A method of rinsing fabric in a washer having a wash chamber rotatable about a horizontal axis comprises the step of adding water to the wash chamber and spraying the rinse water by recirculating it onto the fabric while spinning the wash chamber at a speed (s2) to effect a centrifugal force on said fabric such that the fabric will not tumble within the wash chamber as it spins. The method further comprises at least a last rinsing step in which the rotating speed (s1) of the wash chamber is such that the fabric tumbles within the wash chamber and in that the rinsing water is not recirculated and sprayed onto the fabric. |
