Has anybody washed these? Just wanted to make sure there was no dye added to these (bought a diff brand that made the water turn black)

I first would like to state that Organic Traditions is a reputable company, that being said I usually just use these straight out of the bag, I store mine in the refrigerator to protect the delicate oil in them. I do not was my seeds and I have not sprouted these as of yet.

I usually don't wash these before I eat them but I did put some in a bowl of water for a test. The water did get a clear dark purple-ish tint. Did not smell anything funny and the dry seed has a wide variation of color from brown to black (mostly black) which looks like nature made them. I imagine if they are dyed, they should all be black. I will and did buy this brand again.

I didn't " wash " the ones we use, but I kinda rinse every often and that didn't happen certainty. Maybe the warm, too warm water was the problem, guessing here, but I don't see a problem ( I know not the issue ) working with the white material alone.

For an official answer, I would see their website. After owning mine for a while, I've hand washed with a very gentle detergent with no brighteners or additives. They dry pretty darn quick because they don't really get "wet". Like a tarp with water on it really.

I have been using these back to back since late July, with several washes in between and that has never happen to me. I wash them with a hot cycle meant for heavy cotton and then rinse a second time. I have never used a dryer on them, that could be why yours are balling up. I just hang dry for a few hours.

mine has no smell to them. I throw them in the wash with my whites and they come out nice and clean. I think I may have bought the wrong kind though. The last ones I had had a foam backing to them and these don't. If anyone knows which ones i'm talking about please let me know so I can buy the right ones.

Yes I did, and will never do it again. Eventually after about 10 washes the navy dye I used faded from the machine. I complained to dylon and they sent me two items to get the colour from a wash I run after using the dye and looked very grubby. It did help but I did lose some items because they were really dull in colour. Just to let you know I would never use it again in any washing machine

Mine have been washed MANY times. They are softer, no issues. I put them in the washer and dryer.

I found them to be fine after washing. I washed them with a regular load of laundry (front load) with the same methods and detergents regularly used. Nothing feels as good as when you first get them, but I was definitely satisfied with the product following the washing. Good Luck. Leon

I use these along with vinegar instead of jet dry. The only time we had any issues it was discovered that there was no salt in the water softener- check there if you have any problems. I've subscribed these they work so well!

Yes they wash really well I just put them in the washer with my other cleaning towels I use oxyclean and detergent but no softener. I haven't had it long enough to show any wear. I bought extra pad when I purchased the machine so I always have a clean pad. Jo Ann

I wash in hot water (no bleach, just Tide) and dry thoroughly and have not had any noticeable shrinkage. GREAT stain release! These are not designer kitchen towels, they're the WORKHORSE of commercial kitchens and should be he same in yours.

I just wash in cold water. They do fine. I put in dryer for just a little bit.

Did you run them thru the dishwasher? Can't do that, wash them with a soapy scrub pad that will take the excess tarnish off but handels will remain discolored. Sorry

I've washed mine with my daughters clothes and they seem to be fine. I wash on delicate cycle. I've washed a few times and they are still in good condition.

I don't have a water softener and I haven't had any problems with mine turning white. They've actually held up really well.

We wash them by hand and have had no problem with fading or discoloring. Hope this helps you. We love them.

I washed them in one group with nothing else for the first wash and the yellow darkened as if the blue, green and red bled. But all of the other colors look great. I have since washed the bibs multiple times with other items and have not had any bleeding. I separate whites, lights and darks when I wash but don't do a specific load for reds.
