homemade liquid laundry detergent

Good morning all,
I am posting this so that I don't lose it. I already use the dry version but want to try this too.
So take one bar of soap ( I prefer Sunlight) grate it, put it in a large pan. Add 1 gallon hot water, stir to dissolve the soap flakes. Bring to a boil. Add 1 cup Borax and 1 cup Arm and Hammer washing soda.  Mix, add another gallon water.  When it cools it will thicken.  Use 1/2 cup per load. Apparently over 550 loads of laundry can be washed per recipe and the cost per load is just pennies.
Have a good day.
