Tonight I made Ribs, Scalloped Potatoes, and Mac and cheese. Decided to load into the Miele along with plates and other glassware. Pot &Pans cycle with minimal detergent. Let’s see what the Miele can or can’t do...... |

Pretty good for the small amount of detergent and the horrible loading I did. |

That ring around the pyrex and the chunks on the sheet pan shouldn't be there though.
I've gotten very comfortable with my G2020's results, but I did go in and raise the wash temp and added an interim rinse. On pots and pans on a crystal, the chunks shouldn't be there if all three arms were working properly and that ring should be gone if it was hit with enough water that was up to temp. Would detergent really make that much of a difference? I guess I always stuff my machine full and I use Miele tabs. |

1 piece of chocolate sheet cake added mid cycle. Small amount of detergent and express cycle with turbo setting. Jkbff how do I increase temp and add rinse? Also excuse the dirty dishwasher front. |

Email is current. Back half of basket is out. I got the machine for free on Craigslist. The softerner reactivation valve buzzes loudly (I replaced it and still buzzes). So the original owners were throwing it out. |

Latest results just a little bit of cake bits left around and on the glasses, silverware basket, and roof. |

I use Cascade Complete Powder. I also wanted to try with express turbo because I like the short was cycle. This machine has an EXTREMELY long run time on pots and pans or normal wash. |

I'm sending you an email but let me ask this, the 30-45 minutes the turbo option saves you, how much time and additional water is spent/used rewashing and drying the dishes?
I think this generation uses slightly more water than the current 6000 Generation machines, but I know the turbo option in the older units hinders wash performance. That being said, if you used the turbo wash on both sets of pictures, that absolutely explains the wash results. There is a reason for the lengthy times. Any wash-ability or drying complaints I've received from customers have all lead to someone pushing the turbo button. Turbo can't handle burned on or heavily soiled. |

Only used turbo wash and express with that piece of cake. The Corning dish and baking sheet were done using pots and pans without turbo |

I use Finish Quantum tabs for burned or stuck on food. Tabs may give a better result on burned on food than any type of powder. |

I use the built-in water softener and tabs cause a major oversuding. I haven’t had the suds condition with the powder. |

It only buzzes when it’s supposed to operate. I’ve changed it and it still buzzes and I think it also is what causes cavitation |

JKBFF, I can’t thank you enough for the programming instructions. If nothing else I was able to program the dishwasher so I can see the time left. |
