+====== Dishwashing! For the True Heroes of the Flow! :) ======
+Dishwashing at the House of Tea is an essential way of helping the tea flow. One of the major bottlenecks in the tea flow is the lack of clean/fresh cups!
+As essential for the tea flow, it is also important that it is done properly, so everyones' health and well-being be preserved to our best effort.
+For this purpose, there are some usages to know and precautions to take:
+<WRAP box round center important 700px>IMPORTANT: in order to minimize risks of contamination, we adopt the strict following protocol:
+  * ONE OR TWO PERSON(s) WASH(ES) ONE ENTIRE BATCH of cups, instead of everybody attempting -sometimes slopily- to wash theirs, in order to minimize the "number of hands" in the wash, and potential for mistakes.
+  * Dishwashing is made USING DISPOSABLE GLOVES.
+  * No food-stained or other non-tea-related greasy items be left in the soak/wash, in order to make the wash easier.
+  * We attempt to change the dishwashing water(s) as often as possible. See [[how to help]] with the water cycle.

+===== A Dishwashing (work-)flow for the tea cups =====
+<WRAP box round right 300px>
+=====Teapots deserve a special treatment!. =====
+Teapots should not be considered "dirty" once used, and **do not need to be washed like the cups** (it would actually be cumbersome and inefficient with such setup).
+So in order to recycle/refresh the teapots:
+  * fill them with approx 1/5-1/4 of boiling water that you carefuly "rotate" inside for a few seconds.
+  * discard the water in the used water disposal container.
+  * eventually wipe their handle with hyrdo-alcoholic gel if it reassures you.
+  * put back in the inventory of clean items.
+(the same applies to tea strainers!)

+Our dishwashing consists of 4 different stations/boxes + 1 drying rack:
+==== 1/ soaking ====
+This is where it all begins! :)
+All used cups are left in the soak box.
+It is composed of **liquid Marseille soap**, which has very strong anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.
+==== 2/ wash ====
+It is composed of **Sodium Bicarbonate** (aka "Natron" or "baking soda"), in rather strong proportion (about xxxx per liter?), thus making a very basic solution that will kill/wash everything, while leaving no unpleasant taste or smell.
+Scrub with dedicated sponge.
+==== 3/ rinse ====
+A rinse in fresh/clear water.
+==== 4/ dry ====
+Cups are disposed on the drying racks. We hopefully can change the table cloths on which they rest regularly often that they dont stay soaked.
+If energy is available and/or if clean cups are immediately missing, they could eventually be hand-dried...
