billytheghillie Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Its all to do with condensation inside the washer. To overcome this problem, get the other half to empty it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmytree Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Crockery stays hotter for longer so dries off, plastic cools down and gets condensation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loriusgarrulus Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Plastics get put in the drainer to air dry and put away later. Have to be desperate for a dish to get the tea towel out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loriusgarrulus Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Its what you do if you haven't got a dog to clean the plates. Alternatively if you have got a dishwasher the dog does the pre-wash cycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedsanity Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 You need to adjust the rinse aid output or put some in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 How about the greater surface tension of plastic retaining the water better than the smoother finish of glassware/china? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Wymbery, Nope. You can change the surface tension with rinse aid, but it doesn't do enough. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
