"...you've got to make a suggestion, not just describe the problem."
"I want to have a sponge or something to be able to go into the little crevices to get the water out. Maybe even a little vaccuum tool like the dentists use."
Sounds like a solution to me. Personally, I'd have gone for a dishwasher rack that shakes like a wet dog. Less practical, more halfbaked. |

Thank you phoenix. |

I usually get them out and bash them a few times on the
sink drainer, maybe a very strong vibrating dishwasher,
followed by another hot air blast.
I used to work in a bar and when the glasses came out of
the washer we had to dab the tops with a cloth before
re-stacking the glass storage. Not too much trouble and
solved the problem. |

<scratches back of head> - guess i'm getting ahead of myself if i'm already getting comparisons with the legendary sealybot... my conquest was supposed to be slow and subtle. Oh well. |

What beaux said. Putting them away wet is bad, how? |
|
| |
When I empty the DW, I lay a dish towel out on the counter. I tap these lids on it just to shake out the excess water, but I'll still put them away wet. They will dry in the cabinet. The dish towel is more handy for things like mugs, which collect water on the upside-down bottoms. And I have this one iced tea carafe which usually collects about two cups of water in its base. |

What's wrong with using a plate-drying rack? |
|
| |
I think having compressed air and a airgun in the kitchen would be useful. My husband has these in his shop and he is always using them to blow stuff out or dry things off. Also, just like in the shop, you could have pneumatic kitchen appliances. Guests would really wonder what you're cooking if the sounds coming from your kitchen were roughly the same as those coming from a tire shop. |
|
| |
Rather than have the water jets rotating and the dishes still, the dish rack should rotate and the water jets stay still. Hell, make them both rotate if you want. But fast, very fast. Remaining droplets should fly off the wet dishes. |

what is the tumble dryer for? for goodness sake. puppies? |
|
| |
bris, nice idea. Needs it's own post. I would love to see the look on my guests faces when I operated the air-powered turkey knife. Has to be loud, like an air-hammer wratchet gun. |
|

UhhOK, be glad you have a dishwasher. I don't even have a double sink at the moment, and doing dishes really sucks. But who designs those lousy dishracks in those things? Lids always were a problem. Maybe there could be an attachment that you could clamp to the waterjet arms that would fling the lids around. |

I'm for keeping with the grease(monkey) pit concept kitchen. Pots, pans, wok, mixer, and steamer all have quick-release fittings that can be snapped to hot or cold air or water hoses. These colored hoses are pressurized and hang near the food prep area where they can be pulled into use. |
|
| |
The effect would be similar to fast-food prep lines, except with more steam geysers, water hisses, rattling, and squeals. |

You'd need one of those rather pricey oiless compressors and a nice air dryer. |
|
| |
The oiless compressors are designed to be able to supply breathing air as well as run tools, sprayguns, etc. Regular oiled compressors can pollute the air supply with carbon monoxide among other bad things. |
|
| |
The air dryer would help keep the kitchen tools from icing up during use plus you wouldn't want condensate spitting into your food. I guess vegetable oil could be used to lube the tools. |
|
| |
I wonder if you could do weird baking with sealed pressurizable bread loaf pans (hyperbaric bread)? |
|
| |
Snap-On and National-Detroit kitchen tools. Heh. |

Laughing too hard to annotate. Absolutely doubled over at the the thought of a "Swag Pneumatic Carving Knife" in lieu of the ubiquitous swag lamp pendantly coiled above the dining table at a traditional Norman Rockwell holiday dinner. And a pneumatic Margarita Blender would have been perfect for Cinco de Mayo. |

[Mephista]: The above snippet is from a silly song. To make sense of it, you must close your eyes and open your ears. It magically becomes "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy." |
