What Is Dishwasher Safe Flatware
What is actually dishwasher safe flatware? Today, there are many different types and anyone who wants to buy new flatware should pay attention to a few things ...because dishwasher-safe can differ from another flatware that claims to be dishwasher-safe as well.
Â
How do I Recognize Dishwasher Safe Flatware?
The manufacturer can designate the product as dishwasher-safe on the basis of its own tests. A standardized test is often carried out for this purpose. However, this is not binding.
Flatware is only truly dishwasher-safe if it has been tested on the basis of local and international standards and if there is also a corresponding certification for it.
If a flatware has been deemed dishwasher safe, it will have a symbol indicating that feature. The design of the symbol can differ from region to region but you can find it either directly on the flatware or on the packaging.
Â
Which Materials Can Be Put In The Dishwasher?
If the flatware is made of aluminum, it is made of non-alloyed aluminum. This is not dishwasher safe flatware, because it would be irreversibly damaged.
Aluminum reacts to alkali and to acid. As a test also shows, it tends to surface changes. If the pots or pans are made of aluminum, you should ask the manufacturer whether they are compatible with the dishwasher.
If flatware is made of stainless steel, it can usually be washed in the dishwasher because the nickel or chrome alloy prevents it from rusting.
Silver flatware can also be put in the dishwasher. Just make sure that it does not come into contact with stainless steel flatware during the wash cycle. Why? Unsightly stains could form or it could tarnish.
However, caution is advised with very old silver flatware!
If flatware consists of several materials, such as handles made of plastic or wood, again you should ask the manufacturer first in case of doubt.
Dishwasher-safe flatware made of stainless steel is the most purchased today. This is largely due to the fact that they are very easy to clean.
Â
Tips For Cleaning In The Dishwasher
However, it can always happen that forks, spoons or knives lose their former shine. However, this can, with little effort, be recovered.
Once the washing cycle in the dishwasher is complete, the machine is opened to allow the water vapor that has formed to escape. A towel is then placed in the machine. This absorbs the condensation. In this way, ugly marks on dishes and flatware can be prevented.
Very important: do not clean with abrasive cleaners or scouring powder, not even for dishwasher-safe flatware.
Another good way to clean flatware is baking soda and aluminum foil. To do this, place a piece of aluminum foil in a bowl and place the flatware on it. Now sprinkle it with baking soda and pour hot water over it.
The flatware should be completely covered with the soda and water. If the flatware lies in this solution for some time, it will be freed from any stains. Discoloration can be rubbed off effortlessly with a light cloth.
