Siemens WG56 IQ700 powerSpeed washing machine - Cottons 30° mini load (short version)

This is the Cottons cycle with the mini load option selected. This is quite a versatile cycle. With a very small load, it will complete a 30° wash in around 35 mins, and 60° in 45. For a small load under 0.5kg it will perform two rinses with no spins, and a 30 second 1600 spin at the end. If it detects a larger load, it will readjust the time at the end of the wash and add around 10 mins. In this circumstance it will then perform interim spins to ensure the larger load is rinsed to a good standard. With this adaptability, it is effectively a “super quick” type option that can be added to a cycle.
It is a lot more flexible than the single wash option on Miele - for a start it lets you add up to 3 extra rinses, water plus, less ironing and pre wash. It is slightly less efficient than the Spin & Spray rhythm on Miele’s single wash, but still only uses less than 0.2kWH for 30°. Either way, both manufacturers have an interesting approach to this option.
The full model number of this machine is WG56B2ATGB.
