Hi. Does anyone have a good beard wash recipe? I'd rather make my own wash than pay >$10 for only a few ounces of wash. I've been looking around online and I'm not finding much. I figured I'd ask here and see if anyone could help me. Cheers!

Hi. Everyone was really helpful with my last question so I thought I would ask another. I'm going to try and make an activated charcoal soap. I'm just curious how much charcoal I should use. It will be a 1 pound batch. I tried googling it but I wasn't having much success. Off the top of my head I would guess about 3-4 TBS.

This seems like a strange question but I just started making my own soaps using a hot process. Everything I've seen online says it should take several hours but mine has been done after about 1.5 hours. I know it isn't recommended to test the soap on your tongue but I have done that just to check because it didn't seem like it had been long enough and I didn't get zapped or anything. The soap has been great. Besides having to rebatch my second batch because I waited too long to mold it and it crumbled when I cut it, the soaps have been nice. I guess I'm just wondering if I should be concerned because saponification has seemed to take so little time. Thanks for any input. Cheers!

I've been playing rockabilly for a while now but I've pretty much only been playing on my acoustic. I'm switching to an electric and I'm wondering which pedals might suit me best. I'm thinking of using a phaser and an overdrive. Would that work well?
