Lye is made with a Lye maker dwarf at an ashery and requires 1 block of ash and 1 bucket. It is used to make soap and potash, though potash can also be made directly from ash. 3 lye must be moved from the buckets into a barrel to make the soap.
Why make potash out of lye instead of ash?
- To train your dwarfs by making them do extra tasks
- If you have left over lye from making soap
- Lye can be bought at the "embark" screen but ashes cannot
