Cloth Diapering

What does your rinse cycle look like?

I have an older, really basic top loader. To do a rinse I turn the knob to the middle of the cycle where it says rinse and start it there.

The washer fills, sits for about two minutes, then drains and spins.

This never seemed sufficient to me, so I have always done a light wash instead so there is at least some agitation.

But now it occurs to me that maybe that's what all rinse cycles look like? Am I overdoing it with the light wash, or does your rinse involve more than mine?

Re: What does your rinse cycle look like?

  • My "rinse" cycle is the same as yours, but I've always done a light wash like you. If I'm in a hurry, I'll sometimes just use the rinse, but it makes me feel better to have a little agitation.

  • Mine is a top loader. It fills, sits for a minute or two then agitates for maybe 3-5 minutes before spinning out,

    Also, even with my rinse agitating, I do a quick wash instead of a prerinse. I think the longer agitation helps.
