Recommended: compostable dishcloth. See image.

Dissolving solid soap: 1-3 tbsp to 10l of warm water. Dissolve the soap in the warm water. The solid soap is very highly concentrated. Keep in mind that one jar is equivalent to 1.4l of liquid soap, so it takes a while to dissolve such a concentrated product. Feel free to use slightly warmer water and process/whisk the soap in the water for a while and it will dissolve. If you primarily use soap to wipe floors with a mop, we recommend the liquid variant that dissolves immediately.

Wipe glass cooktop: Take solid soap on a moistened soft kitchen sponge. We recommend the soft cellulose-based, diamond-patterned sponge.

Wipe with sponge and soap, then wipe with a lightly moistened dishcloth.
