1922 Soap Making Manual (Free Download)

[donniej]

I stumbled across it last night. It's geared for making tons (literally) but contains lots of great info. And you can't beat the price!

There's lots of info on things like bleaching oil, use of fatty acids, uses of potash, soda ash, etc... They also go into detail about different types of soap, like laundry soap, soap flakes, etc...

I started on the first chapter, very well written. I don't know why i had an initial prejudice that the book would be much less technical.

This manual is great - and it even answered my questions on Sodium Carbonate as the caustic agent in soap! Apparently it is possible, it's a long process but possible!

Ironically it was your post that made me curious... and that's how I found it

Cool! Thanks! Now I have some bedtime reading material. For some reason I have to read something educational before I can sleep.
