15.01.2022 1. Set up your work space. You’ll want to start your soap making adventure in a well-ventilated area with a well-protected work surface. In addition to your fat...s/oils, lye, and water, you will want: Eye goggles, a long sleeve shirt, and work pants, and heavy-duty rubber gloves A silicone soap mold, or a loaf pan lined with freezer/butcher paper A digital scale with at least one decimal place A stainless steel sauce pot (no aluminum) An immersion blender A candy thermometer Several plastic spoons Old plastic containers A tall glass container (a pitcher or vase works well) for blending An antioxidant to prevent spoilage. Rosemary Oleoresin Extract (ROE) works especially well, preventing oil from going rancid Optional extra ingredients include essential oils, herbs, clay, sugar, charcoal, oats, spirulina, avocado purée, goat’s milk, and natural colorants (Keep in mind that any organic matter will shorten the shelf-life of your soap, but you can extend it slightly by adding an antibiotic essential oil like lavender.) 2. Measure your oils and fats. Put the fats into the saucepan to melt while you measure your water and lye into two of the old plastic containers. Slowly put the lye into the water (not the other way around, this is dangerous!) and stir until dissolved. Be sure you have a fan running and the windows open if you are indoors. Do not breathe the fumes from the lye water. 3. Mix the melted fat with the oil. Now, get out your thermometer! The lye water solution is going to heat up. You want to mix your lye water and your fats together, when both solutions are somewhere around 120130F, within no less than 10 degrees of each other. 4. Get ready to blend! When the oil is the right temperature, put it into your tall glass container and get ready with the immersion blender. Slowly pour the lye solution into the oil, using the blender to stir without turning it on. Pulse the blender a few times, quickly, until the mixture thickens. This stage, called trace, is when you can drizzle some of the soap onto the surface in the container, and still see the outline of it, without it fully dissolving back into the mixture. 5. Mold the mix. Pour the mixture into the mold and cover with plastic wrap for at least 24 hours. Wear gloves again, as the lye may be active for another couple of days. If you can press a finger into the soap and the surface doesn’t give, it’s ready to remove from the mold. Cut the soap into bars and lay them out on a nonmetal surface to dry, turning them every few days for anywhere from four to six weeks. Adding avocado pulp to the basic recipe will make your soap extra smooth and creamy. Not sure if the avocados you have on hand are ripe...Here’s three simple tips: check color, assess the avocado skin’s texture, and squeeze gently. Try not to go above 3 percent superfat in this recipe, as the avocado pulp adds more oils and moisture. Water content should be about 38 percent of the total oil, with half being actual water and the other half being avocado pulp. Just scoop it out of the skin, throw it in a blender, and add it to the fats when they are melted. First, you’ll want to carefully cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, slice through the avocado meat length-wise and width-wise, creating little squares and, voila, you have a perfectly sliced and diced avocado.

14.01.2022 Media Release Statement from the Chairman, Jeff Connor Date: 8th September 2020 Covid19 CANCELS BLACKBUTT MARKET BAZAAR We have taken the financial risk and bu...rden to deliver an event in these uncertain times, and today we announce the uncertainty that Covid19 continues to deliver has outweighed the gain we had intended to bring to our town of Blackbutt. Therefore we are cancelling the Top of the Blackbutt Range Bazaar, Boutique and Local Produce markets on October 4. The new event was put together by the committee of the Blackbutt Avocado Festival in an effort to boost confidence and support local businesses; as well as those people who use the markets as an outlet to sell their goods and wares. However, when the South Burnett was identified as a region requiring to increase restrictions, the confidence of our community took another hit, and so did some of the confidence from travellers looking to make the South Burnett home for the October long week. When the restrictions were announced in July, the committee pushed on delivering CovidSAFE plans for the event as the South Burnett did not have any COVID19 cases. We had successfully put together a COVIDSAFE plan and was in the process of ensuring we were delivering at the highest of safety standards. However, the accumulation of increasing cases in the South-East and Toowoomba though has meant that the committee has changed their priority from putting on an event, to focusing on the needs of it’s own community and its sentiment on safety. We had also been working to meet the new Visit South Burnett tagline, ‘stay another day’ by putting an event on to compliment the October long weekend, the existing Nanango Markets in effort to capture the drive market and push dollars into our main street businesses and small business market operators that have really suffered. If there is one thing the community can be assured about, it’s that our committee has not given up, we won’t give up; we continue to work to deliver greater good to our town. There is a next event we look to, a next Avocado festival and even a Big Avocado on the horizon. We always work towards the horizon, that’s what event organisers do, it’s certainly what the Blackbutt Avocado Festival committee do.’ See more
