Use In A Dishwasher?



I haven't paid much attention to the inner parts of my coffee maker, until today when I made a mess because I failed to close the door to the fiter basket during operation. After owning this machine for nearly six months I noticed that one of the fixed parts warns: "NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN DISHWASHER." (My apologies for the glare in the photo.)

Has anyone here tried preparing coffee in a dishwasher? Is there an advantage to preparing coffee this way?

    I have the exact same coffee maker, and made the same comment to my wife.

    Also, there's no power outlet in the diswasher. So you're basically screwed.

  4. Is there actually some kind of filthy software that scum use to automate comment spamming like this, or are they fanatical enough to hire Asian orphans to do it by hand (well, OK, the content would be pasted)?

    Wabulon,

    One way they do it is beautifully elegant. They advertise "free pr*n". All the user has to do to access the free content is to enter the word in the image. They grab an image off the blogger site and have the pr*n seeker type the letters, which they then copy into the captcha box below.

  6. Andy,

    So you're saying the paste the ad into the comment box here at Crash Landing, and then they get a real person to type in the word verification in real time because that person wants to access their free pr*n?

    And do they actually give the free pr*n to the person, or is that a scam? I think it would be funny if the person typed in the word and then was redirected to Crash Landing. Talk about a ripoff.

  7. Thanks for your explanations. But what is pr*n?

  8. Woody, no doubt they have had claims from consumers who ruined their coffee makers by putting the whole thing in the dishwasher for cleaning (!), and the legend in an effort to minimize future claims.

  9. Yes, but TT, they didn't say don't clean it in the dishwasher, they said don't USE it in the dishwasher.

    I think I need some WOW gold.

  10. Wabulon, it's "porn."

  11. TT, the removable parts, which are supposed to be cleaned after each use, have no warnings about being cleaned in a dishwasher printed upon them.

    Speaking of free p*rn, I did catch a few clips of "Who's Naylin Paylin?" Hillarious!

    Bob, I believe they actually deliver the pr0n, because they want people to keep coming back.

    It's not hard to find pr0n to deliver.

    Hypothetically.

  13. Gene, wouldn't that be p*rn?

  14. "Gene, wouldn't that be p*rn?"

    If I was doing a regular expression search, yes. But, if I was a spammer trying to get past a spam filter, I might want to vary it a bit more.

  15. Andy: They grab an image off the blogger site and have the pr*n seeker type the letters, which they then copy into the captcha box below.

    How does that work - isn't the captcha being continuously reset, so that whatever prawn seekers type in elsewhere would be stale by the time the spammers try to use it here?

    Woody: the removable parts, which are supposed to be cleaned after each use, have no warnings about being cleaned in a dishwasher printed upon them.

    The removable parts are dishwashers safe, am I right? The point being that one should not put the BODY of the coffee maker into the dishwasher.

    Of course their bad English is self-defeating, as any idiot who tries to wash the whole thing can still say, "hey - I didn't try to USE it in the dishwasher, but simply to WASH it, and your warning doesn't caution against THAT."

  16. I hear ya, TT, but I'm not sure those removable parts are dishwasher safe. I fear they'd change their shape in that there hot water.

  17. TT, I found the instruction booklet for my coffeemaker. It says that I can wash the grinder basket, basket lid, filter basket and filter basket cover on the upper rack of a dishwasher. It does not address that cleaning of the pot and its lid.

    I learned tonight that I can remove the reservoir lid (in the photo) by tilting it at 60 degrees and gently pulling. The instructions do not state whether or not I can wash the reservoir lid in the dishwasher.

    There are 24 appliance safegurads enumerated in the front of the booklet. I can't ignore Safeguard #12: Do not use appliance for other than intended use. My intended use of the appliance was for preparing coffee. I suppose there are some people who might use this kind of a coffeemaker to test their dishwasher. Fight it out with the manufacturer.

    The page is so wonderful that I want to write something about myself.
    Yesterday, my boyfriend gave me a lot of FFXI Giland he told me that the FFXI gold is useful for me to go into the net game. At the same time, the Final Fantasy XI gold is the gift for my birthday and I will buy FFXI Gil to thank him because the cheap Final Fantasy XI Gold is not free for him.
