Nice write-up by Jeff.
Things are getting out of hand. It’s time for a change. Only buy equipment with local access.
Forget rinse aid. Get one of those ramekins you get with some desserts, put in some vinegar and put the dish among the plates at the bottom. Sparklyyyyy.
(I had a Bosch too, now have a Miele)
Isnt this really tough on the dishwasher internals? Corrosively so? Thats why I veered away from this way thus far.
The water is really hard where I live, the limescale pretty much neutralises the vinegar. And a lot of rinse aid is citric acid or vinegar anyway!
Sick, so is my water. I love my well but wow the minerals are insane. Going to steal this tip and use it from now on, thanks!
You could also just pour that into the rinse aid dispenser…
Which didn’t work, hence the ramekin.
