Well, coffee containing soaps are ideally suited for washing hands, and for cleaning purposes in the kitchen.

The most vital ingredient is lye. Lye is a substance that makes soap ‘hard’. 2 to 2.5 oz of lye will be required. You can purchase lye from your local hardware store.

As you pour the lye, hot sulfurous fumes are emitted that are strongly toxic. You will need to protect yourself by wearing a long sleeved apron, safety glasses, and yellow kitchen gloves. Try not to inhale the caustic fumes from the lye.

You can follow the instructions given in any standard coffee soap recipe. The fundamental chemistry that forms the basis of any soap-making procedure is a chemical reaction between fats/oils and lye. Making coffee soaps at home is quite simple if you carefully follow all the guidelines and safety tips. You can apply either the Melt and Pour method or the Cold Process method of soap making both of which are quite popular.
