The cooking oven is always used with different frequencies, but in any case, sooner or later it gets dirty. Let's take a look at several ways how to clean the oven from grease and deposits using the simplest means.

How to clean the oven from grease and carbon deposits with baking soda and vinegar

Cleaning the oven with baking soda and vinegar is easy. This mixture brings household appliance to a radiant state without damaging the surface. The method will do and for washing baking sheets, grates and handles.

Required Ingredients:

• 100 milliliters of vinegar;
• soda - 40 grams;
• 25 grams of laundry soap.

Cleaning process:

1. We mix the specified amount of vinegar with baking soda, so that it almost dissolves, and then add soap there.
2. Cover all walls with composition oven, door and handle, leave for about two hours.
3. After this time, with the help of a regular sponge and water, we easily remove loose dirt and plaque.

Using ammonia

Wash the oven using ammonia can be done in two ways. It removes stubborn stains well and is great for cleaning your gas stove.

1. We take ammonia, treat all contaminated areas well with it and leave it overnight. After this time, all fat and carbon deposits should be easily washed off if you walk on them with water detergent.
2. Another option is more time consuming. The oven heats up to 70 degrees, turns off. A container with boiling water is placed on the lower shelf, and ammonia is placed on the upper shelf. All this is left in this form overnight, while the door must be closed. In the morning, it is enough to dilute alcohol with water and detergent, and rinse the cabinet with this mixture.

We clean with citric acid

Another good way bring the oven to a shine - use citric acid.

When baking your favorite dishes in the oven is accompanied not by appetizing aromas, but by burnt fumes from old fat and soot, then it's time to clean the oven.

Fat deposits accumulated on the walls of the oven begin to burn and smoke when heated, which affects the quality of the cooked food

Most modern models ovens are made with a special non-stick coating on the inner walls and are equipped with a self-cleaning function. To properly clean the oven at home, you need to carefully read the instructions for use and the manufacturer's recommendations. Depending on the types and materials of the coating, the type of cleaning system provided, different means and methods are used.

Oven cleaning systems

Pyrolytic

Cleaning the oven using pyrolysis technology (from the ancient Greek "feast" - fire and "lysis" - decay) does not require any effort on your part.

An oven with a self-cleaning pyrolytic system is sufficient to wipe with a damp cloth

The pyrolysis system is based on the combustion of all food residues that have fallen on the inner walls and bottom of the oven at a very high temperature (up to 500 ℃) to the state of ash. Only electric ovens are pyrolysis ovens, since in gas models it is almost impossible to achieve this temperature level During self-cleaning, the "cold door" technology is triggered (the outer glass heats up no higher than 55 ℃) and the opening interlock. The door is unlocked only when the temperature drops to 200-250 ℃.

The thermal cleaning process is accompanied by unpleasant smells of burnt fat and other organic contaminants. To eliminate these "odors", the ovens have a built-in catalytic filter that does not need to be washed or replaced, as it cleans itself automatically (approximately every 100 hours of operation in annealing mode).

When you are going to clean the oven with pyrolysis roasting, it is better to additionally include cooker hood or ventilate the room

To clean electric oven with a pyrolytic system is not difficult. This requires:

1. Remove all baking trays and racks from the oven, and remove the wire guides. They are washed and cleaned separately by hand or in the dishwasher.
2. Switch on the oven in self-cleaning mode.
3. After the end of the program in the cooled oven, collect the burnt soot with a soft damp cloth or sponge.
4. Replace the washed guides.

After baking the oven, wipe off the settled soot with a damp cloth without using any detergents.

Cleaning using pyrolysis technology is considered the most effective: it removes dirt from all surfaces of the working chamber, does not provide for the replacement of consumables. Ovens of this type are made from high quality metals capable of withstanding high temperature loads.

Disadvantages of pyrolytic ovens: high cost, bad smell during calcination, the need to carry out cleaning in a separate mode (not simultaneously with cooking), which is accompanied by high energy consumption: from 4 to 7 kW.

Catalytic

In ovens with a catalytic system, the process of catalysis (acceleration of chemical reactions) occurs continuously, which ensures continuous cleaning every time the oven is used.

The surfaces of the rear and side walls, convector blades in catalytic furnaces have a special coating

The coating of the inner walls of the chamber in furnaces with a catalytic system looks like dark enamel, slightly rough due to a large number micropores. They contain harmless to humans chemical composition with a catalyst that, when heated, causes an active oxidative reaction. With an accelerated oxidation reaction, fats and other organic matter deposited on the walls of the chamber, right in the process of cooking decay into carbon (black soot) and water. Constant self-cleaning prevents the accumulation of dirt and deposits on the surfaces of the oven cavity.

To clean the oven from fat and carbon deposits, it must be heated to a temperature of at least 140 ℃, and catalysis works most effectively at 200-250 ℃.

Due to the properties of the coating, it is permissible to clean the oven with a catalytic system only with mild detergents and tools. Do not use brute force, scrubbing the inner walls with a stiff brush or sponge, use powders that contain abrasive particles. Such methods will lead to damage to the enamel layer, significantly reduce its service life.

The special coating loses its catalytic properties over time and requires replacement of the side panels of the oven approximately every 5 years (estimated shelf life 300 hours). At the bottom of the oven, a special coating is not used, since it does not tolerate contacts with milk and sugar, which are often included in the recipe for baked dishes and can escape or drip.

The door in catalytic ovens (electric and gas) has to be washed separately, manually

To keep your oven in top condition, try to clean the oven quickly after each use by wiping the sides and bottom of the accumulated soot with a damp cloth or sponge, adding liquid detergent if necessary.

Hydrolytic (hydrolytic)

An oven with a hydrolysis system will have to be cleaned using physical methods and stronger means.

For mechanical cleaning of ovens that do not have a special non-stick coating, use hard sponges and metal scouring pads

If a sticky grease layer has accumulated on the walls of the cooking compartment, turn on the oven in the self-cleaning mode, which is provided in many models. For this you need:

1. Pour 0.5-1 liters of water (preferably purified or filtered) into a deep baking sheet.
2. Put it in the oven and turn on the oven heating mode at the recommended temperature and time (usually 30 minutes at 70 ℃).
3. After the water has evaporated, the oven should be allowed to cool slightly, then the softened dirt from all internal walls should be washed off with a sponge and detergent.
4. Wipe dry with a clean cloth or tissue.

Exposure to hot steam can hardly be called a full-fledged cleaning, it only helps to soften deposits, but they still have to be washed by hand. The walls and bottom of the hydrolytic ovens are covered with smooth AquaClean enamel, which is acid-resistant and does not "get saturated" with grease and dirt. It is necessary to treat the enamel layer with care and, in order not to spoil it with scratches, it is better not to use aggressive alkaline agents, abrasive powders and rough cleaning methods.

Now let's look at what means you can clean the oven quickly and efficiently.

Use of industrial chemicals should be careful: follow the instructions for use, wear gloves on your hands

For cleaning kitchen stoves and ovens, specialized gels, pastes, aerosols have been developed and are massively sold: Shumanit, Mr Muscle, Cillit Bang, Comet, Frosch, Amway Oven Cleaner cabinets by Amway), etc.

Use of industrial chemicals should be careful: follow the instructions for use, put on gloves on your hands, rinse thoroughly with water in order to prevent extraneous odors and tastes from entering the food.

As an alternative to chemicals, many prefer to use safer and cheaper - folk, such as laundry soap, vinegar, soda, citric acid, salt, ammonia, etc.

To prepare the simplest cleaning solution, it is advised to dilute the shavings. laundry soap or dish detergent (1 tbsp. l.) in 0.5 liters of hot water. The solution in a heat-resistant container is placed in the oven chamber. The oven is turned on at 100-110 ℃ and left for 20-30 minutes. Then let the oven cool to a warm state and wipe off all the soaked dirt and old grease from the inner surfaces with a damp sponge.

Sliced ​​lemon will ensure cleanliness and freshness if you add it to soapy water before steaming the oven.

More efficient cleaning is provided by baking soda and table vinegar as part of a soap solution. To prepare the product, you need to dilute 1 tbsp. l. soap shavings in 0.5 liters of hot water, pour in 100 g of vinegar and add 2 tbsp. l. soda. The solution is mixed well, generously applied to all walls, bottom and inner surface of the oven door and left for 2-3 hours.

Soap, vinegar and soda corrode old fat and carbon deposits well, allow you to quickly clean the oven from a layer of sticky brown deposits

Such a home cleaning product copes well with burnt organic dirt on baking sheets, grates, handles and does not damage the fragile enamel layer.

Soda in the form of dry powder for cleaning enamel surfaces is not recommended, but it is advised to use it to remove soot from the glass of the door in case of heavy contamination. The glass is moistened with water, sprinkled with soda evenly and left for 30-40 minutes. Then wipe off with a damp cloth or sponge. To soften a dense layer of greasy soot on the glass and walls inside the oven, it is first better to moisten it not with water, but with vinegar, then sprinkle with soda to achieve a chemical reaction. As a result of intensive foam production, dirt dissolves faster and is easier to remove.

With insignificant fatty deposits, it is enough to wipe the walls of the oven with a slice of fresh lemon (or a solution citric acid and water)

An effective way to clean the oven is considered mixture soda, vinegar and citric acid in equal proportions. Before using this composition, the oven is advised to warm up at a low temperature (50-60 ℃) for 20-30 minutes.

Helps cope with old fat ammonia... It is diluted in water (1 tbsp. L. Per 200 ml), rub all the inner surfaces of the oven and leave overnight with the door closed. Or they heat the oven to 60-70 ℃, turn it off and put two containers in it - one with boiling water on the bottom and the second (small) one with alcohol on the grate installed on the upper level. In the morning, the ammonia is mixed with water, dishwashing detergent is added and all residues of grease and soot are removed with a soft sponge.

When cleaning the oven, make sure that no detergents get on the convector (fan) and heating elements.

Another handy cleaning agent - salt... It can be slightly moistened with water to make it easier to apply to all interior surfaces of the cooking cabinet. The salt-treated oven is turned on and heated until the salt crust turns brown, and then it is removed along with the accumulated dirt.

Eliminate the unpleasant odor from chemicals

If you've used vinegar and ammonia cleaning mixtures to clean the oven, they may smell bad. Help to get rid of it:

• repeated rinsing of residues of funds from all surfaces with a damp cloth;
• ventilation of the working chamber with the door open;
• boiling a container with water in the oven, to which several tablets of activated carbon are added.

Wipe down the sides and bottom of the oven cavity after each cooking in it, then you will not have to spend time trying to clean the oven from fat and carbon deposits, which have caked up in a thick layer.

Stretch ceilings made of PVC film are capable of withstanding from 70 to 120 liters of water per 1 m 2 of their area (depending on the size of the ceiling, the degree of its tension and the quality of the film). So you don't have to worry about leaks from the neighbors on top.

Threads made of gold and silver, which in the old days were used to embroider clothes, are called gimp. To obtain them, the metal wire was pulled for a long time with pliers to the state of the necessary fineness. Hence the expression "pull (breed) gimmick" - "engage in long monotonous work" or "delay the execution of the case."

Fresh lemon is good for more than just tea: clean surface dirt acrylic bath, rubbing with half a cut citrus, or quickly wash the microwave by placing a container with water and lemon wedges in it for 8-10 minutes at maximum power. The softened dirt will simply be wiped off with a sponge.

The dishwasher is not only good for dishes and cups. It can be loaded with plastic toys, glass shades of lamps and even dirty vegetables, such as potatoes, but only without the use of detergents.

There are special traps to fight moths. The pheromones of females are added to the sticky layer with which they are covered, attracting males. Sticking to the trap, they drop out of the reproduction process, which leads to a decrease in the moth population.

The easiest way to remove scale and carbon deposits from the soleplate is table salt. Place a thick layer of salt on the paper, heat the iron to maximum, and press the iron several times over the salt mat using light pressure.

The habit of using the washing machine "sparingly" can lead to the appearance of unpleasant odor... Washing at temperatures below 60 ℃ and short rinses allow fungi and bacteria from dirty clothes to remain on the inner surfaces and actively multiply.

Oh, this appetizing smell of delicious dishes that are cooked in the oven ... We all love it when the divine aroma of food fills our home. And we get upset if instead of him we feel the disgusting smell of burning. And this is what happens when the oven is covered with grease and carbon deposits. Dealing with such pollution is not easy, but possible. There are several effective ways.

We clean the oven with household "chemicals"

There are enough in stores chemicals specially created for washing the oven. The brands Amway, Shumanit, Frosch, Comet have proven themselves well. But it must be remembered that these products are aggressive, and they must be very carefully washed off the surfaces. In addition, many of them leave behind a scent. Therefore it is better to use folk methods, and resort to chemicals in extreme cases. And yet, if you are not confused by the shortcomings of "chemistry", then ...

... Step-by-step instructions for cleaning the oven with special products:

1. Wear rubber gloves so that the chemicals do not damage the skin of your hands.
2. Pour warm water into a bowl and dissolve a little cleaning agent in it (the exact amount is usually indicated on the package).
3. Remove all removable parts (baking tray, wire rack, etc.) and immerse in a container with detergent solution.
4. Apply the cleaning agent to a sponge and rub all surfaces of the oven except the heating elements.
5. Turn on the oven for 15 minutes and wait for the fat to soften.
6. Switch off the oven and remove dirt with a cloth or sponge.

With this method, you can get rid of carbon deposits even if the oven has not been washed for several years.

How to clean an electric oven

The electric oven is most efficiently cleaned with a special paste consisting of Comet or Pemolux, dishwashing liquid, and citric acid can also be added. Take the components in equal proportions. Apply the resulting mixture to all surfaces of the oven, door, baking sheet and shelves with a sponge. After 40-60 minutes (depending on the level of contamination), rinse the paste and thoroughly wash the oven, then wipe dry.

Eliminate the smell of chemicals

First, the oven should be well ventilated by leaving it open overnight. The next morning, pour water into a bowl and dissolve 3-4 tablets of activated carbon in it. Put this solution in the oven and boil there. After 30 minutes of boiling, the smell of "chemistry" should disappear. After that, you need to rinse the oven surfaces again.

Folk methods of cleaning the oven - we use improvised means

Chemicals are not the most environmentally friendly way to deal with grease and carbon deposits. To get rid of the remnants of the product completely, you need to rinse all surfaces several dozen times. If this is not done, the chemicals will enter the food with fumes. Therefore, you can use safe folk ways cleaning the oven. They are just as effective, and often more affordable, than purchased products.

Baking soda is the easiest option

With baking soda, you can clean not only the surfaces of the oven, but also the glass door. Besides the fact that the oven is cleaned of grease and carbon deposits, the unpleasant smell of burning will also disappear.

First you need to gently wipe all surfaces of the oven with a damp sponge. Then sprinkle them thoroughly with baking soda - it adheres well to wet surfaces. Leave the oven for an hour. After this time, carbon deposits can be easily removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

Lemon juice and citric acid

Option one:

1. Squeeze lemon juice into a glass of water and add the same amount of water (or dissolve citric acid in a small amount of water);
2. In this liquid, wet a rag and wipe all surfaces of the oven with it;
3. Leave the solution for at least half an hour;
4. Rinse the oven thoroughly with a damp cloth.

Option two:

The solution is prepared in the same way, only in this case it is poured into a spray bottle. After spraying, wait again for 30-40 minutes, and then wipe the surfaces with a rag.

Option three:

1. Fill a heat-resistant bowl halfway with water, add a little dishwashing liquid and lemon, cut into small wedges;
2. Put the container in the oven and heat to 150 degrees, turn off the oven after half an hour;
3. When the oven cools down a little (after 10 minutes), the softened carbon can be easily removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

In addition to keeping the oven clean, the burning smell will also disappear.

Vinegar

Table vinegar is also an acid that can effectively remove dirt in the oven. We wash the oven as follows:

1. Soak a sponge with vinegar;
2. Remove all removable elements from the oven;
3. Treat with a sponge dipped in vinegar, first the inner surfaces, and then the removable elements;
4. After a few hours, wash off the vinegar with a damp sponge.

Vinegar and soda

A little chemistry lesson: when soda and table vinegar interact, hydrogen is released, which makes it much easier to remove old soot.

Procedure:

1. Wipe the inside of the oven with vinegar;
2. Moisten the sponge with water;
3. Sprinkle it with soda and apply to greasy walls;
4. Treat the oven door with soda;
5. In a few hours, a mixture of baking soda and vinegar will destroy the carbon deposits, and the oven can be wiped with a hard sponge.

If the fat has not completely dissolved and is poorly cleaned, it is worth sprinkling with baking soda and rubbing the surfaces well.

Vinegar, soda and citric acid

The above tools can be successfully combined with each other:

1. Put the oven to warm up to 100 degrees, and leave at this temperature for 15 minutes. At this time, make a mixture of 100 ml of vinegar, 1 tbsp. l. baking soda and 1 pack of citric acid.
2. With the resulting mixture, treat the surfaces of the oven, with the exception of heating elements.
3. After 15 minutes, thoroughly wash the oven.

Ammonia - for advanced cases

This product can easily remove old grease and carbon deposits that have accumulated over several years.

First option using ammonia involves wetting a rag in ammonia and thoroughly treating all surfaces. It is necessary to leave the oven in this state overnight, and in the morning rinse thoroughly with water.

Second option:

1. Pour some water into one heat-resistant bowl, and ammonia into the other;
2. Preheat the oven to 100 degrees and put a container of water in it, wait until the water boils;
3. Turn off the oven and put a bowl of water on the lower shelf, and ammonia on the upper shelf;
4. Close the oven and leave overnight;
5. In the morning, mix water, ammonia and dishwashing liquid, treat the oven surfaces and rinse with water.

Steam (for delicate coatings)

Ovens with an enamel coating are best cleaned with steam, as many other products can damage the material.

Instructions:

1. First you need to pour several glasses of water into a baking sheet (it should not overflow over the edges);
2. Add a little washing liquid to the water (a few drops are enough);
3. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees and leave for 30 minutes, then turn it off.
4. When the surfaces have cooled slightly, wash the oven with a damp cloth.

Salt

You can also wash the oven with ordinary rock salt:

1. Sprinkle salt on shelves and surfaces;
2. Preheat the oven until the salt turns golden;
3. Clean the oven with a cloth dampened in dish detergent.

Preventing grease and carbon deposits

To avoid contamination on the walls of the oven, a simple rule must be followed. After cooking, wait until the oven has cooled down and wipe all surfaces with a damp cloth or sponge. Do not wait for grease and deposits to adhere to your oven. After all, then it will be very difficult to wash it! Also remember to wash the baking sheets. If you are not lazy, then your oven will delight you for a long time with its neat appearance and cleanliness.

If you like to cook food in the oven, then you probably know how difficult it is after washing off the greasy layers that stick to the walls. Over time, this fat begins to burn out slowly, and smokes when cooking.

We clean with vinegar and soda

You just need to clean the oven with vinegar. The grates and trays should be removed, cleaned of dry debris and the entire surface should be moistened with a cloth or sponge. Then apply vinegar evenly to the surface. Then leave the solution for the exposure process for three hours. You can even clean it with vinegar washing machine while removing bad odor.

In the event that the oven is not very dirty, for normal cleaning it will be enough to treat the surface with a damp sponge once. The inner surface will be completely cleansed of this treatment if you do it regularly. If old stains are present on the surface, wipe them off with a brush or a hard-coated sponge.

Another way: a mixture of acetic acid should be diluted in a container in proportion to water in equal amounts. Then dip a sponge or rag in this solution, moisten all the walls with it properly. Immediately after that, take baking soda, sprinkle all contaminated areas with it, leave for an hour to react. During this treatment, hydrogen, which is released during the reaction of soda and vinegar, is completely harmless, nevertheless, it perfectly helps to remove even stubborn and old dirt. After this cleaning, rinse the oven with warm soapy water.

Another home cleaning method. Take a glass dish suitable for a microwave oven, then pour one liter of plain water into this container with the addition of 20 grams of vinegar essence. Then put the bowl inside and turn it on, setting the temperature to 150-170 degrees for a short time, for example, half an hour. After that, turn off the oven and wipe the surfaces until it cools down.

The cleaning result will look something like this:

Glass is also highly susceptible to grease contamination. It is not difficult to clean it. A little baking soda should be sprinkled on the surface. It is better to do this on a damp sponge, and rub the glass in this way, then the soda will remain on the glass for exposure, it will not crumble. After 30-40 minutes, just wipe the glass. Absolutely all old dirt will naturally come off, and your glass will become shiny and transparent again.

We clean with ammonia

If you are wondering how to clean the oven from old carbon deposits and fat, you should try surface treatment with ordinary ammonia. You should be aware that when in contact with ammonia solutions, certain precautions must be observed, that is, do not allow ammonia to get on the skin, work only with rubber gloves. Such treatment can be carried out only by first wearing a respirator, since the smell is very caustic.

After applying the solution to the entire surface of the oven, wash it off after 40-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly until the pungent odor disappears completely. Otherwise, the cooked food will taste bad.

Hot processing

IN hot water Thoroughly dilute a small amount of household soap, you can use any dishwashing detergent, then pour the detergent onto a baking sheet, and then put the baking sheet directly into the oven. Then treat the entire surface of the oven with the rest of the solution. Now close the door very tightly, and then set the temperature on the timer to 130 degrees.

The door closes carefully during processing. The heat treatment process lasts 30 minutes, then the oven should be slightly cooled. After that, all the dirty surfaces of your oven should simply be wiped off. All grease and all dirt from the temperature effects of the hot detergent mixture should be removed from the surface without difficulty.

Combined cleaning methods

Is there some more effective remedy cleaning is salt. Pour the salt into the oven and heat it up. It will absorb dirt and grease and become Brown color, then the remnants of this salt should be swept out or removed with a vacuum cleaner. After such treatment, wash the walls in the usual way.

In addition, at home, you can clean the oven with the usual baking powder used by every housewife. A dirty oven should be sprinkled with this powder and sprinkled lightly with water. After about 20 minutes, the fat is completely collected in lumps, they can be easily removed with a simple damp cloth. You can use a mixture of citric acid and baking soda.

To prepare your own cleaning product, you need to mix 50 grams of water, the same amount of salt and half a glass of baking soda. Turn this mixture into thick paste... Now wipe the inside of the oven with a damp cloth and then spread your paste over the oven surface. The mixture should be left overnight to act, and in the morning rinse it off. In much the same way, you can remove a bad smell from the refrigerator, but that's not about that now.

You can use a combined method for cleaning. That is, first treat the oven with vinegar, then consolidate the success with salt, which will collect all the carbon deposits and fat. After that, wipe with the mixture prepared according to the above recipe, or clean it in a hot way.

Cleaning the oven from old dirt

It is necessary to mix the grated laundry soap, table vinegar and baking soda. How to mix these components, the soap should be perfect and completely dissolve in the liquid. The mixture should be carefully rubbed over the surface. After two hours, the mixture can be washed off. Use this solution to very thoroughly clean all soiled trays and racks. There is another reliable way: citric acid, 20 grams of Pemolux powder (or other similar) and the same amount of dish detergent, mix thoroughly. This mixture should be left to act for 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

These simple methods will help you keep your oven clean.

Over time, every housewife faces a problem: how to clean the oven from grease and soot. Sometimes this task is not easy. Therefore, you will probably come in handy effective methods that allow you to solve the problem with a minimum of effort.

And you will continue to delight your beloved household members delicious meals out of the oven!

1. Dilute some laundry soap or dish detergent in hot water, pour it into a baking sheet and place in the oven. Wipe the walls in the oven with the same solution. Then close the door tightly and set the temperature to 100-120 degrees. The door must be closed during this process. A premature opening can ruin everything. Within half an hour, water vapor will dissolve all food debris, fat and burnt pieces. After 25-30 minutes, turn off the oven and, opening the door, let it cool slightly. Then take a damp cloth and wipe off all surfaces of the oven. Dirt and grease should be removed without difficulty.

2. Soda moistened with warm water will help remove brown deposits from the inner surface of the oven window. Apply it to the spot of contamination and leave it on for 15 minutes. The result will not be long in coming. You can also clean the oven rack in the same way.

3. You can defeat the dirt in the oven using ordinary vinegar. To do this, you need to apply a small amount of liquid to the cooled surface of the oven, distribute with a damp cloth over the entire area to be cleaned and leave for a short amount of time. If the degree of contamination was small, then this will be sufficient, and then wipe off the dirt with a damp sponge. And if the vinegar helped only partially, then you will have to work with a brush.

4. Dilute a 1: 1 solution of acetic acid with water in a cup. Dip an ordinary rag in the solution, moisten the walls of the oven well with it. Take baking soda, sprinkle it on the soiled areas, and leave to act for a short time.

The hydrogen released from the reaction of vinegar with baking soda is completely harmless, but it helps to remove even the most corrosive dirt from the walls of the oven. Finally, rinse the oven with warm soapy water and it will shine like new again.

5. Take glassware from the microwave, pour 1 liter of water and add a tablespoon of vinegar 96%. We put in the oven and turn on with a temperature of 150 degrees for half an hour. Next, turn off the oven, remove the plug from the socket, for the safety of defeat electric shock... While the surface is warm and damp at the same time, it is necessary to wipe the walls. If it does not work out well, the process must be repeated.

6. Particularly courageous can clean the oven with ammonia. To do this, take a rag generously moisten it in ammonia and carefully wipe all surfaces in the oven with it. Then close the door tightly and let the oven sit overnight. In the morning in a bowl with hot water dilute any dish detergent and, dampening a clean cloth in it, thoroughly wipe the walls of the oven. All carbon deposits and dirt must be removed without leaving a trace. Finally, wipe the oven again clean water without soap and wipe it dry.

7. Another remedy is salt, you need to pour it on the inner surface and preheat the oven. When the salt turns brown, sweep up the remaining salt or remove with a vacuum cleaner and wash the oven.

8. You can also remove fat from the oven with a conventional baking powder. After sprinkling the contaminated surface and sprinkling it with water from a spray bottle, you need to wait a while. After a few minutes, the fat will collect into lumps, which can be easily removed with a regular wet cloth. You can use citric acid or baking soda instead of baking powder.

9. In a deep bowl, use a grater to cut a small remnant of laundry soap and pour over this shavings with a pop of vinegar and baking soda diluted in warm water. Mix everything thoroughly until the soap is completely dissolved, and then thickly cover the walls of the oven and the glass on the door with this mixture. After a couple of hours, pour into a bowl warm water, take a clean rag and remove the detergent and dirt from the oven and door. By the way, the same solution can be used to wipe off baking sheets, handles, and grates. It copes well even with old dirt and does not damage the enamel at all.

10. To make your own oven cleaner, simply combine water (1/4 cup), salt (1/4 cup), and baking soda (3/4 cup) in a bowl. This should all blend into a thick paste. Wipe the inside of the oven with a damp cloth and spread the paste all over the inside. Leave it overnight and wash it off in the morning. It may not look very clean when you wipe it off, but it is better than some other cleaning products. This remedy works best when your oven is not overly dirty.

By the way, you can also add liquid detergent to your homemade cleaning mixture for a fresh scent and lather.

11. But this tool can clean not only the oven, but also old rust, and lime deposits on the taps and the shower. You will need powdered citric acid, about a teaspoon of dry cleaning agent such as Pemolux, and a tablespoon of any dishwashing detergent. Mix a bag of citric acid with Pemolux and detergent, stir. You should get a pasty mass, the consistency of liquid sour cream or kefir. Lubricate the entire contaminated surface with this compound. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes. If the dirt is very heavy, lightly dampen the oven 15 minutes after application to prevent the applied mixture from drying out. Then gently wipe everything with a wet sponge. Everything can be removed without difficulty. Wipe the oven several times with a sponge until it is clean.
