Lightly spray white vinegar anywhere baking soda remains. The fizzing reaction helps loosen residue.
7. Final Wipe
Wipe everything clean with a damp microfiber cloth until no residue remains.
Cleaning the Oven Racks
Soak the racks in hot water with a few drops of dish soap for 1–2 hours.
Scrub with a non-abrasive sponge or brush.
Rinse and dry thoroughly before replacing them.
Tips
Wipe up spills as soon as the oven has cooled to prevent future buildup.
Clean your oven every 2–3 months, or more often if you use it frequently.
Avoid abrasive steel wool on enamel-coated ovens, as it can scratch the finish.
If your oven has a self-cleaning cycle, follow the manufacturer’s instructions instead of using baking soda inside during that cycle.
With regular cleaning, your oven can stay looking fresh and perform more efficiently without relying on harsh chemical cleaners.
