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

Simply the best drain cleaner money can buy. Be smart and wear your PPE. Also note the reaction generates heat, so don't use more than directed at any one time.

Product is as described, I use it for soap making. Use safety precautions as directed and no problems should arise!

As advertisedupdate to addgreat lye for cold process soap production.A great value .

This is an excellent product I use to make cold-process soaps. I highly recommended it to anyone interested in making an artisan quality soaps from scratch.

worked perfect for soap

Lye is notoriously caustic, but this particular batch need to have something added to it. Compared to previous batches of food grade lye, this product takes longer to heat up, doesn't get as hot, and doesn't foam as much. In fact, the fumes from using this to clean pots and pans smells rather sour. Maybe there is some sort of additive that retards the reaction with water. I was intending to use this for soap, but will probably consult a commercial supplier. It's still fine for cleaning and pretzel blanching, though.

This stuff is awesome. I've worked with other brands before and this one is super nice mainly because of the consistency of the substance. Definitely gonna buy again

Perfect for making pretzels
