Experts agree, pre-rinsing makes them come out dirtier (europe.pub)

Apparently pre-rinsing confuses the dishwasher or something. Not doing it leaves me with residue all over the other dishes though ๐Ÿคท

Star wars Anakin and Padme meme, with a dishwasher poorly GIMPed onto Anakin's face. Dishwasher Anakin: Save water, no need to rinse your dishes first. Padme: And they will come out clean, right? Anakin dishwasher: ... Padme: And they will come out clean, right?

We have 230VAC (on all outlets) instead of your guys' puny 120V, so our dishwashers aren't handicapped out of the box and can heat their own water properly. I feel like having to run the tap before doing dishes is an L for the US, not Germany/Europe?

    In our defense we were very early to having one and everyone was afraid of electricity at the time

    I was gonna say in our defence most of us can't be trusted with high voltage

    Electricity in the usa is not weaker than Europe. Since the voltage is half as high, it just takes double the current to do the same work. A heater running 220v at 5 amps and a heater running 110v 10 amps will work exactly the same.

    Wat? We have 230v also. We have both 120v and 220/240.
