    I had to make a batch of soap today to stay on schedule and unfortunately I forgot I ran out of LYE. Does anyone know of a store in Northern NJ that sells LYE?

    Lye Forming Crust

    I used filtered water! No ice cubes were used. No additives. I'm not sure of the purity. It was from essential depot on Amazon. Yes I stirred until dissolved
