Sorry, perhaps I got it in the wrong way, but, while using front loaders, I can share the thing about water being more prone to bead up on the glass window, and that is a sign of good rinsing... Very true!
But, I could also see that once softener has been added, actually, water beads up even more....but if softeners are emulsions of fats and you say that this will not happen in presence of fatty emulsions, , then that leaves me a little confused about why indeed to me it seems increased this thing...
Also...
You know, if you have ever used natural soaps in a front loader, you will have noticed that this thing of water happens with soaps very much, as soon as water is being rinsed and loose it's soapy tension thing( pardon, don't know how the heck call it, if there is a term, hope you get what I mean) to get into "scum" ( fatty origin compound ) patina greysh rinse water (substantially rinse water from soaps, I know you know what I mean) so then you'll see it will start creating these drops beadsvery much, like it does with softeners, and sure much more than how it may happen and does happen naturally by letting the machine run empty...
Is it just me experiencing that?
