  1. Thank you so much for this recipe. I’m THRILLED with the results!

    All items in the dishwasher come out dryer than they did with commercial rinse aids and without water marks. Glasses are sparkling clean and cutlery very shiny.

    As an added bonus much cheaper over time.

  2. I have not tried it yet but plan on doing so after my Cascade rinse aid runs out. I am.a.bit surprised by your recommendations for storage, I would think one could easily double the batch as I see nothing in the recipe that would warrant a short shelf life?

    • Let us know how you find it compares to your commercial brand. I mention in the notes to “store it in a glass jar (I keep any extra in a dark cupboard, but the fridge will help extend shelf life further)”. Up to you if you double it and how you choose to store it.

    • I can safely say I have absolutely no idea as I haven’t tried it! If this DIY recipe is something you think you’ll make often (and it’s great so I hope so!), then a cheap bottle of vodka may be worth the investment. Save the tequila for shots and cocktails 😜

  3. Oh I’m definitely adding this to my list of DIY. I’ve recently bought your book so working my way through slowly ☺️ 🙏

  4. I must try this! I use low tox dishwasher tablets which I’m generally happy with, but could use a bit of extra help with water marks. This is crazy easy to make! Thank you!

    (I think I accidentally replied to a comment instead of creating my own…. whoops!)

    • Hi Gail, I’m not sure which measurements you’re after – it’s in the recipe, 70g each of citric acid, water and alcohol. I always use grams to measure as it’s the most consistent. Happy making – great recipe this one!

      • I use isopropyl alcohol and it works fine. The ascorbic acid seems to dissolve in hot water and doesn’t seem to need boiling water but maybe my Vit C power is different. I use food grade powder, which may dissolve more easily. This is a great recipe for rince aid and I’ve been using it now for a couple of months and we have very hard water but no mineral deposits on the dishes. Thanks!
