After a good spring cleaning, there can be still be some areas that need a little touching up. Over the next few weeks I'm going to highlight an area or object(s) to clean - this is in order to motivate myself and hopefully you too!
So this week, it's SMALL APPLIANCES. Maybe it's just me, but all of a sudden I noticed that all of my small appliances have crusties on them. YUCK! So I decided to clean them yesterday. I took them all out of the cupboards and put them on the counters. I sprayed them all down with Basic H2 - it's non-toxic so it is PERFECT for appliances that come in contact with food. Let the H2 sit for a minute or two and wipe clean with a super microfiber cleaning cloth. I also wiped the cords with my cloth - they were gross too.
While the H2 was soaking off the crusties on my small appliances, I started cleaning my coffee pot. This is the method that I used:

While the H2 was soaking off the crusties on my small appliances, I started cleaning my coffee pot. This is the method that I used:
- one part white vinegar to two parts cold water - run through coffee pot (leave basket in the pot, but take out coffee grounds)
- dump water/vinegar solution down sink
- run 3 cycles of plain water through coffee pot
- wash all coffee parts (that are washable) through the dishwasher
- spray Basic H2 on coffee machine and wipe clean
And the CLEAN and SHINY afters:
Anyone with me? Want to clean your appliances?
Your after pictures are beautiful -- so shiny! I cleaned my oven the other day (first time in FOREVER!) but I'll bet my toaster and my microwave could really use a scrub. Thanks for the inspiration.
