Sadly it looks like they added a filter to it to only accept whitelisted ingredients. For an example, it doesn't like ingredients like alcohol, dish soap, vasoline, sulfuric acid, wine, flour, potassium chlorate, ramen, potassium nitrate or beer.

I get the reasoning for excluding wine and beer, but flour?

Idk, for some reason it didn't like flour. I might have made a typo on that one though.

Maybe try specific types of flour? Bread flour, pastry flour, all purpose flour, etc ...
