In this video I demonstrate my simple approach to calculating liquid soap recipes using the easy zero-low superfat method. This method has worked very well for me in the basic liquid soap making I do at home for personal use. I hope it's helpful to my fellow hobby liquid soap makers! :)

Topics covered:
* What's unique about this approach compared to the recommended methods found in most liquid soap making books.
* A look at an example recipe from my soap making notebook to show how I record and formulate my liquid soap recipes.
* A demonstration of how I enter my liquid soap recipe specifications into SoapCalc to finalise my recipe with the correct oil, water and lye amounts.
