DV45 - I use a ultrasonic cleaner too. not just the sonic waves but it heats the water. mine has a 8 min max timer so I give it a good shake after each cycle. I would like to know a little more about how molecules attract. I think the larger ones combine with other larger molecules first and the same for the smaller one. a few days ago I sent an e-mail to FoodPairings.com asking for advice but they haven't replied yet.
