I've been wanting to up my game in soap making and have come to the point where I feel equipment like oil heating pots would greatly benefit my efficiency. The issue I'm finding is all the soap making equipment is crazy expensive. Do y'all know if there are any websites or places that might sell used equipment? I'm thinking of starting with a 6 lb. pot and see where it goes from there. Cheers!

One of my friends is an electrical engineer, and he rigged up an old coffee urn for his wife’s soap business. In the past, I found a three soup server, and could set the oils at 120F and that worked great too. So while you may look at soapmaking gear, cheesemaking and hot pots and coffee urns may also fit the bill!
That's great. I love how they can set the temp...most of the cheaper pots on Amazon won't do that.
Soap-making equipment can get pricey. Check sites like eBay, Craigslist, or Facebook Marketplace for used gear. Sometimes restaurant supply stores or local buy/sell groups have affordable options too. Good luck!
