Installed on the worktop, your toaster must be maintained regularly. However, it’s not always so easy. Crumbs accumulate with each use and make the task more difficult. A simple gesture could change the situation.
Are you also trying as best you can to blow away the few remaining crumbs to present a toaster as new? Shaking it in all directions annoys you the most? We understand you. This is why an extremely practical and extremely effective tip deserves to be known. Everything you need is in your bathroom.
As the strange #toasterbath trend gains momentum on TikTok, it was time to reveal the most recommended way to clean your toaster. In fact, many Internet users today advise unplugging your toaster then soaking it in water in order to eliminate all the residue present inside the grills. Obviously, this practice should be banned urgently if you want to keep a device in working order and avoid any risk of electrocution. We know that water and electrical appliances do not mix well.
A completely different, much safer tip is to dust off your household accessory using a hairdryer. By activating the most powerful blowing function, you will allow all the crumbs to be placed in the receptacle located below the toaster, in just a few seconds. In addition to avoiding slipping your fingers, you will not have to use any abrasive products or dangerous liquids.
As for cleaning the crumb catchers, you can, for their part, extract them from the toaster, then pass them with soapy water. Be sure to dry them well, so as not to leave any trace of humidity and risk the crumbs sticking to the walls. Finally, regarding the exterior of your toaster, take a soft microfiber cloth, also soaked in soap and water, and scrub away any visible dirt. Dry everything and that’s it!
