Some things that are commonly believed simply aren’t true. Take searing meat, for example. It doesn’t help keep moisture in at all – what you’re actually doing is browning it to add flavour.
A regular cup of coffee usually has more caffeine than an espresso, too. Espresso has more by volume, but the tiny cups mean you won’t drink very much.
Another common myth is that dishwashers are expensive to run. They aren’t.
Ever wondered how many litres of water a dishwasher uses during a cycle? Or whether using a dishwasher is more efficient than washing up by hand?
Bosch have created this simple video which shows exactly how water efficient their dishwashers are – you’ll be amazed by the results.
Some dishwashers, like those featuring Bosch’s ActiveWater technology, use as little as 6.5 litres of water in a cycle. If you washed the same amount of crockery, cutlery, pots and pans in the sink, you’d need to fill a bowl multiple times to do the same job.
Dishwashers are energy efficient, too. The electricity costs an average of just 14p per cycle*.
It’s a common misconception that dishwashers fill up with water, but in reality there’s just a small amount at the bottom of the machine. This is much hotter than your hands could bear in the sink – all the better for killing germs – and is sprayed on the dishes at high pressure to get them sparkling clean.
