We make our own soap - use it for everything - bathing, hair, laundry, dishes, etc. We collect all the grease from cooking, add lye, make soap. Low cost, great soap with nothing “bad” in it. Environmentally clean - we have no grease to dispose of in trash, recycle or whatever.
What was good for g’ma or great g’ma is still good! And it’s easy to make.
I’ve been wanting to do this and found a recipe that uses volume and not weight for its ingredients. Do you use the same pots/pans/blenders for soap as you do for food? The only thing holding me back right now is finding good used things to do this with so I don’t have to use my food items.
