BURNT GRIDDLE, IT TAKES A MOMENT TO CLEAN IT – YOU ONLY NEED THESE 2 INGREDIENTS

Correct and regular maintenance allows any appliance to last longer and be perfectly efficient. This also applies to the iron: in addition, if it works correctly, it saves on energy consumption.

It happens to all of us housewives that we are bothered by the burnt iron. To make it as good as new again, all you need is a few simple tricks and a couple of natural ingredients that we all have at home.

Here’s how to clean the cooktop, boiler and outer surface.

BURNT IRON: THE MAGIC INGREDIENT THAT LEAVES YOU LOOKING LIKE NEW

To remove dirt and limescale and polish burnt iron, the magic ingredient is vinegar.

La placa metálica, es decir, la parte que está en contacto con la ropa que se va a planchar, debe limpiarse con regularidad. Una suela sucia o quemada puede dañar las prendas.

The plate can be polished easily and quickly using a solution of vinegar and coarse salt. When finished, simply wipe off the remaining salt with a damp cloth.

With this method, the board will shine like new again.

Iron: How to clean the boiler and outer surface

Maintenance of the iron should not be limited to cleaning the sole. You should also carefully clean the outer surface and the boiler.

The outside of the appliance should be cleaned in the same way as the plate is polished. Prepare a solution of vinegar and water and gently wipe the outer surface. Remove any remaining salt with a damp cloth and dry with a dry cloth.

For the boiler, the procedure is different. You’ll need to fill half with water and the other half with vinegar. Turn on the iron and let the steam escape: this will remove the limescale from the boiler.
