How long will the 15L container last?

Troubleshooting
The liquid is too thick to pour into a smaller bottle.
Store the 15L container at room temperature. If it has been in a cold environment, the viscosity may increase; allow it to warm up slightly.
Sudsing appears low.
Ensure your sponge is clean, as grease residue on a sponge can neutralize the surfactants. Using hotter water also improves the lathering action.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Storage: Ensure the 15L drum is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the plant-based ingredients.

Note on Components: The green discs found on the back of the container are exclusively for professional shop refill stations and do not need to be removed or adjusted for home use.
Skin Care: While gentle, ensure the cap is tightly sealed after decanting to prevent spills or dust contamination.
