How Much Powder to Put in the Washing Machine: A Rule Everyone Should Know
The question of how much washing powder to add during washing often becomes relevant even for experienced housewives.
If you add too little detergent, your clothes may remain dirty. If you add too little, soap stains may remain.
Let's find out once and for all how to do laundry correctly.
Let's decide on the dosage
Despite the divisions on the measuring cup and the recommendations of the washing powder manufacturer itself, you should focus on the dry weight of the items you are going to wash.
In fact, the calculation formula is extremely simple and easy to remember. For each kilogram of dry laundry, you need to use one tablespoon of the product.
That is, for 6 kilograms of things you will need 6 spoons of detergent.
But there are some nuances here too. If you pour the powder directly into the drum, then the dosage should be reduced slightly.
And if you have to wash heavily soiled items and you will pour the product into the compartment, then you can increase the dosage to two spoons. The same dosage is recommended if you plan to wash in hard water.
