This is how I make my laundry soap. Had a few "technical" difficulties holding camera and doing stuff. 1 bar grated Fels-Naptha or Zote enough water to cover grated soap in a pot 2cp 20 Mule Team Borax (if you want it thin use 1/2 cp) 2cp. Super Washing Soda (thin use 1cp) I put the soap and water on the stove on medium heat stirring frequently. Once that is all dissolved I remove from heat, put it in the bucket with the Borax and SUPER WASHING SODA(I said baking soda in the video) stir it up. Then I add 1/2 a bucket hot tap water, stir again, then fill up the bucket with hot tap water. Stir one more time and you can add essential oils if you want and then put a lid on it(I use aluminum foil you can use a regular lid). The bucket will get fairly hot to the touch as the soaps/borax interact with each other and its cooling down. Now once you have let it sit for a day or overnight you can open it up stir it really good and pour it into your laundry soap containers. Some people like to use a 50/50 ratio of soap and water when filling the dispensers, I don't. I like the thicker variety. It is important that you shake your detergent bottle before each use, and I fill the washer up with water and soap, then put the clothes in it. Just to make sure that the soap dissolves. The soap does not produce many bubbles but the clothes come out really clean, and fresh smelling.
