Hints Tips Recipes

Using and Immersion/Stick Blender in Making Cold Process Soap:

The amount of time it takes for your soap to trace will depend on the following:

Combine your oils with your lie solution while stirring by hand. Put your immersion/stick blender in the soap mixture and turn it on to a low setting for approximately 2 minutes. If your soap has not shown any signs of trace, turn off your immersion/stick blender and stir by hand for a minute. Repeat the above steps until your trace stays even, while stirring by hand. Then you are ready to pour the soap into your molds.

Instruction for using an immersion/stick blender in lotion making:

When making a lotion recipe you will need to follow the steps that are given for that specific recipe. However, when the recipe instructs you to combine or stir your oils and ingredients you can use your immersion/stick blender to accomplish a quick, consistent blend that takes a lot less tie than stirring by hand.
