Getting Ingreients


  • After looking through numerous recipes, Madisell came up with a list of ingredients to start with. To start we went to the local grocery store to purchase smaller amounts of each ingredient, because we were not sure which would work better with each other. We got the basic 3 main ingredients, which consist of borax, washing soda and baking soda. To add that extra bit of cleaning power recipes called for bar soap as well, so we got several different brands of soap to test which haas the best cleaning capabilities. Some of the soaps we tried were:
  • Dial
  • Ivory
  • Irish Spring
  • Octagon
  • Dove
  • and several others
Our next step will be to make several different batches of the detergent and figure out which has the best cleaning capabilities.
