Making Soap from Scratch is a great book for the DIY soap maker. Every detail in the process of soap making is covered without being overwhelming. Small batch and bulk soap making are both thoroughly covered. I was very impressed with the chapter detailing the actual recipes. The recipes cover everything from the super luxurious to the more economical. Resources and suppliers are also listed to make gathering all the ingredients very easy. This book will be an invaluable reference tool in my personal soap making practice.

This is one of a couple of books that I have picked up recently on soap making. I'm new to the hobby for sure, though its something that I have always wanted to do. I finally decided to go for it since I still shave with a mug and brush, and have used shaving soap for years that I buy on Ebay that others have whipped up themselves. I thought it was about time I took a shot at it, and have since found it a very fun and satisfying hobby. (And the house always smells so nice). Plus, I get to make the soaps as sudsy and as fragrant as I want, in any scent I want. This book "Making Soap" reminds me in some ways of the old cliff notes the way it is so straightforward and lean in its presentation. Just the facts ma'am is a good way to describe the way this book roles along in explaining the basics, the materials needed, lots of recipes and helpful tips, all without any chapter that speaks of the authors story of getting into soap making, or the history of it. If you would like a book that contains a lot of history and personal glimpses on the subject, this book is not for you. Instead it reads very easily, and is clear and precise in making it as simple as possible for the true beginner. I really like this book and feel it is all anyone should ever need that is thinking of getting into the soap making game, and is just interested in keeping it real... : )
