Castle Soap: tell me how to use this

[cintinative]

I have a few year old bottle of this my MIL gave me. I am embarrassed to admit I have never used it nor do I know how. The bottle is covered with notes and such but hardly any instructions. I understand I can use it for cleaning the house? What sort of dilution do I need for that? Can I put it in a spray bottle? TIA!

Yes, I think that is it. It's Dr. Brown's something or other.

From Dr. Bronner's website:

How should I use the liquid soap?

For everyday body-washing: Get wet and pour several drops of soap full-strength onto hands-washcloth-loofah. Lather up, scrub down, rinse off, and tingle fresh and clean. For other uses: Dilute from one part soap into 40 parts water for light cleaning, to cutting it in half or using it full strength for heavy-duty grease-cutting jobs.
For laundry: Use 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup for one regular load; adjust as needed depending on the hardness of your water. Adding a dash of baking soda makes it even better.
My liquid soap turned cloudy. What happened, and what should I do to clear it up again?
Our liquid soaps are so concentrated that they are nearly solid. Thus, when the temperature drops to about 50° F, the fatty acids begin to solidify and cloud out. Just put the soap in a warm room, or warm water, and it will clear up at about 70° F. But clear or cloudy, the soap works just the same.
