Where and how I can get the fat to make soap?

I'm trying to get all the soap making thing, and I do not know where to get fat. A butcher? A restaurant? I have all other components (Perfume, bleach, glycerin, coloring).

It depends on what kind of soap you are doing. I've done in the past a little olive oil soap was very nice and the main fat in the soap is Olive Oil. If you want to make a more traditional soap with tallow (an animal product) then you need to get fat. Sebo get a good price (I have it) from a local slaughter house, is fat. Then you have to make tallow tallow milling small pieces and boil. This process is very stinky to be prevented. Once the oil to a liquid state to be tensions due to solids and then cool to configure. What remains is the fat on top which is now called sebum and there maybe a little liquid at the bottom that is discarded. I've done this sort soap, but not like so much. There are a lot of other fats that can be used, which are different oils are many. Just make sure you have a good recipe which gives the right proportions of oil to bleach, so if you are making soap from tallow then make sure your recipe calls for lard. If you are making olive oil soap make sure it is what your prescription. ** Edit - Also note that often the perfume is added to the soap base is made through a process called milling French. French milled soap made thinner and also ensures that there is no free lye left in the soap. Be very careful bleach because it can cause serious burns if left in your soap.
