Can you use Essential Oils with Dishwashing Tablets?Updated 6 hours ago

TL;DR: You can add a light fragrance to your dishwasher cycle by placing 1-2 drops of a Koh essential oil on top of your dishwasher tablet. Do not pour oil directly into the dispenser or machine.

How to do it

1. Load your dishwasher as normal and place the tablet in the detergent compartment.
2. Add 1-2 drops of your chosen Koh essential oil directly onto the top surface of the tablet.
3. Close the compartment. Do not pour oil into the dispenser or directly into the machine.
4. Run the cycle and enjoy a subtle scent.

Tip: Avoid overdoing it. More drops increase the risk of residue.

Safety & Best Practice

• Start small: Try 1-2 drops for one cycle first.
• Never pour oil directly into the dispenser, spray arms, or onto seals.
• Avoid heavy or frequent use: Large amounts may leave residue on glassware or cutlery.
• Be cautious with delicate items: Remove fragile glassware if unsure.
• Store oils safely away from children and pets.

Will it affect cleaning?

Used sparingly (1-2 drops), essential oils should not affect cleaning performance. If you notice residue, streaking, or unwanted scent, reduce the amount or discontinue use.

Can I use any essential oil?

For best results and compatibility, we recommend using Koh essential oils only.
