Does powder detergent rinse better than liquid?

I've been using Allen's for our CD's (mostly BG's and Fuzzi Bunz) and I have to do at least an extra 2 cold rinses on the highest water setting after the hot wash to get all of the suds out.  I'm using less than a half ounce per load (top loader, non-HE machine).  Would a powder detergent (Planet or something similar) be any better?  TIA!

    I would say no.

    Are you doing warm rinses?

    Do you have hard water? ?Liquid is actually supposed to be better for hard water.?

    I think we do have hard water.  Dumb question, but what can I do about that?  Should I be using warm rinses?  My current routine is cold rinse - hot wash - cold rinse - cold rinse.
