HOMEMADE CLEANING SOLUTIONS
 Remove Scale or Hard-Water Film from Tea/Water Kettles:
Add ½ cup of white vinegar to each quart of water and boil the mixture in
the kettle for about 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
Lime deposits, or lime Scales, are common in hard (not softened) water,
especially when it is abundant in naturally occurring calcium and magnesium.
Frequency of de-scaling depends on frequency of use and degree of water
hardness.
Remove Scale or Hard-Water Film from AutoDrip and other Coffeemakers:
Add about a tablespoon of white vinegar to a pot of water and let it run
through its cycle (without a filter in place).
Repeat at least once.
Then run a couple (or more) cycles using clean, cold water, until the taste
of vinegar is gone. Frequency of de-scaling depends on frequency of use and
degree of water hardness.
Clean Copper or Brass:
Mix a bit of vinegar, a bit of salt and a bit of flour to make a paste. Rub
well, then rinse.
Sanitize Utensils:
First wash utensils with hot sudsy clean water. Rinse thoroughly with clear
water.
Mix a sanitizing solution consisting of ¼ cup of chlorine bleach per
gallon of potable water. Bleach should contain a minimum of 5.25% sodium
hypochlorite.
To disinfect, soak utensils completely in this solution for at least 1
minute. Then allow to air dry.
Do not let metal pots, pans and other utensils sit in bleach for much
longer, or they will discolor from the chemical reaction. And do not mix
bleach with other cleaners.
If potable water is not available, disinfect it by bring it to a rolling
boil and keeping it there for at least 1 minute (3 minutes in high
altitudes).
If using a dishwasher which first needs to be sanitized, run the empty
dishwasher through the wash-rinse-sanitize cycle three times to flush the
water lines and assure that the dishwasher is cleaned and sanitized
internally before washing equipment and utensils in it.
Note: Porous utensils, such as wood, plastic, terracotta, etc., that
may have soaked in contaminants should not be sanitized or re-used. When in
doubt, throw them out.
HOW TO CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL COOKWARE
To remove manufacturer or price stickers from cookware: Soak the
area with warm water, then scrape off with your fingernail or with a plastic
spatula.
When using a pan for the first time: Wash it well with soapy warm
water and dry thoroughly.
Whitish or chalkish deposits inside pan: Remove calcium deposits by
boiling water with some white vinegar, allowing your pan to cool, then
washing it with warm, soapy water. Help prevent white spots and pitting by
adding salt to your cookware only after the water has reached a boil.
Burnt food is stick in pan: Cover the stuck foodstuffs with warm
soapy water, allow to soak for some time, then boil for 10 minutes, allow it
to cool, then use a soft cloth, or a nylon scourer or scraper if stubborn,
and warm, soapy water.
Still not clean out of the dishwasher: You might select a Pre-wash
cycle if your pan's instructions indicate it is safe to clean in the
dishwasher.
Spills or overflows: Wash or clean the exterior before placing it
again over heat.
Filled pan left to cool on stove and lid won't come off: Warm the
pan, then twist the lid to remove it.
Left empty on heated surface: Allow it to cool slowly; do not immerse
it in cold water.
Stainless pan was left on heated surface, liquid has dried and yellow or
blue streaks appear: On polished stainless, use a metal cleaner, such as
Wenol or Red Bear, with a soft cloth. On satin stainless, use a nylon
scourer, such as Scotch-Brite.
Scratches on surface after washing repeatedly: Change your cleaning
product to a gentler kind, such as Bon Ami.
Cleaners not recommended for stainless surfaces: Bleach or ammonia
should not be used on stainless steel.
(Adapted from manufacturer guides.)
HOW TO REMOVE PRICE STICKER
First, use your fingernail to remove as much of the sticker as
possible. Then place a small amount of the appropriate solvent (from the
list below) on the sticker. Or soak a small cloth or paper towel or cotton
swab, and place it on top of the sticker. Let it soak in for a minute or
two, then rub the remaining sticker off. Repeat the process if residue
remains.
For metal, glass, china and hard plastic: Use cooking oil, peanut
butter, margarine (or any oily food), mineral oil, baby oil, heated vinegar,
denatured alcohol, WD-40®, Goo Gone®, Goof-Off®, or a similar
product. Wash item with
soap afterwards. (To remove remaining residue, you can also try dabbing
with the sticky side of a transparent tape, or rubbing off with your thumb.)
Also for glass: Use nail polish remover. Wash item with soap
afterwards.
Also for metal: Heat with a hair dryer for about 30 seconds, scrape
off, then soak and remove as above if residue remains. Wenol metal cleaner
works well on removing residue from stainless steel.
For cardboard: Use rubbing alcohol, denatured alcohol, mineral
spirits, or a similar alcohol-based product. Soak and gently scrape off.
Blowing hot air for a short time with a hair dryer will loosen most glues.
For wood not used with food: Use furniture polish or any of the
solvents indicated above for metal, glass, china and hard plastic. On unfinished
wood, you can first loosen the glue on labels by briefly heating with a hair
dryer.
For wood used with food: Use mineral oil or heated vinegar. On unfinished
wood, you can first loosen the glue on labels by briefly heating with a hair
dryer.
For painted surfaces: First test a solvent in an inconspicuous area.
Be careful:
- Using the wrong solvent can damage the item.
- If you're unsure, first test an inconspicuous area.
- Always carefully read the label of any commercial solvent.
- Use adequate ventilation with odoriferous solvents. |
