We’re having ammonia issues again.  Not but a few weeks after the last time.  However – this time, I’m positive that I did everything right. I’ve been pre-rinsing all the diapers in a 30 minute cold rinse + spin cycle. I’ve been using a measuring spoon to measure the exact detergent. Only using the diapering detergent.
