Fabric softener
As with other laundry products dosage is dependent upon many factors.
However with FS you certainly can and often should use less than recommended dosage.
For instance if all one is wanting is a bit of softness and a bit of scent, then smaller amounts of the stuff will do.
Generally yes, many do find that when using liquid or gel detergents FS is not necessary. One reason for this is that neither contain the harsh alkaline substances found in powders (soda, silicates, etc...) that often leave washing feeling harsh.
To promote dilution of FS one can mix with hot or very warm water either before pouring into machine (before start of rinse, but after spin), or maybe dilute in dispenser.
Seem to recall the SQ washers a local laundromat sends hot water through FS dispense, but cold water down the other side. This results in mostly a cold rinse, but ensures FS is better diluted I shouldn't wonder.
