The flowchart describes how soap is handcrafted using a few ingredients and some tools.
Overall, soap is made in 8 main stages, from preparing the ingredients to cutting it into pieces for home use.
First of all, coconut oil is weighed and melted. At this point, distilled water, which is precisely measured, is added to the melted oil. Following this step, some essential oil and a colorant of choice are whisked into the other ingredients. After that, lye, which is a chemical substance used in the production of washing products, is added before all the ingredients are mixed using a blender.
In the subsequent step, the mixture is heated up at 140-degree centigrade to be melted before being poured into a mold. The mold is then covered with a towel to keep the heat for 24 hours. Lastly, soap, which is removed from the mold, is cut into slices before being used for personal consumption.
