No Dishwasher Soap?

[japanmaple]

I have hard water and the homemade soap/7th generation are making the dishes really gross! They leave brown film on everything. My dishwasher has a sanitize button (that I use). Can I just use the sanitize wash and not use soap? People use boiling water to sanitize/clean right? I hate to have to switch back to reg soap. Thanks

Yes you could use just the sanitize feature as long as the food comes off and it isn't some huge drain on your power usage.

I would switch to soap nuts or stick with you detergent and from time to time would use a regular detergent (may be once every two weeks?), if the hot water is not enough.
