The secret behind this miraculous technique

The secret of this trick lies in two phenomena: the degreasing power of white vinegar and the action of steam. When heated, the white vinegar produces steam inside the closed oven. This steam softens the dirt and grease that has built up. Additionally, white vinegar acts directly on the grease, “eating” it and speeding up its dissolution. After this treatment, a simple wipe with a sponge is enough to remove the dirt. There’s no need for vigorous scrubbing.

This technique works on all types of ovens, including brands like Bosch, Whirlpool, Samsung, and Siemens.

Finally, this method stands out for being natural. It doesn’t require any harsh chemicals, unlike traditional oven cleaners like Décap’Four. In other words, it’s an ecological, effective, and simple alternative for maintaining your appliance.

An even easier method

Since this trick relies on steam produced by vinegar, why not boil it directly? This will make the cleaning process even quicker. To do this, boil vinegar water in a kettle, then pour the mixture into a pot to place in the oven.

The hot steam infused with vinegar will soften the stubborn grease even faster. The added bonus is that this method also descalers your kettle, making it a two-in-one solution.

You can also replace white vinegar with lemon juice. The acidity of lemon offers a similar effect to vinegar.

Finally, in case of extreme dirt, ammonia can replace vinegar. However, this alternative is not highly recommended, as it is less natural and can leave a bad odor.
