 INTRODUCTION

 Soap has been produced around the world for

millennia. Soap is primarily made for its use as a
cleansing agent, however it is also used widely in
industrial settings as an ingredient in grease and other
industrial lubricants.
Objectives (state 3 objectives of this activity)

The activity aims to achieve the following objectives.

 Apply the knowledge that we learned during the discussion

 Develop skills in soap making
 Have experience in soap making
 HISTORY
 the earliest known soap recipes were recorded on ancient Babylonian clay tablets
around 2800 BC. Systematised soap making industries first appeared in Syria and
other Middle Eastern countries around the eighth and ninth centuries AD.
 Xianrendong Cave, Jiangxi Province, China, the first example of a soup bowl was
discovered and thought to date back to 20,000 BC. The ancient pottery showed
scorch marks, which would suggest the user was making a hot soup of some kind.
 While this is the earliest example of a soup bowl, ancient soup makers
may have simply dug a pit, lined it with animal skin or gut, filled this
“pot” with water and dropped in some hot rocks.

 Soap is the product of a chemical reaction between white, alkaline crystals

called lye (also known by the chemical name sodium hydroxide) with
triglycerides (the chemical name for oils, waxes and fats). The scientific
word which describes this chemical reaction is saponification.
 Ingredients

 Results

 The final result of soap making using water, oil, lye and coffee ground soap. This
soap typically has exfoliating properties from the coffee ground and may have a
subtle coffee scent. After the curing process, the soap becomes solid and ready for
use. It can be an excellent addition to your skincare routine, providing cleansing
and exfoliating benefits. Always test a small amount on your skin before regular
use to ensure compatibility
Discussion: compare your results with published results on soap
making

 While soap making and wine making serve different practical

purposes, the comparison highlights is artistry, and attention to
detail that characterizes both crafts. Each involves a transformative
process that turns raw ingredients into a finished product with
unique characteristics.
 Conclusion and Recommendation
 soap making is a rewarding and versatile craft that combines science and creativity.
Through the saponification process, fats and oils are transformed into soap, a cleansing
agent that has been used for centuries. The art of soap making allows for the customization
of ingredients, scents, and shapes, providing a unique and personalized product .
