How to use Liquid Castile Soap As Laundry Detergent

Step 1:

Put the soiled laundry into the washing machine and fill the washing tub with water.

Step 2:

Add the correct amount of liquid castile soap, depending upon the type of washing machine you have. For lightly-soiled loads, use less soap. And, for heavily soiled loads, use the maximum amount of soap recommended for your type of machine.

• HE (high-efficiency machine): ¼ – ½ cup of liquid Castile for a large load.
• Non-HE machine: ½ – 1 whole cup of liquid Castile for a large load.

Optional Step 3:

For extra whitening and deodorizing power, add ¼ cup of baking soda for HE machines and ½ cup of baking soda for non-HE machines.

Optional Step 4:

If you have hard water, the minerals naturally present in your water can react with castile soap. This can make it more difficult to rinse fully. Plus, it may potentially leave some soap residue behind on your fabrics.

To combat this, add ½ – 1 cup of white vinegar to your machine’s fabric softener compartment. This way it will dispense in the rinse cycle. If your machine does not have a fabric softener compartment, just add the white vinegar by hand once you hear your machine switch to the rinse cycle.

The addition of white vinegar is especially helpful when washing bedding, or similar heavy fabrics that may accumulate dust, dander, or other common household particulates. For those especially sensitive to allergens, such as asthmatics, make sure to use hot water for your wash and rinse cycles. Follow this up with high heat when drying, if possible.

Tips:

Liquid castile soap is also an excellent stain pre-treatment and fabric spot cleaner!

• For smaller, tough stains like tomato, grass, or oil-based stains – simply work full-strength liquid castile soap directly into the stain using your fingers, a washcloth, or a brush.
• For larger, less-concentrated stains, combine a small amount of liquid castile soap with filtered water in a spray bottle. Then, use it to saturate the desired area before washing.
• Allow your stain pre-treatment to sit for about thirty minutes. However, avoid allowing the treated area to dry fully before laundering as usual.
