| Although I typically use distilled malt vinegar when I add it (this is clear; white vinegar as is so easy to buy in huge jugs in the US isn't as common here, but I can get the above at my local grocery), I've used brown malt vinegar on my diapers before to use up the bottle and can't say that I noticed any ill effects. I probably only did this two or three times, given the size of the bottle, and I was only adding some to the rinse cycle (and then rinsing additionally after), not soaking in high concentration, but I figured it was fine because, as Karen said, it's really the acidity that I was going for. |
