How to clean the burners of a gas stove: an easy way

The burners of a gas hob should be cleaned regularly. During the cooking process, they become soiled with food particles and burnt fat, which contributes to an unpleasant odour.

Food residues get clogged in the cutters and nozzles, and the burners start to burn worse. Informacion magazine has explained how to clean the burners quickly and effectively.

Experts recommend cleaning the burners at least once a week. Dirt can clog the burner openings, reducing the efficiency of the appliance. The first step is to switch off the gas and electricity supply - this is a vital step to prevent accidents.

Remove the burners and covers to allow unobstructed access to areas that need cleaning.

Experts say that plain soap and water is the most effective way to clean the hob. Pour liquid soap and detergent into hot water. If the burners are very greasy or have a lot of burnt food on them, you can add a little vinegar or baking soda to the mixture.

Immerse the burners in the solution and wait for at least 20-30 minutes. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the surface. For more difficult areas, you can use an old toothbrush.

After cleaning the burners, rinse them well with clean water to remove any residual soap solution. It is important to dry them completely before re-installing them, as residual moisture can cause problems with ignition.

Use a damp cloth and the cleaning solution to wipe the base where the burners are located. Avoid getting liquids into the gas connections. Light the burners to make sure they are working properly.

By the way, lemon juice will help to remove stains on the surface of the hob on the burners. If the stains are fresh, simply wipe them with half a lemon. Squeeze lemon juice on old stains and leave for 5 minutes. Read more about this and other life hacks for cleaning the kitchen in the article.
