Nobody in Brixton likes to use harsh or even dangerous chemicals in their kitchen, especially not in their oven! Here you can find some fantastic oven cleaning tips and methods that will deliver amazing results, without you needing to worry about the safety of your home or the care of the environment. Get the clean oven that you deserve with the following advice!

What will you need?
   Before you begin cleaning you need to make sure you have the right supplies. If you like the ease and convenience of buying your cleaning products then check your local supermarket in SW2 for oven cleaning products that don’t contain chemicals. Natural solvents such as citric acid make a great alternative to chemicals, and should be able to be found pretty easily. Alternatively, you can create your own products using vinegar and bicarbonate of soda. Along with your cleaning products, make sure to have clean scourers and sponges at the ready!

Where to begin?
   Start by removing your oven racks. Leave these to soak in a bowl of warm water and washing up liquid before starting on the oven. If you’re using a shop-bought cleaning product in Brixton, SW9 then follow the instructions carefully. If you’re using bicarbonate of soda then mix with water to create a thick paste. Use the paste to coat the inside of your oven and leave for a few hours. You should be able to gently buff the paste mixture to lift both the bicarbonate of soda and the mess inside your oven using a little warm water and elbow grease. The paste can be left overnight for particularly tough jobs.

How to get rid of tougher stains
   If your oven is still splattered or stained with burned mess and food then take some white vinegar and soak the mess for up to two hours. White vinegar has natural antibacterial properties, and should be able to tackle even the toughest of stains. Take a clean and damp cloth and wipe away the mess – try testing a small area to see whether it needs to sit for a little longer!

Creating an eco-friendly oven cleaner spray
   If your oven in SW2 isn’t suffering from dried-on mess, but you are looking for a suitable cleaning spray then why not make one yourself? Take two tablespoons of liquid soap and mix with warm water. Add a very small amount of bicarbonate of soda and pour into a spray bottle. Give your oven a quick spritz whenever you feel it needs a quick clean. Don’t forget to wipe away the product with warm water to remove residue!

Cleaning your oven racks
   Once you’ve finished cleaning your oven your oven racks in Brixton should have been soaking for some time. Take them out of the water and scrub. Most of the dirt and grime should be removed, but if not then try using your homemade oven cleaning spray, or create another paste of bicarbonate of soda and water to coat the rack before scrubbing it clean.

Keeping your oven clean
   Prevent mess by using a lower temperature to cook your food, as this will prevent splatter. Try cleaning your oven racks more regularly, and wipe up spills and stains as soon as they appear to prevent messes from getting burnt into your oven. You’ll find it much easier to tackle splashes and spills if you oven is still warm, but take care not to burn yourself! If you tackle the problem as soon as it appears, you’ll save much more time and effort later on!
