Water Substitution in Soapmaking: Oktoberfest Edition
Class explains the dangers and secret techniques of substituting other fluids for the water portion of cold and hot process soapmaking. Students learn how to safely replace water with beer, yogurt, fresh milk, fresh juices, herbal infusions, and hydrosols.
In this special Oktoberfest version of Soapmaking 225, learn to make the wildly popular beer soap! Learn the tricks and special techniques to substituting the water portion of cold process soap with goat milk, heavy cream, yogurt, buttermilk, fresh juices, wine, spirits, and of course beer. During this Soapmaking 225 class, we will make three different batches of soap: Goat milk soap, Shock Top Pumpkin Ale (beer) soap, and soap made from canned pumpkin. Don't miss the special demonstration of making fall harvest soap cupcakes using canned pumpkin in place of water for the bottom "cake" portion and piped goat milk soap for the top "frosting."
