Tips For Taking Care Of Your Blender
Taking care of your home appliances will help them last longer and work better. A mistreated home appliance can break down quickly. If you want to avoid expensive repair bills or buying a new unit, check out these tips for keeping your blender in good condition.
Techniques For Blender Cleaning
Cleaning the Pitcher
The first step to cleaning an electrical appliance is to make sure that it is not plugged in. Then you can start cleaning everything.
Take the pitcher and wash thoroughly with hot water and soap. Rinse it well as you do not want any soap in your next smoothie. Don’t forget to wash the lid as well.
If possible, you should always remove the blades from the pitcher for easier cleaning.
Cleaning the Blender Base
To clean the blender base, simply wipe it down with a wet cloth or sponge. If necessary, use a mild cleaning agent to get rid of any tough food residue. Try not to get water inside the machine as this could damage the motor or electrical components.
Bonus Tips and Safety Precautions
To help dry, always store the pitcher upside down.
The faster you clean the blender after use, the easier it will be.
Do not use steel wool or metal bristle brushes as they could damage the surfaces of the blender.
Do no excessively heat the pitcher or add boiling water to a pitcher. This could cause it to crack or break.
Most blender pitchers are dishwasher safe.
Monitor the seal on the bottom of the pitcher for wear over time.
Using these helpful tips is perfect for keeping your blender in great shape and performing for years.
