A little about Uncle Jon...
I'm a soap maker, dad, husband, and entrepreneur. This is a place for me to document my life and where you can follow along!
At Uncle jon's Soap, we strive to make soap that is healthy, handmade and all natural. All the soap at Uncle Jon's Soap is hand made, hand molded, hand cut and hand packaged by "Uncle Jon" and family.
We specialize in homemade soaps and offer other fine products including sugar scrubs, soap dishes, hooded children's towels and even laundry powder.
But, we're more than just soap! So, follow us on our journey through every day life. Sometimes, I'll talk about making stuff, selling stuff, stuff I like, stuff i dislike ("Don't Be A Jerk!")... I'm an eclectic kinda guy, so that's how I'm going to format the channel :) Have fun and enjoy the ride!
As always... feel free to let me know what you would like to see discussed on the channel and I'll see what i can do. ~Cheers!

2:23 thank you for the simplicity. There’s 20+ minute videos out there APPARENTLY explaining superfat.🤷♂️
I’m new to soap making and have been trying to figure out what companies to buy from. Who sells the better product, who has the better prices and who has the best customer service. Please share your experience.
Hi, I had a lye mixture where the weight calculations were off so I couldn’t use it and I have a prebatched lye that I could not use in a timely fashion. How would you recommend I dispose of both please? Desperate new soap maker here. Was typing this in the unclog video but it ended before I pressed post and it ended up here.
YOU ... CAN... KINDLY ... UH ... DO... ...S O M E T H I N G ... WITH ... THAT .... SOUND ..
Just out of curiosity, how would uncle Jon look without beard?
Rant much bro?
I watched the video becase the title says it will discuss the differnet oils. But then it days to "google and do your research". Very disappointing.
How do you keep the soap ash away?
? I make 64 oz of soap for my mold. Sometimes there's too much and it becomes hard not drip when I move it on my self . Would lowering my water value help? TY Dawn
Great video! I like the idea of thicker pvc to progress. Thank you!
"You make soap, we make soap... Don't do that." Well thanks for the idea.. Im gonna make a medicated soap which cures skin diseases... And ya I'm a doctor and will be using real medicine in it and will get everything tested, and it's a long term goal. But thanks for the idea
I love in India and we don't have olive oil, what to use instead?
I'm way late to the party but I'll be making my first batch today and this was hugely helpful!
People make things too complicated when it does not need to be. You don't need a lot of equipment to make soap. You can get your lye and fragrance oils off Amazon a lot cheaper than most of your soap making supply shops. I know several people who get the oils they use for making soaps at Sam's Club and/or Costco. A mircowave oven is all you need to melt oils and fats. If you don't want to cut the soap spend a little bit of money on some silicone bar molds but other than that a simple kitchen knife will do. I should do a podcast episode about this considering I've been doing research on soap making off and on for years.
Thanks Uncle. The distinct lack of ppe when handling lye was quite distressing though!
Did it ever occur to you that your homemade soap is the culprit?
Thanks for the great video as I am just getting started, I am wondering what you consider a wholesale order as far as volume is concerned? Is it mixed items because since soap is usually 6 weeks to wait that would take awhile. Blessings to you!
Soy is not bad. 🤓🥰
Hi, thank for your videos. I made my 50/50 ly solution and put it in a safe container. I just touch it and it's hard. How do I reheat it so I can use it please?
I hope you come back to making videos. God bless your businesses.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can even say what the essential oils themselves do other than they're an ingrate in the soap without having to register with the FDA. Well, if you fined away to make soap that cured personality disorders, Please let me know. I have plenty of people I can buy them for as a stocking stuffer for Christmas 🤣
Great video. I have hit you with a like and follow. Glade to see your a real person when watching this video and not telling me how I was going to make $30K in 30 days and buy your book for 4 easy installments of only $19.99 Lmao 🤣🤣I'm thinking about either starting a soap making business or an epoxy business or both not sure yet. I have the epoxy and have done some pours. Just surfing the internet and trying to get some knowledge on how to start out and things not to do. Also, that's an epic beard you have.
Making claims on soaps that supposedly “cure” anything is an issue that ruins it for those of us out here just trying to make SOAP. The more stupid stuff people do, the more the rule makers create more rules.
Great video! I stick to 50/50 coconut oil and high oleic sunflower oil, I love how it feels, and it fits my budget. But when I post my recipe on any Facebook soap group everyone is gets up in arms lol. I wish more people knew that cheap oils actually make better soap 🤫
Please give me your What's app number.
Can I take a training from you?
It's not the same. Vitamin c and b are destroyed in the pasteurization process used to make the powdered milk. The fat content is altered also so it's not as moisturizing. Yes it's easier,but not the same quality as using fresh goat milk
Just discovered your channel but this is the most comprehensive explanation by far !
Such a nice video Why is the videographer breathing heavily 😢.....
Homogenize it ? You’re thinking of pasteurization. Goat’s milk is naturally homogenized.
Side note: I'd be curious as to what your experience is with the young missionaries demonizing you. I've run into them several times 😊 and have had nothing but positive interactions with them. Kind, respectful, sweet young men and women, in my opinion/experience.
I agree 100%.
Buy a 1960's ir 1970's maytag top loader and be done with it.
Look up an article called "How Washington destroyed the washing machine". I suggest everybody read it everything that's being said here is true these modern high efficiency washers are terrible. Did you not use enough water and soap to get the clothes clean. This is another failure in the whole green religion movement
You mentioned French milled soap. I LOVE French milled soap. It lasts so much longer than regular HP or CP soap. Even if you put embeds, that will help your soap to last longer also.
Forgot to say I raise dairy goats and I use their milk in my soaps but I have also used powdered milk, there is a difference in the bars. Using the milk raw and freezing it it will not loose any benefits. Whey is important, Your bars are harder using the powdered milk without having everything that raw milk has to.
What they take out is the whey part that is in the goats milk, I kinda agree the powdered is ok but defiantly it looses the extra vitamins that helps our skins out.
thank for the iformation for me learn more
Great video!!
Great tip, thank you!! So why is there less fumes with the ice, because it isn’t heating up so much?
What about cooler lye mixture into hotter oil mixture. Lye at 100 degrees oil at 150 degrees...ish
Thank you for then awesome video. Did you mention the oz for the coconut and tallow? I think I missed it. 🤔 thanks again 😊
Well, Biden wants to force companies to make machines use even less water.
I like your honesty.
So initially I wanted to do cold process soap, I did do a few batches but lately I've been wanting to try hot process just to experience it. I think depending on what kind of soap you want, you would choose either. There's plenty to know in soap making. It's super fun.

"Awful demonic machines", that require demonic lies to push on people.
Brother, you have answered some good questions I had about curing and how soon soap can be used. I appreciate you ✊🏽
I love this thank you!!
Thank you for this ❤
