Cloth nappies not coming up clean

Well ive been using cloth nappies for around 6 months now, and recently ive notice they are not coming out of the wash smellling clean. I have tried strip washing with dish washer tablets but this doesnt seem to have helps. I havent changed washing powder or anything. Im not sure if im putting to much or too little wash powder in or if its something else someone please help.

What is your wash routine and what powder are you using??? x

I do a rinse 1st to get them wet ect and to rise away most of the poo, then i will put them on a wash with the powder in and then after this do another 2 rinse cycles. I am using non bio powder the same as we wash our clothes ect it

We only use half the amount of powder in nappy washes compared to clothes.How hard/soft is your water?

~Have you done a maintenance wash on your machine recently? Bio is better for cleaning nappies as well, i always used Ariel or Fairy or for a bit of softness Bold 2in1 and washed at 60 most of the time.

Is it a cold rinse you are doing first x

whats a matinence wash?
and will look into getting bio powder just have to be careful as LO gets ezczmsa

The best way to wash nappies is to do a cold wash first, then either a 40 or 60 degree wash with extra rinse afterwards. Use anything from a teaspoon to a half dose of bio washing powder depending on your water hardness (teaspoon for very soft water, half dose for very hard).

I'd do a maintenance wash on your machine (empty machine, 90 degree wash with a full dose of bio powder) then do another strip wash on the nappies. Wash them on cold with a full dose of bio powder. Then do a 60 degree wash with no powder & do 3 or 4 extra rinses afterwards.

My little one has eczema & I just do an extra rinse on her clothes & nappies & it doesn't afffect the eczema.

yes its cold rinse i do
i do matinence wash every 1-2 months. will try the biological powder and extra rinse next time.
is there way to find water hardness as dont know ouyrs

Have a look inside your kettle, is there limescale? If not you're water is soft.

Do another maintenance wash & do another strip wash & see if that helps. It's bold 2 in 1 (the ordinary one not infusions or whatever it is called) that we use & it's great for nappies. Buy a small box & give it a try.
