I do 10, not 9, not 11, ten flips of the wrist , like snapping a whip to get the excess water out, hang the brush bristles down overnight to dry. Anyway ........ that's what I do.

Then you buy a new washing machine after every load of whites?

Sure we all buy new washers after every load of whites in the US . that way we never have any left over bleach in the bottom for our next load of colors. Doesnt everybody do that??

Nah, we just turn the drum inside-out for the next load. All the bleach remnants get flung off due to centrifugal force.

Bleach in the wash? I haven't done that in 20 years. I only use bleach to sanitize the front loader every now and then. Most modern detergents do a great job on whites as is.
