Green product Saturdays: foam soap dispenser

A lot of soap companies offer foamer pumps now. Instead of a spurt of soap, you get a spurt of aerated soap, meaning you're using a lot less. That's good for everyone.
But you can't add new soap to most commercial foamers. So you buy a new piece of plastic every time. That's bad for everyone.
This solves both problems.
This is a refillable soap container that automatically foams the soap, so you're using less soap each time, but still enough to get the job done.
Since it never needs to be thrown away, you can buy soap in bulk (one plastic container) and keep refilling your foamer.
We use Dr. Bronner's soap for hand soap. It's organic, castile soap, fair trade and the whole shabang. If you want biodegradable liquid soap, this is the place to go.
Dr. Bronner's is concentrated and can be used at 1 part soap to 40 parts water if you desire.
This foamer take 1 part soap to 10 parts water.
So you dilute Dr. Bronner's to get it to regular soap strength, then dilute it again for the foamer.
And it still works great. And smells great.
We keep our foamer in the kitchen for washing hands, veggies, counters, etc. (You can brush your teeth with Dr. Bronner's so rinsing isn't a vital task.)
Less soap means less packaging waste. Less soap means fewer products going into our water.
You can see where the foamer is a beautiful thing.
