I have used several kinds of soap in mine depending on availability, Right now we are using Zote because I cannot find Fels around here. It is (like so many things) going up in price. :(

> I've never used zote, but I do substitute Octagon for Fels Naptha. Sometimes I use all Octagon, sometimes I mix it half and half. I see no reason why you can't substitute. Some people use Ivory Soap. I think it is just a matter of choice. Recipes for laundry soap in the book I mentioned over the weekend uses liquid castile soap or a pure bar soap.
