Only certain dishes, primarily some of our clay bowls and glass cups, come out covered in white flecks and dried white film. I watched that one guy’s (the everyone loves) video about dishwashers and followed all of his advice - run hot water before starting, use powder only, clean filter, rinse aid, etc. - but nothing is working. In looking at the dishwasher itself, you can see there is some nasty shit built up. We didn’t have this with our last dishwasher, so I don’t think it’s a “hard water” issue. Not sure what to do or how to resolve this. Ideas?

Edit: wow! Thanks for all the comments, everyone. I’ll start going through them one by one and troubleshooting from there. Appreciate you taking the time.
