Some appliances are used to clean our things, but I’ve learned that it is just as important to clean the appliances that do all that work! Here’s a tutorial on how to quick clean a dishwasher. We eat at home often, so we acquire a lot of dirty dishes. Our dishwasher gets loaded, run, and emptied once daily. I could see some build up happening around the edges and knew it was time to give it a quick clean.
How to Clean a Dishwasher
- First, I shook some baking soda in the bottom of the empty dishwasher and let it sit for a few hours.
- Next, spray vinegar on top of the baking soda and in some of the nooks and crannies of dishwasher.
- With minimal scrubbing, the gunk should come right up as you wipe with a wet cloth or rag. You will be surprised how much gunk lies in the thing you think is getting your dishes clean! I learned this when I thoroughly cleaned my washing machine!
- After the inside was wiped down, I ran the hottest cycle using vinegar instead of a detergent pack that I normally use.
This chore is super simple, and something that can be done often. Our dishwasher looks like new again! I love cleaning with vinegar and baking soda. It’s inexpensive, safe, and it gets the job done. I hope you enjoyed how to quick clean a dishwasher. XO
