"Not pure " |
COMMENTS: I've used this brand several times with cloudy results. I thought it was something I was doing wrong but after adding 1/4 of a teaspoon 3 times over the past month, I'm finally getting clear soap. The liquid soap recipe I've been testing with is basic and doesn't call for butters which would cause cloudiness. Just be aware that you may need to add more than required for full suponification.

"A must have! " |
COMMENTS: I recently started making liquid soap, but that's not why I ordered this. I like to use an 80/20 sodium hydroxide/potassium hydroxide mix in cold process soap. I read somewhere that using a small percentage of potassium hydroxide in cold process helps to produce more lather, and I have noticed a difference! It can make a slightly softer soap, so I use a steep water discount and superfat at 3-4%. I also use more shea butter and add either soft and silky e-wax or btms 25, and let the bars cure for several months. The bars are amazing, and work great for solid shampoo and beard wash!

"Does the Job without Problems" |
COMMENTS: KOH is great for shaving soap. I have used it for many batches without any issues. Just a warning: be prepared for soft (or even liquid) soap, and be careful about what container you mix it in. Over time, it caused my cheap plastic cup to break.

"No Static" |
COMMENTS: I like the flake form of lye (either kind) because of the low chance of static electricity causing it to cling to everything and bounce off of surfaces. If you work with lye, you understand how that can be very, very dangerous... This has been easy to pour, measure and weigh out and has performed beautifully in my hot process liquid Castile soap and also my shave soap recipe.
