You’ve probably heard that dishes should be rinsed before putting them in the dishwasher so that they come out perfectly clean. You probably even do it daily because it is a widespread myth.

At El Comprador de La Vanguardia we will dismantle this false belief that has haunted us for many years and that does not provide any benefit even for the cleaning of dishes and, much less, for energy consumption. No more rinsing!

Pre-rinsing dishes uses a considerable amount of water. Furthermore, if we do it with hot water, it also involves additional energy expenditure to heat it.

Letting the dishwasher do all the cleaning work will help us save resources and reduce energy costs in our home.

In fact, the Bosch brand ensures that one of its 9.5 liter dishwashers at full capacity, compared to manually washing the same amount of dishes by hand, means impressive water savings: up to 30.5 liters per cycle.

Dishwasher detergents sold today are designed to remove grease, food residue, and stains efficiently, even when dishes are not prewashed.

In fact, in some cases, food residue on dishes can help dishwasher detergents work better because they have something to react with and remove. Therefore, thoroughly rinsing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher may not result in optimal cleaning.

Most modern dishwashers are equipped with sensors and washing programs that automatically adapt to the dirt and number of dishes in each cycle. Rinsing dishes before loading them could interfere with the dishwasher’s ability to detect the amount of soil and adjust the cycle accordingly.

The Bosch brand is one of the pioneers in the manufacture of efficient dishwashers. Models that save up to 50% in energy and water consumption. Therefore, we encourage you to get one and thus contribute to responsible consumption.

In addition, their models are equipped with the latest technological advances to adapt to our needs. For example, we can choose between short or intensive programs, choose the SpeedPerfect that reduces the washing cycle time by up to 65%, or the Hygiene Plus function for extra cleaning.

Plus, you’ll find additional features for your dishwasher in the HomeConnect app, and you can control it with voice commands if it has a smart speaker.

This Bosch series 6 dishwasher is the brand’s most efficient model. It has a rating of A, the class with the lowest energy consumption.

Cleaning consumes little, but drying also, because its PerfectDry technology guarantees perfect drying with less energy consumption thanks to zeolites. It is a natural mineral that absorbs moisture and at the same time gives off heat.

In addition, it has an automatic program that adjusts the temperature and degree of water pressure depending on the dirt detected on the dishes.

As if that were not enough, it is a smart model. They can be controlled and operated remotely using a mobile device or with your voice. Choose a program or change the lighting conveniently from the Home Connect app, wherever you are.

This Bosch Series 8 dishwasher combines PerfectDry technology for optimal drying, even of plastics, with the AquaStop anti-leak protection system. A ‘top’ range model that adapts to the needs of each washing cycle and makes things very easy for us.

It is equipped with Home Connect, allowing remote control via the app. Its efficient EcoSilence motor guarantees silent and efficient operation. In addition, it has an intelligent program to adapt the washing process.

With its anti-fingerprint stainless steel and 14-service capacity, this dishwasher is the perfect combination of style, functionality and Class A energy efficiency.

If what we are looking for is a good dishwasher that has many different washing programs and that we can program its ignition, we should choose this 60cm wide Series 4.

This model can be controlled remotely or with your voice thanks to its Home Connect technology. It is a very sustainable option thanks to ActiveWater technology, which offers respectful consumption of water and energy, always guaranteeing excellent cleaning results. Drying is also efficient with the automatic opening of the door after completing the selected cycle.

Another very interesting aspect is the automatic program, which adapts the temperature range and water pressure depending on the degree of dirt detected, guaranteeing the best washing and care results for the dishes.
