@real.lye.co1: Most people see wood ash as something to throw away. I use it to make potassium hydroxide, the lye that turns oils into liquid soap. At Real Lye Co., I make my own lye from scratch because I want to understand the whole process, including the part most soap makers skip. Check out my page for more traditional soap making and lye chemistry, or visit my shop to try the soap I make with it. #naturalsoap #homestead #soapmaking #chemistry #lye
