How to Clean an Oven the Cheap and Green Way
Do you hate the smell of those store bought oven cleaners? Do you want to learn the easiest and safest way to clean your oven? How about the cheapest way to clean it? Read below to see how!
Instructions
- First take out the racks in the oven. You can clean the racks with just using simple grease fighting dish soap. Grab a spray bottle and add half vinegar and half water. Shake and spray the inside of your oven.
- Take a handful of baking soda and spread on top of the vinegar in the oven. Spray more vinegar on it for the tougher stains.
- Wait for 20 - 25 minutes to let the two products combine and react with one another. The reaction will break down all of the tough grease spots PLUS disinfect the oven at the same time!
- After the time is up take a damp sponge or rag and wipe clean. You may need to scrub just a bit for those stubborn burnt on stains. After its clean and dry you may see dried baking soda spots still in the oven. This means you used a bit too much baking soda. Just wipe up the spots.
- Put in your clean racks and sit back and look at your work. This is such an easy clean up job!
Tips and Warnings!!
- You may want to wear gloves if you do not like the smell of vinegar.
- Wash your hands after you clean the oven with dish soap. It will take the smell of vinegar off of your hands.
- Do not use an oven cleaner prior to using this method. The chemicals from that cleaner combined with baking soda and vinegar make give a reaction that is harmful.
- Turn off your oven and let it cool. NEVER clean a oven while hot!
