How to clean a microwave: from lemons to vinegar, discover the expert cleaning methods to get your microwave spotless
January 06, 2023 - 09:17 GMT Chloe Best Cleaning your microwave can seem like a laborious task, meaning it is never at the top of our to do list. However, keeping on top of food spillages and splatters frequently is the best way to maintain your microwave and prevent stubborn stains or bad odours – and it is a lot easier than you may think.
Similarly to cleaning with lemon, all you need to do is add two tablespoons of white vinegar to a jug containing 500ml of water, and microwave on full power for five minutes. Carefully remove the jug when the time is up, and then use a sponge to wipe the inside of your microwave, starting from the top and down to the bottom, not forgetting the inside of the door and turntable.
How to remove bad smells from your microwave Strong food smells and bad odours can linger in the microwave after cooking, so it's best to try and get rid of them quickly. For light odours this can be as simple as leaving the door open, or using the baking soda method above to both clean and deodorise the microwave in one step.
