A Guide to How to Clean Your Oven Naturally Cleaning the oven turns out to be one of the biggest nightmares in someone's live. All the grease and different food particles in there, become practically stuck after some time, and no matter how much you scrub and clean, they will just stay there until you give up. And many people practically give up and leave their ovens to look dirty and full of grease and germs. But if you're a stubborn person, you shouldn't give up before you've tried everything. And this is why I've created this guide to help you clean your oven naturally. You will notice, that the natural cleaners are a lot better than the store bought ones. Unplug the oven. The first step is actually obvious, but it still needs to be said. You can't clean your oven if it's still plugged in, because then you can be electrocuted, and this is never pleasant. In many cases this even ends up fatally. So, first unplug, and then prepare to clean. Prepare the cleaner. The most important part of your oven cleaning, is using the right cleaning solution. The stores sell many different cleaners, but most of them are either toxic or just not strong enough to get through the grease. This is why the best solution is to make your own natural oven cleaner. The only ingredients you need are white vinegar and baking soda. The baking soda can be diluted with some water, and the vinegar works best by itself. The baking soda is perfect for cleaning grease and different hard to clean stains, because of its corrosive qualities. And the white vinegar is one of the strongest disinfectants in the world, so if you want something to be germ free, don't forget to use it.
