I have an old washing machine so I just put it where the powder would usually go, ie in the dispenser on top where the water pours into.

When I make up a bottle, I put 50/50 powder and cold water. The eco scoop is equal to a half surf/persil scoop so once made up with water, a persil scoop = 1 full load. One thing I learnt though is to never have the bottle more than 1/2 full or it becomes a mini explosive device ]]> Thu, 19 Jul 2007 19:15:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=183232&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#183232 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=183215&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#183215 Author: Faraway

We chucked our box out so looked on one in supermarket but couldn't find where it said to dissolve it - we just put the scoop down centre of washing machine so its not directly on clothes. Where do you put it when its in a liquid form-in the fabric softner dispenser?]]> Thu, 19 Jul 2007 19:00:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=183215&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#183215 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=183133&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#183133 Author: jack_&_charli

hmmmmmm maybe that's why my 2 have rashy bums....i use persil sensitive, half scoop.
i have some sample ecostore sachets so might give it a go.
great idea about dissolving it in a bottle first teresa how much would you use for a load of nappies and inserts?]]> Thu, 19 Jul 2007 16:55:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=183133&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#183133 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=182639&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#182639 Author: Bel

I have just checked my pack (haven't even used it yet) and it just says "Don't put powder directly onto clothes", so I guess you could have to dissolve it first?
My free sample that I got in the ReachMe pack says on the back "Always dissolve powder before adding clothes"

Guess I better try and see what happens...]]> Wed, 18 Jul 2007 20:33:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=182639&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#182639 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=182635&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#182635 Author: NikkiB

I've just brought some ecostore, but I can't see where they say you should dissolve it first?]]> Wed, 18 Jul 2007 20:27:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=182635&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#182635 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=176520&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#176520 Author: Kellz

youre meant to dissolve it first???? I havent read the instructions. I love it too. I used it for a while and then thought "nah I dont need this" and went back to something else. I hated it and felt I was using SOOOOO much powder and I think it made me itchy. I bought more ecostore as I wanted to wash some baby things and I am happy again!]]> Tue, 10 Jul 2007 14:10:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=176501&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#176501 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=176437&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#176437 Author: busymum

I am really impressed with this stuff. The first time I tried it, I thought it sucked, but after I heard something and re-read the instructions (and yes they do say to dissolve the powder first), I now have a heap made up in an old milk bottle in the laundry and have started using it on my FB. It's great! Just 3 washes later and I've noticed a huge difference in the lingering odors from the nappy inserts (I had already changed to Persil, done a couple of strips, done hot washes... and my DH was complaining about the smell and nothing changing ).

So big ups to ecostore washing powder! ]]> Tue, 10 Jul 2007 13:04:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8975&PID=176437&title=ecostore-powder-i-love-it#176437
