QuilotoaI tried the Canadian-made etee concentrated dishwasher powder. I recommend it. Got the dishes cleaner than pods.
And powder lets you customize the amount depending on the dirtyness of the current load being washed. You can also throw some in on the prewash cycle if desired
Technology connections has a video about why powder is better as well as several other dishwasher deep dives on his channel.
I was right about dishwasher pods, and now I can prove it
I use the cheapest dishwasher soap I can find and ever since I followed Alec’s recommendation to run the hot water tap until it flows hot before turning on the dishwasher I’ve had perfectly clean dishes every single time.
I like diy’ng my dish detergent but I currently have some pods of some sort, but the powder works so much better.
