A dishwasher with a novel drying cycle is provided. The dishwasher door includes a vent channel connecting the interior of the dishwasher to the outside and housing a condenser section that condenses water vapor from moisture laden air from the interior of the dishwasher and directs the condensed water back into the dishwasher. A vent valve covers the opening of the vent channel into the dishwasher and is opened and closed at appropriate times during the drying cycle. A heater adjacent a blower heats air entering the dishwasher. A temperature sensor in the dishwasher interior provides temperature measurements of the inside of the dishwasher that may be used to control the duration of the drying cycle. A controller interconnects the operating components of the dishwasher and provides the logic for the drying cycle.
