About Terry Knorr Expertise I can answer most questions concerning the making of handmade soaps. Those which I cannot answer, I am willing to research for you.
Experience Began making and selling handmade soaps under the name of Earth Soaps in 1994. Have since expanded under the name Good Earth Herbs to 24 different soaps. We do both retail and wholesale business. I also teach two different classes on soapmaking: a basic class and an advanced class.
Question Pls I would like you to send me the full procedure for making liquid hand wash.
Answer Hi Opeks!
I'm sorry, but I'm not qualified to answer this question. I have not been able to make what I consider a good liquid soap.
I can tell you that there are two basic methods used: Paste method, and Alcohol/lye method. Explaining each method in enough detail to keep you safe would take a book! However, there are two books I'd recommend which deal with the subject. The Soapmaker's Companion by Susan Miller Cavitch is published by Storey Publishing and is an excellent book dealing with all aspects of producing handmade soaps. The other book is called Making Natural Liquid Soaps and is written by Catherine Failor. It is also published by Storey Publishing.
