• (a) a sealed water soluble container;
• and
• (b) an institutional multiple use amount of greater than 200 grams of a pelletized water soluble or dispersible functional composition contained within said water soluble container;
• wherein each pellet has a mass of about to 2 to 30 grams, said water soluble container fits within said dispenser, and said pelletized functional composition comprises:
• (i) about 10-70 wt-% of a sequestering agent;
• (ii) about 10-70 wt-% of an alkali metal silicate;
• and
• (iii) about 0.1-10 wt-% of a bleaching source.
