Encrusted oven and don’t know how to clean it? Steam is the one for you

even more encrusted dirt, burned grease and a more time-consuming and complex cleanup?

Unfortunately, putting off oven cleaning is never a convenient choice, but by using the right tools, toil, sweat and physical effort become only bad memories.
The secret? Steam and in this article we reveal why!

Why does oven get dirty so easily?

Simple, fast and requires little attention: thanks to these features, the oven is one of the most widely used appliances, but also the one that gets dirty the fastest:

• during cooking, fats and oils vaporize and solidify on walls, glass and grills;
• sauces and condiments splatter and burn, creating dark spots;
• sugars and starches caramelize, leaving resistant fouling.

The combination of all these elements generates a tenacious mix of dirt and odors, which if not cleaned immediately, continues to accumulate, leading to increasingly hard and resistant fouling.

In these cases, the only solution to remove all the dirt without damaging the oven and without using hours of physical effort and massive amounts of detergent is to choose to use steam.

Why steam is the most effective (and natural) method

If you’ve wasted time, fatigue and stress cleaning your oven until now, it’s time to discover an important truth: all you need to effectively clean your oven is water ... at the right temperature!

Steam, which is nothing but water at 150°C is, in fact, the best tool for cleaning the oven because it dissolves grease, oil and charred residue:

• without the use of abrasive sponges that could ruin the oven walls, leading to hundreds of euros in damage;
• avoiding the use of harsh chemicals that could contaminate dishes with substances harmful to health when cooking them.

How to clean the oven with steam step by step

In addition to being very effective, steam oven cleaning is also very easy:

1. first, empty the oven by removing baking sheets and accessories. You can clean them separately, again with steam;

2. steam the inner walls. With the concentrated jet nozzle, direct steam to the most encrusted areas. It only takes a few seconds of exposure to soften even the toughest dirt;

3. wait a few minutes for action. Close the door and let the steam do its work for 5-10 minutes.

4. open and dry, using a microfiber cloth: the dirt will come off effortlessly, leaving the oven shiny and streak-free.

5. with the small brush or steam lance, also go over the door glass and knobs. No risk of scratches or chemical residues.

A green choice: the benefits of steam cleaning

Steam is a 100% natural solution. Unlike many oven cleaning products, which contain caustics or solvents and can be irritating and toxic, steam does not contaminate surfaces or food:

• being water-based;
• being odorless or fragrance-free.

In addition, avoiding the use of detergents also decreases plastic consumption, which is a double benefit to the environment.

In addition to the green component, however, cleaning the oven with steam also offers more practical advantages precisely in terms of cleaning, saving time, effort and money.

Using steam to clean the oven you can:

• opt for a green choice;
• clean deeply even in difficult places, reaching into corners and crevices where the cloth will not arrive;
• remove the toughest encrustations, effortlessly and without brushes;
• eliminate odors and bacteria by sanitizing surfaces.
