Prep Time 7 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Grater Box or Rotary Grater
  • 1 Air Tight Storage Container

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup grated soap bar
  • 1 cup washing soda
  • 1 cup baking soda
  • 1/2 cup borax
  • 1/4 cup epsom salt
  • 20-25 drop essential oils optional

Instructions
 

  • Grate castile soap bar. You can use a box stile grate or a crank. Be sure to grate as fine as possible. I run mine through the rotary grater twice. This helps the soap not get stuck to the inside of your washing machine.
  • Mix everything together in a large bowl and store in an airtight container.
  • Add in optional essential oils last.
  • Use 1–2 tablespoons per load.

Notes

Lasts 6-12 months in airtight container.
