Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Citric Acid (Anhydrous) requires no setup. It is a ready-to-use ingredient.
Compatibility:
- Culinary: Compatible with most food ingredients. Use in moderation for flavoring or preservation.
- Cleaning: Effective on most hard surfaces but avoid using on porous stones like marble or granite, and on cast iron or aluminum, as it can cause etching or corrosion.
- Cosmetics: Compatible with ingredients for bath bombs, soaps, and other DIY beauty products. Always perform a patch test for skin products.
Care:
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Citric acid is hygroscopic and can absorb moisture from the air, leading to clumping.
- Handling: Avoid inhaling the powder. Use in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves and eye protection, especially when handling large quantities or during cleaning tasks.
- Disposal: Dispose of excess product according to local regulations. Small amounts can typically be rinsed away with plenty of water.
