I got a post on my blog from someone who has "lots of glycerin soap/glop left over from making biodiesel and wonders if I have any recipes for making this mixture into hard bars of soap"
I am a beginner at soapmaking (melt and pour for me) but I know some of you gals are experts.
He is in Namibia, I'm afraid I don't even know where that is, I hope it's not near Nigeria and is not some scam, but I hate to be so paranoid about everything. His email is michael_at_benbikes.org.za, (remove the _at_ and put in you-know-what) if you have information or a web site you're willing to share with him, please do so.

He mentioned he had looked for suggestions on line without success, and it was hard to get books in his location, but you girls have "seconded" my misgivings. I removed his post from my blog. Thanks for the feedback.

I am in agreement with Kay. I don't trust anybody from anywhere in Africa. Every time I have a litter of puppies to sell, they call and call via relay. If you don't answer, they will just keep calling. I just say "no interested". I wouldn't even email him. Just ignore it. |

Run from this guy as fast you can! It sounds like a scam to me. If he wants recipes then he can Google them like the rest of us do. I wouldn't even respond or get involved in any kind of conversation with him.

glycerin is a by-product of biodiesel manufacture, but when you make soap, it's a chemical reaction of fats/oils and sodium hydroxide which produces glycerin as well. Glycerin isn't added in order to make soap, it's created during the process.
