Cleaning microfibre cloths

I was wondering what to clean microfiber cloths with? I know that you should not use detergent - but I was wondering if you just put them in the machine with water - or if you add anything to the washing machine water - if so, what?

Does any particular brand work better than others?

I use non bio wash capsules at about 40-50 degrees depending how dirty, occasionally with white vinegar in the fabric softer drawer.

Only special precautions I've ever been told to take it don't use fabric softer, don't boil wash and don't use washing powder, use liquid or capsules.

I fill the sink with hot water and put a squirt of Fairy Liquid, then slosh em round a bit and then leave them ten minutes. If they are really stained, i also add a squirt of Stardrops.

They always end up clean again, so i rinse them in plain water and let them dry over the radiator.

Haven't seen any issues with this and they are still soft and fluffy after many uses.
