How Much Detergent to Use?
To prevent detergent build-up, start with 1/4 to 1/2 of the recommended amount. • If the diapers smell of pee after the wash, do an extra rinse and check if the smell disappears. On the next laundry day, use slightly more detergent. • If the diapers smell of detergent or feels soapy after the wash, also do extra rinses until the smell disappears and the soapy sensation disappears. In future, use slightly less detergent. Clean diapers should smell of nothing. Within a few days, you’d be able to find the optimal amount.
