Sodium Hydroxide Beads - 10 lbs.

Works great for my handmade soap. Perfect for my small business.

i was told before when i was making soap to stop using the flakes because of the dust it puts into the air, so i made the mad search for the lye beads instead. i found this company! it was a pleasure working with them. As a soap maker i have to say not only am i enjoying the no dust, these beads make it so much easier to measure out how much lye i need without going over! I just set the container in one place and take the lid off, i measure how much i need then close the top. Before i would have to struggle to get bottles open of flake lye. Now i can measure out as much as i need for 5 or more batches and never worry about dust, or particals or smell from the lye itself! Pros: No dust easy to open and dispense easy to close not clumped great for making batches of soap great for cleaning drains cons: no cons here sorry!

I make soap with it. It works great. Good price

Have used this for a while love it works great!

Like the other reviews have said, it's a bit hard to open and work with. As soon as I got it I did the difficult job of redistributing it into large canning jars, and it's been working great for me! I've made several batches of cold process soap with it and have run into no hiccups.

this is a great product. my only gripe is that the price has increased twice by a decent amount recently, but with the 'shipping clog' or whatever this seems to be the norm across all industries. for those saying the lid is hard to get off, search for 'pail opener' to find the pry tool. i for one like the lid, can you imagine accidentally tipping over a huge bucket of lye?! Also, it prevents the entire volume of air in the bucket from being exchanged. negligible if you just open and close it, but the basic lye reacts with the acidic carbon dioxide in the air and loses potency. those saying this product did not work for them, seized etc probably were sloppy about closing the lid tightly (i learned the hard way too) but this is a AAA product, just wish it were the original price of like 120-130

1/2 SHOT GLASS ( more not better) if you can smell wash no soap. cut the lye. GLASS cleans clothes like a never seen and removes smells. You can clean anything to much will burn you LOL. 1 to3 beads will clean grease off hands. Heats up quickly. Old school soap 1st soap on the market LYE / driveway , walk ways, restaurant floors, deep fryers it food grade. Even a bath about the same. Note cleans tub too so crawl out if stand you may or will fall due to all the died skin removed. Like the beads and easy pour. this produce goes up $20 every year.

This worked wonders. I have a house built in the 1950s. It still has old cesspool system in it that had started to fail over the last 5 years or so. To the point were we thought we were going to have to put a new septic systems in. I bought this as one last hail Mary as we have already tried countless numbers of products that were suposed to fix the problem with lil to no effect at all. At first after adding this ly it had no effect and to my dismay i brussed it off like the rest of the products i had use. But after giveing it about 3 weeks give or take i could see the cesspool finaly starting to drop. Was supper easy to use just poor it right in and let it do its thing. And consider the amount of money it just saved me id say dollar for dollar worth every penny
