My issue is I don't really know why this is happening. I've got the high loop installed under my sink so I don't think that's the issue. Is it possible the drain hose is too long? I need to buy two standard ones from Home Depot (10ft I think) to make it reach from the dishwasher to the sink. That's the only thing I can think off, but I don't want to try a somewhat difficult solution (where I simply extend some plumbing behind the dishwasher so the drain hose is shorter) if that's not the issue.
EDIT: I did replace the dirty drain hose about 6 months ago as I thought it was just the fact that the old owners hadn't done that in a long time. However, it's just as dirty again in that short amount of time.

Have you had anyone test the water quality in your home? We had a company come by the house the other day and told us about the poor quality water we get from the City of Calgary. These guys presented City identification and seemed very knowledgeable about water quality here in Calgary. I didn't get their number, but they're called Simply Green or something like that. They will probably visit your house soon so no need to hunt them down.
