Making Dishwasher soap
Dish washing is a big issue!
It is really an issue. If you're going to use a dish washer, your water and electricity bill will swallow "I've tried that my self although water and electricity in my country are not very expensive".
My recommendation is; to wash dishes and glasses using your hands in a kitchen gloves "it's an economical suggestion, believe me this is much cheaper" You can use hot water in a sink with some liquid soap to soak stuff then just wash in a tub or another sink then a quick flush of tap water. That's it. Easy, isn't it :) but if you insist, I'll give you a recipe that will help you saving some money. Ah, You can use a small dishwasher machine, it saves water and power too.
To make dish washer detergent

If you want your glasses to be sparkling bright use citric acid (sugar free lemonade works good too) or white vinegar to rinse.
