I've got alum on order. My kid isn't old enough to do this one unsupervised, but this is our plan for next weekend.



Where can I get it?


I found some food grade stuff, there's probably a reseller near you. Apparently it's used for pickling?

Yes, for sure. At least in the US, it will be in the spice aisle at your local generic grocery store (Safeway, Kroger, Walmart, Meijer, etc), although keep in mind that it is a very small container - on a cost-per-weight basis you are going to get a much better deal somewhere else.


That’s true regarding cost, but I’ve had the same little container for about 8 years now. I rarely need it, and I generally need a small amount. So it might not be too important to get more for less.

And you’re also right about where to get it. Mine was near the pickling spices in the spice aisle of a supermarket.


Try a shaving supplies website, I think.


I got some years ago from ebay.
