Detergent Too Sudsy

RE: Detergent Too Sudsy By MCW (1009) Profile Blog! Contact One of our members just posted this the other day: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf67454146.tip.html As soon as I use up all my liquid laundry detergent, I plan on making a batch of this myself. I have to agree with you, I'm getting sick and tired of having suds in my rinse cycle. And I've also cut way down on the amount of detergent.

Read your label. If too many suds for whatever reason, try using a bit less soap. You need full amount given if it is a load of muddy jeans for example. But if something lighter or thinner, use less. I am supposed to use a capful of brand I use, I use half a cap. Still gets clean. Try it, can't hurt.

Cindy Kalkaska, MI Posted on 06/06/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Detergent Too Sudsy By hedera (168) Contact Add a 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle water. This should do the trick. I also read (cant remember what magazine) that you can double your liquid detergents usage by only using 1/2 the recommended amount per load. Apparently you get just as clean a wash, and twice the mileage out of the detergent. To be honest, I only ever use about 1/2 the recommended amount, due to over sudsing. Good Luck Posted on 06/06/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Detergent Too Sudsy By Honto (41) Contact Buy the washing liquid that is for front-loading machines. They are low-suds. I use it in my twin-tub machine, and it's great. Regards, Leah from Down Under.

Run the machine with just water after to remove the softener. It is not good to use. Posted on 06/05/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Detergent Too Sudsy By Robyn Fed (444) Profile Blog! Contact I use Ivory dishwashing soap or Dove dishwashing soap or Dawn dishwashing soap, about four small squirts, because I don't like detergent. I used to do handwashing in it and just moved that habit over to the washing machine....LOL! It works, is better for my hands, and the clothes smell fresh. Dawn is good for really nasty clothes. I like dawn but I rarely use it in the wash. Sometimes I will put 1/6 of a cap of fabric softener in the wash water with the soap and it comes out like perfumed clothes. I don't like fabric softener staying on my clothes either. Robyn Posted on 06/04/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Detergent Too Sudsy By MCW (1009) Profile Blog! Contact When we bought our washer and dryer we were instructed to use very little detergent. I start the washer, add 1 scoop of generic brand oxygen cleaner. Then I add the dirty clothes and and while they are agitating, I slowly pour in a small amount of liquid detergent and you can tell if you have enough suds.

I don't have this problem as I live in a hard water area. You might try using a powdered detergent. I think they create less suds. Posted on 06/04/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse
