Secrets to spotless burners: Budget-friendly cleaning tips
Cleaning gas stove burners can seem like an endless task, but with a few simple methods, you can achieve great results without a big expense. The key is choosing the right products.
Gas stoves are popular, but cleaning them can be challenging. Grease and food residue often accumulate on the burners, affecting not only the look but also the functionality of the appliance. Clogged nozzles can make it difficult to ignite the burners, which increases gas consumption and affects our wallets. So, how do you clean the burners to avoid problems?
Regular cleaning as the key to success
Useful products for cleaning burners are likely already in your kitchen. With just a few tricks, your gas stove can shine with cleanliness without needing harsh, expensive chemicals that may impact your health.
Not everyone knows that white vinegar effectively removes burn marks. Simply spray the burners generously, wait 15 minutes, and then wipe them with a damp cloth.
Alternative methods for tough stains
If the stains are severe, the above method might not be enough. In such cases, disassemble the burners, place them in the sink, fill it with water, add a few drops of dish soap and a cup of white vinegar. After soaking for about an hour, scrub the burners and let them dry before reassembling.
Another simple way to remove stubborn grime is using baking soda and lemon. Combined with hot water, they effectively dissolve grease and food residue. Simply soak the burners in the baking soda solution for a few hours, and the grime will almost come off on its own. Lemon juice, thanks to its citric acid content, helps in removing grease. After removing the burners from the solution, you can additionally wipe them with a cut lemon to remove any remaining contaminants.
