"Works Great" COMMENTS:  I love using these flakes opposed to the beads because the beads have a tendency to make more static and can end up all over. These flakes are much easier to handle with less chance of them spilling out like the beads do. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Cold Process

"Lye flake disaster" COMMENTS:  I made several batches of our CP soap with this product and ended up with undissolved lye issues in every batch. I prefer granule lye over flakes and definitely learned the hard way on this one. Perhaps I did something wrong, but I find the flake to be harder to handle/measure. If your a new soap maker, watch carefully to make sure it has completely dissolved, I make goat milk soap and soap with lye/milk mixture at 80-100°. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Cold Process

I get a cleaner dissolve, never any lye lint, and my soap feel different when unmoolding and using. Might sound silly.. but I've done my testing.. and comparisons.. and these are best I've found!

"Works perfect." COMMENTS:  I've never ordered flakes before, but I thought I would give them a try. Price is really good per ounce (which is why I decided to try it), a bit "powdery" but works very well. By "powdery" I mean that when pouring into my measuring container, there is some "smokey" fumes that come off them that I never experienced with the bead type. Not an issue if you wear a mask like I do. Performs perfectly and I will definitely order again. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Cold Process

Donna • Oregon Date Submitted:  07/16/2019 I Recommend This Product!

"Very easy to use - no static!" COMMENTS:  I really like this lye. The product I used before was in a bead form that tended to hang up on the container due to static. The flakes don't do that at all. I was concerned that the flakes might be slow to dissolve, but I did not experience any problem with that at all. There is no difference at all in my hot process soaps or shampoo bars from those made with the lye beads, so I am a happy convert! The container is easy enough to open, considering that it needs to be child-safe and moisture proof. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Hot Process, Soap - Shampoo Bars THINGS I LIKE   THINGS I'D LIKE TO CHANGE • Ease of use • Good price • Secure container • Can't think of a thing to change.

"Better than the granules! " COMMENTS:  These flakes are the way to go. They dissolve better than the granules--I strain my lye solution when I pour it into the soap batter and I noticed the flakes leave behind fewer clumps.

"Great price, wish it was granulated" COMMENTS:  I love the idea of flake lye because you don't get the tiny granules bouncing everywhere and sticking to things, but...I've found it just doesn't dissolve well into frozen goat milk. I end up with large flakes in the bottom of my lye pot that just won't dissolve. I am sure it's just the cooler temperature that is required to dissolve lye into milk, but sadly can't use this. Now if you all sold sodium hydroxide in granulated as well, you'd have a steady order from me!

I also like that the containers are thick and extra child safe (sometimes i struggle to open it too haha - very safe indeed!). The only problem is sometimes the lye is stuck together in a huge clump, so it's a bit hard to get it out of the container, but besides that this is my go-to lye!

"If you Soap with goats milk, use this!" COMMENTS:  This works so much better than the small powder or beads when you are soaping with real goats milk and trying not to burn it because these flakes take longer to dissolve. I do freeze my milk first, but the powdered lye still acts too fast and I always have to use ice baths, but not with these flakes, it’s a game changer for sure.

"Works well." COMMENTS:  I used to buy lye grains, like even sized pebbles of sand, I saw this stuff & that it claimed not to have static flywaways like the grains do. I thought I'd give it a try. Static did get reduced to almost none, but the only thing I noticed was that the grains used to mix into the water & my lye/water bucket would look empty & clean when all was done & poured out. However, the flakes & water, once I pour it out, later on their is a waxy like white coating or residue on the bucket walls.. I don't know if that is inert ingredients? Perhaps this lye is less pure than the grains I used to buy? Doesn't seem to effect my soap though, my finished soap works good.

"Poor packaging" COMMENTS:  I hate leaving bad reviews, but I get 1-2 good 3lb batches out of one of these containers then the rest of the batches flop. I asked a question about suggested storage and WSP assured me the containers are airtight. No matter how tight I seal it, the majority of the lye fails after I open the container. Unfortunately, I have 4 containers left so I am going to find airtight containers for it once I open. I will most likely be sourcing my lye elsewhere from now on as I cannot afford to waste supplies. I think the lye is fine, just maybe place the lye in a different airtight container after opening. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Cold Process THINGS I LIKE   THINGS I'D LIKE TO CHANGE • Packaging

"Consistent Quality" COMMENTS:  This sodium hydroxide has a nice, consistent quality every time I purchase it. I like the larger flakes because they are easier to notice if undissolved in the lye solution. Packaging is in tall, sturdy plastic bottles that are easy to open but have a good child-proof mechanism. I will always reorder this product!

"Great quality" COMMENTS:  This lye is big and very potent compared to others I’ve used. I do love it. Wear a mask! Stronger fumes than any other brand I’ve used. If you use frozen milk with this, sift out the big chunks before adding or it’ll take forever to dissolve. I really love this brand! Highly recommended.

"Poor Shipping Packaging" COMMENTS:  I make hot process soap. This NaOh dissolves easily in water with minimal fumes or boiling/splatter. Using water at 38% in my recipe, I have not been able to get fluid soap. When I used another brand of NaOh with the same recipe it was almost too fluid, so the brand of NaOh does make a difference. The way this was packaged wasn't good. I got 2lb and the entire 32oz container was placed in a ziplock bag that was too small to be closed. There were white flakes in the bag and on the outside of the jar and very likely on the other items I ordered that all came in the same box. As soon as I opened the box and saw this I put on gloves and all my lye gear and doused everything in vinegar and cleaned each item. I wish I could submit an image with my review to show how the loose NaOh ate away the ink on the outside of the bottle. I've since ordered NaOH from other places and the packaging was night and day compared to this. Very unsafe. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Hot Process THINGS I LIKE   THINGS I'D LIKE TO CHANGE • Dissolves easily with minimal fumes. • Needs better shipping packaging! • Should be sealed in its own bag.

"Easy to work with " COMMENTS:  I have always used the beads and never flakes. I was very scared to try them. The place I bought lye beads from kept increasing theyir shipping and prices. So I gave the flakes a try. I won’t lie, my first try was a fail. Because I had always measured the lye in cup measurements,( I know, shame shame). I finally started measuring in ounces after All these years. And guess what? Yup, I like making soap with the flakes much better. I don’t have to worry about the static with the beads anymore. ??

"Chunky" COMMENTS:  Great price, this totally affects my bottom line, so thanks for making this affordable in a reasonable amount. Just a heads up, some of these "flakes" are more like rocks, so just be sure you're ready for that, could be an issue if you're trying to measure really small batches. I think I was also surprised that there is no protective seal when you open the 2lb canister, it's just a plastic tub with a squeeze top cap. I can see how this might be helping keep the price low and I like not having to worry about lye coated trash, but I worry about moisture getting in over time. Also, I had a lot of issues with shipping so it basically took a month to get to me...I'm guessing that wouldn't happen again, but it's added a lot of pressure for my holiday schedule.

"Worked Perfectly!" COMMENTS:  So first-time soapmaker here! My first batch of soap was made with no colors or fragrance just to test the process, and it came out perfectly! The packaging is nice for the 2lb container because I have younger people in my house and they aren't able to open it. I do wish for a way to get the sodium hydroxide out of the container without making too much dust. I do this outside so as to not contaminate my house, but sometimes the wind changes directions and I end up getting a face full of dust. I do have safety equipment, but it is still a hassle to stop, wash my face, and hands and then continue measuring. In terms of performance in soap though, as I said, I have no complaints.

It makes clean up of any minor spills way easier since they don't roll. I also noticed that the bars of soap I made with this lye are much harder. I assume this is because of it's purity.

These are easy to see and easy to work with. I also like the secure packaging. I have small children at home, so having my lye in a secure container is essential.
