Beef Tallow effectively controls and reduces the foam produced by beef tallow. \nFoam forms when gas is trapped in a liquid creating bubbles. \nThose bubbles can disrupt soaping process. \nThe defoaming agent reduces the surface tension of the liquid which weakens and breaks the thin film around the trapped gas (the bubble). \nThis causes the bubble to collapse and thereby reduces foam. \nHence, a defoaming agent plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth operations and efficiency. \nEssential Depot's R.E.D. use of Dimethylpolysiloxane is revolutionary. \nDimethylpolysiloxane is a silicone based defoamer. \nThat is important as silicone based defoamers offer good resistance to heat and cold, are highly safe, and chemically inert.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"“text-indent:\" padding-left:\u003e\nIn soaping, Citric Acid performs multiple functions including but not limited to:  pH balancer, stabilizer, preservative, and ameliorate hard water. \nThis Citric Acid is too minute for a re-calculation of your recipe. \nEssential Depot has undertaken soap experimentation with positive results and will have a written report sometime this Summer 2025.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"“text-indent:\" padding-left:\u003e\nIn soaping, BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene) is used a preservative to prevent oxidative rancidity and depletion of nutritional integrity including color and flavor.  \nBHT protects against the degradation of vitamins and other sensitive compounds for which you purchase Tallow.\nJust as with other chemicals, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) permits the use of BHT as a food additive, and it is listed as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) when used within specified limits.  \nThe FDA regulates the maximum allowable levels of BHT in various food products to ensure safety for consumers.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\nIf you order this meltable product between May 01 - October 31, please be aware that your product may experience changes in consistency or slight leakage. \nIf this is a problem, please do not order between May 01 - October 31.
