âSo while McNuggets are 'made with 100 percent USDA Grade A chicken,' as McDonalds.com states, there's no way of knowing what percentage of the whole nugget is actually chicken.â. - Christopher Ochner, Ph.D.
1 Add 9oz lye slowly to 23oz water (never water to lye) outside â even in the winter. 2  Never combine in your house! 3  Do not breathe fumes! 4  Cool to 100 degrees F. 5  Add lye water to oils and mix with a hand or stick mixer until it begins to thicken (on 5min. off 5 -10 min.). 6  Add Raw Honey and essential oils and mix.
Put all that into a lye calculator to figure out your lye and water amounts. For a 4-pound batch, use 6.23 oz. of lye and 14.50 oz. of water. Let the lye-water and oils cool more than usual before mixing â some people recommend letting them cool to quite a bit below 100F. At light trace, add about 3 tbsp of honey.
