penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.
Whenever I put fabric conditioner in the little drawer in the washing machine it's always filled with water after the machine has finished its cycle. I tend to use a sponge to soak up the water as I can't see a way of getting the drawer out without breaking it. It's an old Bosch machine we inherited when we broke the flat. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to solve the problem? TIA
Thanks for all your replies. I don't think I'm overfilling it. I've looked more closely and there's a picture of a finger so have pushed down on this and - hey presto - it's come out - so will have a go at cleaning it. Normally I would just ignore it but there's so much water in it that when I open the drawer water tends to slosh out.
Read recently that you do have to wash it out as it does clog up every now and then. Thought mine had broken when I first realised and my machine isn't that old.
my bosch does it too I have tried creaning it out (really good clean then put the drawer in a dishwasher cycle), still does it. I just leave it with the water in it now.
Mine does this. I use a cotton bud to poke in the holes above the fabric conditioner compartment and clear out any gunk. Then run a quick wash with no conditioner. Hth
I have a bosch and it does it. You should be able to get the drawer out (theres usually a tab you have to press to release it but its virtually impossible to see it on mine)
If all else fails scrub what you can and try wiggling a bottlebrush in any likely tubes downwards.
