S/O those who use vinegar with CDs

Do you put some in the prewash rinse AND the final rinse?  Just one or the other?

I'm trying to figure out if it makes sense to do both. currently I just do the prewash rinse.   I have done the overnight soak in vinegar too but her nighttime diapers still have a little stink to them.  I'm thinking that's probably just normal.  At least they don't stink until they're REALLY wet now.  It used to be they'd be stinking halfway through the night.

    I do both -- quite a bit in the prewash -- but I'm having a few stinky night diapers, too, so I may not be the one to take advice from.

    I used to do it in the final rinse, and that was golden.  Then I switched it to the first rinse, and I don't know if it's because of that, but I did get some stink.  Now, we're doing it both rinses.  We've been having issues in general lately with ammonia, though, and have been trying many new things, plus, we had to replace our washer in the midst of it all, so I"m just kind of baffled in general at this point.

    I do just in the prewash.

    I know a lot of people don't like using it... and I don't use it all that often...but- 

    Tide powder.  When I get some stink, I do a few loads with Tide and the stink is gone.  Then I go back to my regular CD detergent.  Like I said, I don't have to use it often (probably every 2-3 months), but it seriously has saved my sanity with stink issues - both ammonia stink and dirty stink.
