Deep cleaning appliances can be a daunting task, but a cleaning expert has revealed two easy hacks to make air fryers look brand new again. Given the enduring popularity of air fryers, it’s essential to keep yours in pristine condition.
While it’s advisable to wash air fryers after each use, cleaning can sometimes be neglected. To ensure your gadget is thoroughly cleaned, cleaning influencer Jen, also known as @cleaningwithjen, shared two methods for eliminating grease build-up.
In a TikTok video from last month, Jen explained that her tips are for those whose air fryers are looking ‘worse for wear’, particularly if they have a significant grease build-up, reports the Express. For air fryers that aren’t too dirty, Jen recommends using a degreaser and a scrubbing tool to “scrub the living daylights of that drawer out with”.
She suggests using Fairy’s Power Spray and an electric scrubber for the task. Afterwards, run the air fryer basket under hot water and wash away the dirt down the sink.
However, if the air fryer’s grease and grime are too stubborn, you’ll need to try a different approach. Jen said: “Now if the situation inside your air fryer drawer is grim and you’ve lost all hope, then this is what you’re gonna do.
“Dishwasher tablet and some boiling hot water, leave it for 20 minutes and this will be your result. The dishwasher tablet will release the grime like nothing else.
“Then all you should need to do is to give it a quick wipe out and there you go, your drawers will be back to brand new in no time.”
Jen’s video has been viewed over 20,600 times. The Dustpan and Brush Store commented: “The therapy watching this.”
Mads advised: “No not a quick wipe out after dishwasher tablet, the most thorough scrub and rinse ever so you don’t leave those chemicals in there.”
Another said, “The satisfaction is UNREAL,” while Yasmine replied, “Omggg need to try this asap.”
