Help! Soda crystals in dishwasher.
19 Answers
Serves me right for rushing about. I have just filled the salt dispenser in the dishwasher with soda crystals by mistake. I can't empty it out as far as I know so does anyone know if it will do any harm or be OK. Obviously I'm going to have to thoroughly rinse everything I get from the dishwasher for a while if I can't get it out.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.@deggers316 - I think what gingejbee and buildersmate were saying was that salt on its own does not soften water, but does so when used with an ion-exchange resin (as found in a dishwasher). Sodium ions in the salt are exchanged for calcium ions in the hard water.
