How much Detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on
the water hardness. Water hardness is
measured in grains per gallon. Using too little
detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard
water filming or spotting. Using too much
detergent in soft water can cause permanent
etching on glassware. Your local water
company, water softener company or county
extension agent can tell you the water
hardness in your area.
More detergent may be needed if the
phosphorus content is 8.7% or less.
The phosphorus content is shown on the
detergent label.
