Sodium Hydroxide - Pure - Food Grade (Caustic Soda, Lye) (2 Pound Jar)

Fabulous for soapmaking. Easy to use without risking unnecessary exposure, dissolves well, good quality. My soap set up great. I've also made pretzels with it and it is perfect for that as well. Works super well and is a decent deal for the amount!

This sodium hydroxide is excellent for homemade soap making. It’s pure, consistent, and works exactly as expected, allowing for smooth and successful saponification. I appreciate the quality and reliability, which are crucial for safe and effective soap production. It’s easy to measure and handle when proper safety precautions are followed, and it produces great results in both bars and specialty soaps. Overall, this is a dependable and essential ingredient for anyone making soap at home.

Use for making tallow soap! Works well and the soap turned out very nice!

I bought this for soap making. It has worked very well. It is the best value for the product I have found. It pours easy and does not clump up in the bottle. It is a large enough bottle that I have been able to make several loafs of soap with one bottle. I will continue to use this product.

High quality product, very pure and great value for money. Dissolves easily and the container is Child-resistant for safety, but also easy to open for being child-resistant. I use this for adjusting the pH of liquid supplement blends when necessary and as a result wanted to ensure I had a food grade product. I also use this when making pretzels, as I believe it makes a superior product to using something like baking soda. Do be careful when using this product, in raw form I would recommend wearing gloves and splash-proof goggles. Sodium Hydroxide is a great product when used as intended, but as a very strong base it can be very dangerous when used haphazardly.

I used this caustic soda to make homemade soap, and it worked really well — the texture and consistency were perfect. However, the final color of the soap came out much darker than I expected. Overall, I’m happy with the result, but I wish it looked a bit lighter.

Bought for soapmaking. Just what I expected! Good product.

Helps me make cp soap. Works great from what I can tell.
