| 782410 | 2009-06-15 06:39:00 | It's a good habit to get into to rinse the dishes straight after a meal. It saves power by only having to use the econo-mode on the machine, if it has one. Likewise, domestic DWs are not as effective as commercial models so we rinse all the crap off plates and cutlery first. Even doing that, it is amazing what incubates and grows under the bottom plate in our dishdrawer. Mrs T or one of the Teen T's cook, and I clean up afterwards. We do a 28 minute econo wash and everything comes out sparkling. Our daughter is a little lazier and sometimes puts stuff in unrinsed, which even on an extended wash comes out with food particles or grease on some items. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 782415 | 2009-06-15 06:58:00 | I wash my dishes (in the sink) when I run out of clean ones before I have dinner. I live alone and I'm always busy ! (so I can do that) |

| 782416 | 2009-06-15 07:01:00 | We rinse some of our dishes before they go in the dishwasher. Less dirty dishes simply go straight in. :D Sounds like what we do. Even more important is not to overfill the dishwasher ! Misty :) :) |

| 782417 | 2009-06-15 07:08:00 | But an interesting point raised in that closed (but still legible) thread, are there members of this forum who would go down the wrong side of the supermarket aisle? Surely not! | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 782418 | 2009-06-15 07:46:00 | Straight in to the dishwasher, never had a problem although we clean out the filter ever couple of weeks. Easier than rinsing or washing dishes. We have a sterilizer at work for dishes and cups, and they must be washed before they go in. |

| 782419 | 2009-06-15 08:45:00 | Straight in to the dishwasher, never had a problem although we clean out the filter ever couple of weeks . Easier than rinsing or washing dishes . We have a sterilizer at work for dishes and cups, and they must be washed before they go in . A sane voice in the wilderness! :thumbs: My point, exactly . We have never had a problem either . As porkster does, we also clean out the filter every two weeks or so . Much easier than rinsing or washing - after all, that is why we bought a dishwasher so we did not have to wash the dishes, and so we don't . Sounds sensible to me . And, of course, a steriliser at work is a different story all together . When you wash dishes in a public or semi-public place you are supposed to sterilise . Makes sense . |
