I DIY.ed my first batch of Castile soap, (1.5 litres) but I used an
old Bamix blender not thinking ahead. The Bamix blender stalk is
made of aluminium, the soap is made of olive oil and sodium
hydroxide so I have ended up with soap containing maybe an amount of
Sodium aluminate.
I am wondering how much, and the danger of using it (seems a pity to
waste 1.5 litres of oil at today's prices.

My only question is why?



Because there may not be any reason to discard it.


No, I meant why make your own soap.



Because I can, it is so easy,and am a Mean miserable so and so.
