Sodium Carbonate (Washing Soda) – 100g

Sodium Carbonate (100 g) — your multipurpose ally in brewing, cleaning, and chemistry

From adjusting mash pH to deep-cleaning your equipment, our food-grade sodium carbonate (commonly known as soda ash) offers reliable performance at home or in the lab.

Why Sodium Carbonate?

• Raise pH / buffer alkalinity — Commonly used to increase mash pH or temper overly acidic water.

• Powerful cleaner / degreaser — Effective at breaking down organic residues, beerstone, and grime (especially useful on tubing, fermenters, etc.).

• Low corrosion / mild on metals — Safer than harsher alkalis when used correctly in diluted solutions.

• Precise dosing — Easy to measure in small increments for controlled adjustments.

• Versatile use — Applicable in brewing, winemaking, cleaning, DIY chemistry, and educational projects.

Typical Uses & Guidelines

Pro tip: Always pre-dissolve in warm water before applying, and add gradually while stirring. For cleaning, apply diluted solution and allow contact time before rinsing thoroughly.

Specifications & Packaging

• Net weight: ~100 g

• Packaging: resealable, moisture-resistant pouch

• Purity: Food-grade / technical grade (as specified)

• Appearance: White crystalline powder

• Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry place — sodium carbonate is hygroscopic (absorbs moisture readily)

Warnings & Best Practices

• Use protective equipment (gloves, eye protection) when handling powder or concentrated solutions

• Avoid inhalation of dust — handle carefully in ventilated space

• Do not mix with strong acids in closed containers

• After cleaning or pH adjustment, always rinse thoroughly to avoid residual alkalinity

• Keep out of reach of children
