I was so glad to see you leave this tip. I've been making my own laundry soap for a few months now and I LOVE it. I use the powder form and leave a 1/8 c. scoop in the container and that is all that I use. It last forever and there is not a residue of soap left in the clothes. I use Zote and Ivory (t-shirts & delicates) for the shreded soap, and I do that in my food processor. After I mix the grated soap, borax, & soda, I put it back into the food processor and blend it into a fine powder. We found the zote (pink) in the hand soap aisle. The Fels can be found in the Spanish aisle. Sometimes Ace Hardware will sell it as well. I also have this posted on my blog.

kama,
No, I do not have an HE washer. I have heard that you can use this detergent in place of the HE soap, because it is very low sudsing. Obviously I do not know from expirience, but I know a lot of people have tried it.
