, you can use a scrapped magnetic card. I used a phone card or something at first, but the disadvantage is that it is not easy to cut the card if the soap is hard. Then there are soap knives or stainless steel knives with hardness ranging from 5 yuan to 30 yuan. The disadvantage is that it is easy to stick the knife. I use a string knife, and the price varies from 13-20. The disadvantage is that it is easy to cut the knife, so I can use a soap cutter myself. I used two boards to measure the incision. There are ready-made soap cutters 50-65
Rubber gloves or medical gloves Rubber 3-7 yuan, a pair of medical gloves, I bought 1 yuan, both of which were bought in the market. Because sodium hydroxide is corrosive, take it with you when cutting soap. On the one hand, it can protect your hands, on the other hand, it is easy to leave fingerprints on the soap with your bare hands, which affects the appearance, because the soap is still soft when cutting it.
Goggles, masks and aprons are generally available in supermarkets. Never used, the price is not clear. It is estimated that there are only a dozen or twenty.
If there are few shelves for putting soap, you can find a carton to put it in. I made more than five boxes and replaced them with small plastic shelves for the kitchen. The 25-50 yuan Night Market on the fourth floor is cheaper than the supermarket. One more thing: when there are flowers to dry soap at home, it is best to find something that is breathable and lint-free, and it can also be dust-proof. I bought a very thin interlining of 1 yuan per meter.
Then there is waterproof heating such as grease. I can take the box that came with my previous purchase, or find an unused basin. It doesn't have to be specially prepared, but it's better to be dedicated.
I use a foam box to keep warm, or I can cover it with blankets and quilts.
For the sake of beauty, you can put a soap stamp on the soap. Taobao has done 30-60 yuan did not wait for me to do 45mm in 40 yuan.
Making soap:
Firstly, this formula is used to calculate the weights of oil, sodium hydroxide and water.
Weigh out water and sodium hydroxide, pour in sodium hydroxide while stirring, and release heat and steam. It is best to hold your breath or wear a mask in a ventilated place.
Generally, solid grease is heated in water to melt grease.
When the temperature of oil and sodium hydroxide solution is 45-50 degrees Celsius (the temperature must be the same, and the maximum difference is 65438 0 degrees, otherwise it will be easy to fail), pour the sodium hydroxide solution into the oil and keep stirring until it is beautiful, add SF oil and various essential oil additives, stir evenly, then enter the mold (if the mold is not covered, put plastic wrap on the surface to prevent soap from contacting the air), and take it out and cut it after 65438 0-2 days.
The above personal views and experiences, I hope to help you.
