how to make goat milk soap

[little blue]

we have been milking our goat and our baby can not drink as much as she is making so we were going to try to make some soap or lotion from goat milk and we were wondering if anyone has any good recipes.
thanks for any help.

Replace all the water in the soap recipe with goats milk. Temperature control is critical, though! Have you soaped before? If not, I do not suggest making soap with goats milk to start. The reaction with the liquid (water, goats milk, whatever) plus lye gets VERY hot. Many people freeze most of their milk before soaping with it, and then also plonk the container the mixing will happen in into a bath of ice water, too.

If precautions like that aren't taken, the goats milk will burn and become all nasty. I did it once, it was awful.
