Tip for a Tuesday...

 Um, am I the last person to find out that there is a filter in the bottom of the dishwasher that needs to be periodically cleaned?

In fairness, I am one of those people who rinses her dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. My Dad drilled it into us when he finally installed a dishwasher in the mid '70's that any food particles left on the plates would clog the pipes. And the last thing we wanted to do was clog the pipes, right Dad? So I have always rinsed before placing.

But a recent odor coming from the dishwasher caught my attention and with a bit of online research, I discovered that there was a filter that needed to be cleaned. After sharing this information with my Englishman, he quickly located said filter and cleaned it off. Thankfully, it wasn't that dirty. (See, pre-rinsing does help!) We then ran the hottest cycle with two small containers of vinegar located on the top rack. And snap! Odor gone!

So you might want to check your dishwasher manual and see if you too have a filter that needs checking. Could ward off unpleasant odors and trouble down the line.
