Hi Andrea,

I have a question about what you wrote in one of your posts: "Run a cupful of kefir through your dishwasher cycle." It is a little silly but... do you mean to run it on an empty dishwasher just to sanitize the machine or to run it full of dishes as a cleaner for the dishes as well?

Thank you in advance,
Mar

Our mold specialist suggested this as a way to clean the dishwasher when it's empty. Who knows...it might not hurt with the dishes in there! He said the antimicrobial effect of the kefir or yogurt will give it a good cleaning...I'm glad you clarified this, Mar.
