Technology Connections did a video about dishwashers, including one showing the soapy food water sloshing out of it.
There's a reason they stay opaque.
That video is why I went back to powder instead of gel.
I don't have a dishwasher and I don't have time to watch this video about dishwashers right now, but I am really curious, why is the powder better than gel?
Gel is basically powder with water mixed in, therefore you are basically buying water for them to premix your detergent with at the factory. You end up paying more for a container of detergent that doesn't last as long, is heavier, and is more expensive. Powder forever!
He also mentioned something about a chemical reaction that happens when the powder hits water that you miss out on when using gel.
