A couple of time a year I buy 10 lbs of bacon from Sam’s and spend and afternoon deep frying the bacon in olive oil (I then portion the bacon out in single serving bags and freeze, but that is a different topic for a different forum). I end up with more oil then I started out with from the grease off the bacon. I normally pour what will fit into the container and toss the rest. I then use this bacon grease / olive oil for sautéing.
My question is can I run this oil through a coffee filter to pull out the chunks and then use this bacon grease / olive oil mix to make soap with? I was thinking using also to use beer instead of water and this would make a great gift for men.
Any thoughts?
