Re: Cold water - doing dishes and shaving

Post by SilverElephant »

My experience is that the warm/hot water is mostly there to increase the solubility of the "dirt" in the soapy/dishwasherliquid-y water. If you still can put your hand in it, the water can't be much more than 40°C/110°F, which won't kill that many germs.

I just use lukewarm water.
