I would recommend that you don't... even though dishwasher detergents are less harsh than they once were, aluminum will still get dull and discoloured. I have a beautiful set of Club Aluminum (turquoise, natch) and I won't put them in even one of the short-cycle dishwashers. Hubby put a mint Presto pressure cooker in the Maytag in St-Lib once and that was all it took to mess it up but good! |

Aluminum is easily harmed by alkaline substances, and automatic dw detergent is rather high on pH scale.
Have a set of same but got for free; haven't bothered to use yet so cannot say how well they clean up. Did use another aluminum pot to boil things in with a bit of sodium percarbonate; and insides once pristine now are dull and in some areas darkened. The nice and shiny new tub of my Hoover twin washer was dulled by using vintage powdered Cheer detergent. So that's me for you. |
