A blender is one of the familiar and indispensable household appliances in the family kitchen. However, not every housewife cleans the blender properly, sometimes cleaning it through the loudspeaker, leading to a buildup of bacteria, mold and reducing the lifespan as well as affecting the effectiveness of future uses.
Quickly pour a blender with cold water
This is a common mistake that is easy to make when some housewives only use cold water to quickly pour the blender. This method cannot completely remove food waste, especially blending smoothies with milk, butter, nuts or oily ingredients.
The amount of food left over, even very small, will quickly become an ideal environment for bacteria and mold to grow, causing unpleasant odors and posing a potential risk of food poisoning.
Not cleaning the bottom and cluster of the blade thoroughly
The bottom of the grinder, where the knife handle cluster and rubber pads are installed, is the area that is most difficult to clean and most easily overlooked. In particular, the food residue is easily stuck under the edges of the blade and in the groove of the cushion.
If this part is not cleaned regularly, it will easily become a bacterial lump, causing cross-contamination for further grinding. Over time, the accumulated debris can erode the cushioning ring, causing leakage and affecting the performance of the machine.
Use strong detergents and hard-washing household appliances
With the desire to quickly clean the blender, housewives often choose to use dishwashingwaters with strong detergents or use metal handmade handmade gomes to rub inside.
This method is also very easy to damage and scratch the machines, and in the long run, strong chemicals can also erode and reduce the life of the machines.
Do not dry it thoroughly before removing the cabinet
Another common mistake that housewives often make is not drying the grinder thoroughly or leaving it completely dry after washing.
Keeping humidifiers inside the tree, especially in areas that are difficult to clean like the bottom of the tree and around the blade, will create favorable conditions for mold and bacteria to grow. This not only causes a mold smell but also directly affects the health of the family.
