Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 HI Robin Home made soap has lye in it which turns to soap when a specific process is used combining it with oils. Commercial soap is made with other chemicals. The soap process using lye is very specific and exact measurements are a must. There are many good books including mine that you could read in order to make soap at home. And you will need a lye calculator as well. hth Sherry author of Natural Care Products http://sherrys-creations.tripod.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 I will take 20 lbs also. Will it come in 1 or 2 lb containers? Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Re: Lye Last time I bought it, I got 50-ish lbs., but I'd get 20# or so. Don't want to bother with just a few lbs. though.
