Powdery residue
Is anyone else finding dishes coming out of their dishwasher with a powdery residue?
I washed them twice, no powder second time and they came out worse.
I put a dishwasher cleaner through 3 weeks ago.

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
