I ran to the drug store to get alcohol so I could make soap. I have a question? Does it matter what % or 'proof' it is...LOL I had to choose between 70% and 91%....

I bought 70%- does this matter?

Thanks for the info

Hi, iteach,

I've used the 70% and the 91% with no problems.

I've been told that the higher the alcohol content, the better, so I'd stay away from the 50% variety. But I think 70% or 91% should be fine. On the "Majestic Mountain Sage" blog ("Adventures With the Sage"), some of the recipes specifically recommend 70%-91% rubbing alcohol. http://blog.thesage.com/category/soap/m ... pour-soap/

Have fun! :D
