Best 5 Lbs Lye For Soap Making (sodium Hydroxide Or Caustic Soda

By A Mystery Man Writer

Description

5 lbs of lye for $30.00! price is firm, and weight is firm (because I pre-weigh the bags and it's a big hull-a-balloo to go changing how much is in them, as you may know if you have worked with lye) I would be willing to charge $10/lb if you want a smaller amount. It's currently priced at $6/lb in the 5 lb bags. 5 lbs is roughly an ice cream pail sized amount and will last a VERY long time for a hobbyist and likely a couple seasons for the average business crafter for example: a loaf pan full of soap may use 4-6 oz lye. That's roughly 10-12 bars of soap. (These are gross estimations. Don't base your recipes on these numbers. Always use a lye calculator) I am a soap maker myself and I buy my lye in 25 kg bags from a chemical supply place. So I like to sell off the extra for a reasonable price which is hard to find even online. This lye is in pearl form which is like working with grains of salt as opposed to powder which can get in the air. (see second photo. That’s the white bits at the bottom of my Lye tub) Much safer to work with. I will want some assurance of you knowledge of how to handle lye safely. I am happy to share what I know as well. Please know lye must be handled with caution and kept well out of reach of children, pets and even other unknowing adults. I reccomended a Rubbermaid tub (that brand is generally harder to open then cheaper brands) well labeled either on a high shelf or on the bottom of a stack of bins. Something that takes effort to access and won't be opened by accident Pick up is in Springfield mb, which is just before birds hill park off lagemodier Blvd. 22103 Hillside road (it'll show up as oakbank on Google). I can also arrange to meet either in north/east kildonan, transcona, or regent avenue areas, but this needs to be planned well ahead of time, as I have 2 children and a newborn to plan around.

Lye is also known as sodium hydroxide and caustic soda. Lye forms a great soap base for the production of lye soap. Our lye comes in a safe container fitted with a resealable child resistant cap. Food grade lye is sodium hydroxide at the highest purity levels. It is clean of impurities and therefor safe for use in the kitchen for food preparation. Lye has traditionally been used as the main ingredient in soap making.
