Asked at the launderette

What temperature should I wash denim at on a Miele WSD 323 WPS?

Wash denim at 30C using the Cottons programme on the Miele WSD 323 WPS. Denim bleeds indigo and fades with hot water and frequent washing.

What spin speed is safe for denim?

Use 800 rpm. A gentler spin removes enough water without stressing the fibres. Wash inside out, cold, with like colours, and wash it less often.

Do I need the care label to wash denim?

No. Lavo identifies the fabric and condition from a photo of the garment itself and gives the exact setting for your Miele WSD 323 WPS, even when the care label is faded, cut out, or missing.

What happens if I wash denim too hot?

Denim bleeds indigo and fades with hot water and frequent washing. That is why the safe setting here is 30C on the Cottons programme.
