Oven Cleaning Guide

It's the workhorse of your kitchen. It's exposed to splatters, spills, smoke and even scorching. From bubbling cheese to spilled sauces, the dirt gets heated with consecutive usage of your oven and forms an unsightly layer. After you’ve roasted and baked for weeks, the oven is bound to get grimy. Sometimes it gets too dirty that it makes you cringe. No one really looks forward to cleaning their oven. But it doesn't have to be a hassle. Just use the right oven cleaning products to make your work easy for you. Your oven's functionality will be affected by a build-up of dirt. For instance, they make it more difficult for it to vent the heat from its elements, and keep the air circulating.

You also have to contend with grease and charred food that accumulates and turns into carbon, and ends up tainting your food.

The Value Of Oven Cleaning Products

The hygiene and cleanliness of your kitchen is vital. Your oven takes a lot of battering from is busy nature- from making piping hot pies with crisp crust, a juicy sausage and mixed mushroom lasagne, lasagne rolls, hiding your bubbling beef and ale filling, preparing tender stem, shallot and sweetcorn chicken potato pies to a virtuous vegetarian moussaka, some comfort meatballs, or a shepherd's pie or even a creamy fish pie topped with buttery mash. Preparing these meals results in all kinds of spills and residue. There are hundreds of recipes that you can prepare using your oven, and you have no doubt tried a couple. From cakes and ribs to casseroles and oven-cooked beans- your oven can handle them all. The dish will be fantastic, but it will leave your oven in need of cleaning.

That's bad for business. You should also remember that a health inspector can drop by at any moment and shut down your establishment in a heartbeat, simply because of that.

The quality of your food also matters. Think about how much impact a sticky oven ill have on your meals. If it's choke-full of smouldering oil it will ruin the flavour of your meals, and give them a smoky taste. The grease that's clinging on to the interior of your oven may drip into your food and give it a nasty taste. It's not just about your palate- ingesting the residue is harmful to your health. When the grease blocks the fan and heating source, the food is less likely to get cooked thoroughly. Those at the dinner table won't be quick to complement the chef. If you're preparing a meal involving meat and chicken, you'll be running the risk of food poisoning. 

You also want to be able to clearly see through the oven window in case you love making cakes and soufflés, in order to get a good view of what's going on.

A top oven cleaner is what you need to get your oven sparkling efficiently. 

How To Clean Your Oven

You'll need time and space. Choose the time when your kitchen area is at its least active. First ensure you have the recommended oven cleaning products for your unit. Get a pair of rubber gloves and any other safety precautions that have been recommended on your oven cleaner label. Also grab your tools. You'll need a spoon or blunt blade, paper towels, scrubbing brush or a hard-wearing scrubbing sponge, and a microfiber cloth. 

1. Switch off the oven. Better yet, completely disconnect it from the electricity and gas source before you start cleaning. It will being the chances of an accident occurring down to zero.

2. Remove the shelves. You'll clean them separately later. You'll soak them in a basing with warm water and the washing up liquid, rinse and wipe them dry. 

3. Use your spoon or blunt blade to scrape off and remove the loose or the baked-on food residue. The blunt edges of a wooden spoon are perfect for scraping off the burnt-on dirt without damaging the inside of your oven. Removing the excess will reduce the workload for your own cleaner and make it deliver results faster. Clear out everything else from the oven, including the thermometer and pizza stone. 

4. Spray the oven cleaner on the interior of the oven. Apply it to the sides, bottom and the door panel. Leave the roof for last – if you start by spraying the roof you're likely to get the oven cleaner dripping onto your arms. Use a brush to get to the hard-to-reach areas, away from the oven’s fans, door seals and the heating elements. Focus on the charred and stained areas, and ensure the carbon is completely saturated. In case you're using an oven cleaner that's in paste form, apply it using a toothbrush. You can even use a paint brush- whichever you find easier.

5. Leave the oven cleaner to work for you. Give it about 30 minutes -or the time described in the label. Its oils and chemicals will break down the grime and tough stains, which will then be easier for you to eliminate. Test different areas to see if the charred parts have loosened.

6. Scrub using the brush or sponge. You just need something with medium bristles that can bring up dirt without risk of damage. Pay particular attention to areas that are more prone to gather dirt- like the interior of the oven door, and its bottom.

7. Wipe the residue away using the microfiber cloth. Ensure you keep rinsing your cloth to prevent you from spreading dirt around your oven. You can also use other kinds of cloth, as long as they won't disintegrate and leave any fibres behind. The fibres could burn in the oven and wreak havoc.

8. Leave the oven door oven and allow it to ventilate. Don't use it for a few hours. This will give the fumes from the oven cleaning products enough time to dissipate.

9. Put back inside everything that you had previously taken out – only after you've cleaned them though. If the shelves won't fit into the sink to wash you can always use the bathtub. 

You can now enjoy the refreshing look of your thoroughly cleaned oven. Most people get surprised after cleaning their oven- they thought the interior was dark and black, only for it to turn out bright, clean and shiny. Revert your oven to its original state and colour using professional oven cleaning products.

What About Self-Cleaning?

There are modern oven units that come with self-clean features. During the self-cleaning cycle the oven gets heated to around 880�F (471� C.). The high temperature makes the food residue inside the oven to decompose, and leave behind a small amount of ash- similar to cigarette ash. It’s then wiped away using a wet cloth. But there's a problem. The reason why your oven comes with a self-cleaning is because customers demanded it, and manufacturers yielded into the pressure. It's literally pushing an oven to do something that is quite extreme to engineer, and there are genuine risks of damaging the oven. For instance, when self-cleaning temperatures go to over 1000�, the elements and the oven just get so hot that the fuse pops, and the control panel burns out. That's way above the 350� to 500� range of normal baking. In fact, most oven repair calls are made due to self-cleaning problems. Sometimes the entire oven will need to be pulled out from your wall, and get fixed from behind. That's more time and expenses spent on your part. That means you can't just sit back and expect your oven to clean itself all up for you. Get the recommended oven cleaning products that make your work easier. 

If you have a self-cleaning oven, you won't have to spend much time on your hands. After removing the ash, clean the door interior using the oven cleaner. It will get rid of the grime and splatters that have been embedded and burnt into remaining surfaces and the glass. However, ensure that your oven cleaning products is safe to use on glass before proceeding to clean the glass door. Never apply oven cleaning products in the oven when it's on a self-clean cycle. Wait till it's done and has cooled.

Choosing an Oven Cleaner

There are also the thick or foaming solutions that will stick to the walls of your oven, instead of just running down to form a pool at the bottom. You can also find oven cleaners for sale that come tooth natural ingredients such as citrus oils to break own the grease. 

Common Myths About Oven Cleaning

Let's debunk a couple pf myths revolving around cleaning your oven.

· All oven cleaning products are the same.

Different manufacturers have different designs and use varying ingredients. That's why you'll find some oven cleaners work better and are trusted more than others. Go for renowned products that garnered consumers trust, and have been proven to be safe and effective. Check if the oven cleaners that contain harmful gases that can cause dizziness or vomiting when inhaled. They should be used in well-ventilated areas. In addition, check the caustic soda (sodium hydroxide content). It is very corrosive and can damage the lining, trims, seal and the heating element in your oven. This compromises the aesthetics and functionality of your unit. Go for products that have low caustic soda content, or are completely caustic soda-free.

· Using more oven cleaner gets the job done faster.

This is false. In fact, it only increases your workload since you've have be left with more product to clean up. Only use the amount recommended on the product label. It's effective, you will reduce waste, and you will save on costs.

· Self-cleaning ovens clean themselves.

Yes, they will reduce food residue to ash, which you can wipe away. However, you will be required to put in some effort if you want it to be thoroughly clean and hygienic. For instance, some self-cleaning ovens have catalytic liners which gather food and grease spillages, which are then burnt off when the oven heats up. However, there can be grease and fat build-ups on the areas not covered by the liners. You can wipe them using the oven cleaner. You'll also need to sponge down the outside of your oven every now and then to keep it shiny and stain-free. Oven cleaning products will enable you to get your unit back to its original new standard.

· Ammonia is a miracle oven cleaner.

Ammonia has been touted to being able to clean every section of the house, so you may end up getting tempted to use it on your oven. Don't do it. Yes, it can clean, but there's the pungent odour to deal with. Its smell alone has the ability to cause irritation. This increases exponentially if you have breathing problems. However, you can still use it for the mirrors and glass. Get a fume-free oven cleaner.

· You can wipe up the oven cleaner immediately.

Don't be in a rush. Oven leaning products have chemicals that need time to react and break down all the dirt and grime in your unit. Some have disinfectant properties, and need sufficient time on the surfaces in order to kill pathogens. Stick to the time recommended on the label.

Oven Cleaner Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

· Does the oven need to be turned on in order for it to be cleaned?

No. In fact, it should be off. Note that you should also wait for it to cool before applying your oven cleaner. This also means you can clean it where it stands in the kitchen, or you can move it to a well-ventilated workspace. An added benefit is that cleaning your oven won't raise your power bills.

· How long does it take to clean the oven?

This depends on the kind of oven, and how much dirt has built up. A single oven usually takes 1 hour. A double oven plus hob can take 2 - 3 hours. 

· How often does the oven need to be cleaned?

This depends on how much you use it, and what you cook in it. An oven that is used regularly will need to be cleaned more frequently. It can require cleaning every 3 months to prevent a build-up of fat, grease and carbon deposits. On the other hand, if you only use your oven once a week, or only to "cook" ready-made meals, you can wait for 6 months before carrying out a deep clean. If you regularly hold dinner parties, or if you have a large family, you may need to clean it more often. If you rarely use your oven, you can clean it once a year to spruce up its working components.

· Can the oven cleaner be used on stainless steel cookware?

It’s primarily meant for the oven. It's not recommended for use on stainless steel cookware as many of the stainless steels in kitchens today contain a great deal of aluminium. Aluminium is covered in the next question.

· Why can't the oven cleaner be used on any aluminium?

It can cause it to pit and discolour. In case it gets on aluminium utensils and appliances, simply rinse it off. It won't penetrate the metal or remain on its surface, and your kitchenware will be safe for use. Also avoid using oven cleaning products on zinc, copper, tin, painted, damaged or non-stick surfaces.

· Can you use the oven cleaning product on the glass on the oven door?

It's not recommended. This is because most oven door glasses are tempered and can easily crack. Tempered glass is glass which has been processed by either thermal or chemical treatments. This makes it stronger than normal glass. If you want to use the oven cleaner on the glass, first confirm that it is safe for the particular glass type.

Tips On Using Oven Cleaning Products

In order to maintain your oven at optimum performance, and make the cleaning process easier, there are a couple of things you can do:

· Reduce the build-up of dirt and oil by cleaning up any food spills as soon as they occur. Get the stain while it's still fresh, but ensure the oven is cool enough for you to work on safely. If you wait for the stains to get heated and reheated they'll get ground in, making them more difficult to get rid of. 

· Prevent spill stains using a baking sheet or aluminium foil. Place the sheet on the rack below whatever you’re cooking for it to catch the food and grease spills. Do not line the bottom of the oven with the aluminium foil, as it could cause a fire. Alternatively, when something spills as you're soaking, sprinkle some salt on the affected area, close the door and resume cooking. After you're done cooking and have removed the food, wipe up the spill using a damp sponge. 

· Clean your oven regularly. When you close the oven door the icky mess will no longer be visible. You may be tempted to say to postpone the cleaning by a week. That week comes a month, and before you know it, half the year has gone by and your oven has never seen a cleaner. It's just been building up dirt. You’re just making things harder for yourself for when you'll be needed to wash it, plus you'll be putting the health of anyone eating food prepared in your oven at risk. Oven cleaning products have been designed to reduce the amount of scrubbing time and make the entire process easy on you.

· Remove and clean the oven shelves regularly, at least once a week. Note that you should never use your own cleaning products directly on its fan or heating element. This will prevent them from getting damaged and affecting their functionality.

· Consider investing in a towel hook. You don't have to hang your aprons, towels and oven gloves on the oven's handle. Get rid of all that clutter on your oven’s exterior and show off its sleek design. It also has the additional benefit of keeping those nasty germs that hide in your tea towels away from your cooking space.

· Handle oven cleaners with care. Ensure you've protected your skin using a long-sleeve top and rubber gloves, whether reusable or disposable. The gloves are for more than just your safety. You don't really want to get your hands covered with the dirt and grease from the bottom of your oven, do you? You should also consider getting goggles to protect your eyes.

· Wash the clothes you use while cleaning your oven before you re-wear them. The oven cleaning products can create fumes as they break down the dirt and grime. 

· Ensure you work in a well-ventilated area. Open up the windows of your kitchen as you clean. Also keep your children and pets well away from your workspace.
