Dishwasher energy

So here’s a thing.

For the last little while, I’ve been running our dishwasher on a short cycle, intending to save energy. This seemed like a no-brainer: why wouldn’t I run the dishwasher on a short cycle if the results were still just as good?

Reader, I was a fool. The instruction manual is explicit:

To obtain optimum cleaning and drying results at a reduced running time, water and energy consumption are increased.

Don’t make my mistake.
