Where do you put a dishwasher capsule? (and other handy tips!)
It’s a common question for first-time users - or perhaps you’re switching from a powder to a high-performance dishwasher capsule like Bosisto's new Supreme+ Dishwasher Capsules.
To get the best results, it’s essential to place the capsule in the correct spot—and follow a few other handy dishwasher tips for maximum cleaning power.
Where to Put the Dishwasher Capsule
Dishwasher capsules are designed to dissolve in water and release their cleaning agents at the perfect time in your dishwasher cycle. Place the capsule in the main detergent compartment of your dishwasher.
This compartment is usually located on the inside of the dishwasher door. It will have a latch or cover you can open, making it easy to pop in your capsule and close the compartment securely. Once you start the cycle, the dishwasher automatically opens this compartment at the right moment to let the capsule do its work.
What if my Capsule won’t fit?
Occasionally certain dishwasher models aren’t compatible with some capsules or don’t have a drawer. In this case, when using our Bosisto’s Supreme+ Dishwasher Capsules, we recommend putting them in an empty compartment of your cutlery basket.
Why Choose Bosisto's Supreme+ Dishwasher Capsules?

Dishwasher Cheat Code – More Handy Tips!
Now you know where to put a dishwasher capsule, here are some more handy tips to get the best performance from your dishwasher and keep it running smoothly!
1. Load Dishes Properly
Make sure your dishes aren’t stacked too closely together. Place them ‘dirty side down’ and leave enough space for water and detergent to reach each item. Place larger items, like pots and pans, on the bottom rack, and leave smaller items or delicate glassware on the top. Proper loading prevents blocking the spray arms, which can affect cleaning.
2. Run Hot Water Before Starting
If your dishwasher is connected to a distant hot water source, run the sink tap until the water is hot before starting the dishwasher. This helps your dishwasher begin its cycle with hot water, making it easier to dissolve the capsule and remove tough grease from dishes.
3. Use the Right Cycle
For heavily soiled dishes, use a more intensive cycle. Lightly soiled items can be cleaned with an eco or quick wash.
Bosisto's Supreme+ Dishwasher Capsules are versatile enough to work with any cycle, but matching your cycle with the load can save energy and extend the life of your machine.
4. Keep the Filter Clean
Regularly check and clean the filter at the bottom of your dishwasher to ensure food particles and debris don’t affect the dishwasher’s performance. You’d be surprised how filthy your filters get! A clean filter helps water circulate more effectively, improving cleaning and preventing nasty odours.
5. Choose a High-Quality Capsule
A good capsule, like Bosisto's Supreme+ Dishwasher Capsules, makes a noticeable difference in cleaning power. Thanks to their advanced formula, they offer excellent results – even on delicate glassware - with no pre-rinsing needed.
Now you’re all set! By using the right product, knowing where to put the dishwasher capsule, loading correctly, and choosing the best settings, you’ll get the most out of your dishwasher and keep your dishes spotlessly clean.
