Guest guest Posted December 30, 1999 Report Share Posted December 30, 1999 Sugar does add to the lather. Try 1 tsp. sugar per pound of oils. I don't know about the other items you mentioned, but sugar will add lather. Also, salt at 1 tsp per pound of oils will add hardness to soap. Disolve them in your water before adding the lye. And then, they will not completely disolve so when you are pouring the lye water into the oils don't pour the sediment in. That means that less than 1 tsp. per pound of oils would work, but I haven't done any experiments to see what the optimum amount to use would be. take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
