Getting an mini oven is easy, but maintaining it is a difficult task for most people. Sometimes caterers make mistakes and splash some food on the oven. Some are not even watchful enough to notice that their food is boiling over. If a mini oven is not cleaned up on time, it may end up having a pile of grease built up on the chassis of your mini oven as well as causing some malfunctions such as electric shocks, rusting parts, etc.
Also, the more food spilled on the oven and the longer you leave it, the more difficult it is to remove. Thus it is advisable to clean your mini oven on a daily basis especially in the mornings before you start cooking.
In this article, we will show you some easy and smart ways of cleaning your burnt mini oven without damaging it.

Steps to Clean Up Your Mini Oven
When you have all these requirements, you can then proceed with the following steps;
- 1Unplug your mini oven to avoid electrocution: Since you’ll be using water for the cleanup, it doesn’t make sense to keep your mini oven plugged in while cooking.
- 2Dampen the soft cloth with warm water and soap: This makes it easier for tough stains to come out of your mini oven while cleaning it.
- 3Use the damp soft cloth to clean the interior. By doing this you should be able to remove any food debris as well as cobwebs, insects, geckos, pests, etc. that may be within the interior of your mini oven.
- 4Pour your baking soda into a bowl of water to form a thick paste. If the paste becomes too dry when you apply it, just add a little bit of water to make it soft.
- 5Apply the paste formed in step 4 onto the surfaces stained with grease. If the stains are tough, then leave it to soften for some time.
- 6Make your green scrubbing pad moist with water. Use the pad and baking soda to scrub the surfaces.
- 7For a more effective cleaning, you can use Clean Magic Eraser instead of a scrubbing pad.
- 8Keep scrubbing until the stains are cleaned up. You may apply more baking soda paste as required.
- 9If the stains are really tough, you can apply some white vinegar on the stubborn part and leave it for a while.
- 10When the stains are removed, wipe the interior by using a soft cloth dampened with soapy water.
- 11After cleaning allow the interior to dry up before using it again.
Taking these steps to clean up your mini oven is actually easy. Since stains stick harder to the chassis of a mini oven when you leave it for long, it is much easier if you clean it up every weekend.
