Yeah...my family of 7...washing by hand wouldn't be economical. I've used other homemade tablet recipes, and I haven't had bad experiences ..this recipe has a lot going on, so I'm not sure the issue, just keep tweaking until you find your happy place

Re: Homemade Dishwasher pellets I can't wait to make this. I normally use Vinegar in the rinse aid. This sounds so much cheaper then buying some. I already have the ingredients. Thank you!
Re: Homemade Dishwasher pellets Can't wait to try this on my dishes I think I will try it without making the pellets. Maybe good for cleaning sinks too
Re: Homemade Dishwasher pellets this is going to save lots of money and I really like to make everything my self. Love this site
Re: Homemade Dishwasher pellets I made a powder form but used lemon sugar free cool aid instead of lemon juice, that way the powder stays unclumped if you just want the powder form.
Re: Homemade Dishwasher pellets I can't wait to make these! I'm tired of paying around $2.98 - $3 something for only 20 tablets. Thanks so much for the recipe mix!
i was so excited to use this detergent after i had such great success with the Super Laundry Sauce. Well, long story short, it left a gross cloudy film all over all of my dishes, scratched my glasses, plates, and even my plastic tupperware, and couldn't even cut through bacon grease. I was using lemon juice in the rinse aid dispenser (which was pointless, because it didn't dispense enough at one time to be of any use). The only time I used it and could honestly be like "wow this works!" was when I added a cup of vinegar directly in the bottom of my machine in the wash cyle, and then stopped the washer and added another full cup in the rinse cycle. Since I usually run my dishwasher at night when we go to bed, obviously, that would be impractical for me. Fortunately I found a great deal on Finish powerball tabs on Amazon.... (it should be noted that i have VERY hard water)
