Coffee or tea stains on dishes? Common dishwasher mistakes and how Splendido C helps solve them
Stains, starch residues and inconsistent results? Here are common commercial dishwashing mistakes and how Splendido C helps address them.
Mistake 1: using a detergent that does not match the real soil load
In commercial dishwashing, not all soils behave the same way. Coffee, tea, starch residues and lipstick marks require a detergent that can work effectively within a short machine cycle.
Splendido C is designed for exactly that: an alkaline active chlorine dishwasher detergent with stain-removing action on coffee, tea and starch, plus a sanitising effect during washing. It is especially relevant for bars and canteens with high turnover.
Mistake 2: ignoring water hardness
Inconsistent washing results often come from a dosage setting chosen without considering water hardness. If concentration is too low for actual site conditions, cleaning performance can drop, especially with heavy soil and fast cycles.
Splendido C provides clear dosing guidance: 2 g/L in soft water, 3 g/L in medium water and 4–5 g/L in hard water. Setting the dosing unit correctly is one of the main factors in achieving stable results.
Mistake 3: assuming the product is the only factor
When dishes come out marked or stained, the detergent often gets blamed first. In professional practice, however, the dosing system, a complete wash cycle and clean machine nozzles also affect the outcome.
That is why the Splendido C method includes simple but essential checks: verify the dosing unit, run the full cycle, and inspect product level and nozzle cleanliness weekly. Even a suitable detergent depends on correct machine delivery.
Mistake 4: adding unnecessary pre-treatment steps
In high-turnover operations, pre-treatment slows down the workflow and adds labour. If the chosen detergent cannot handle typical service soils during the normal wash cycle, staff end up compensating with extra manual steps.
Splendido C helps remove coffee, tea and lipstick marks without pre-treatment, working within the standard 60–90 second machine cycle. This supports a more streamlined process where fast turnaround matters.
