lye solution has particles floating around

I use a large Rubbermaid pitcher to mix my lye and Ikea has these great little white plastic pitchers that are great for measuring liquids and mixing ingredients like colors etc.

If they look like tiny soap flakes, then don't worry. I believe we all have them, every batch I make ends up having them and they always turn out, as in not lye heavy, not perfect batches, boy I've had some stinkers.
