This is the recipe I use. I double it and add the smallest generic bottle of laundry soap you can find, because it will keep it a liquid form rather than allowing it to become a gel. I keep mine in a 5 gallon igloo brand drink cooler. You can also add essential oils in the scent of your choice. Homemade Laundry Soap 1/3 bar Fels Naptha or other type of soap, as listed above ½ cup washing soda ½ cup borax powder ~You will also need a small bucket, about 2 gallon size~ Grate the soap and put it in a sauce pan. Add 6 cups water and heat it until the soap melts. Add the washing soda and the borax and stir until it is dissolved. Remove from heat. Pour 4 cups hot water into the bucket. Now add your soap mixture and stir. Now add 1 gallon plus 6 cups of water and stir. Let the soap sit for about 24 hours and it will gel. You use ½ cup per load.
