How to Clean a Blender

Kitchen appliances such as a blender make it easier to prepare food and drink recipes. Blenders are designed for a quick clean up and can be easily unscrewed and reassembled. However, you should still use care when handling the parts during a clean up. Next time follow these steps to clean your blender.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions when cleaning the blender. Some blenders require hand cleaning and cannot be washed in a dishwasher.
2. Clean each part of the blender one by one. Remove the power cord from the socket and empty the blender. Unscrew all parts that can be removed.
3. Place the jar under running water to clear out all traces of food or liquid. Fill half of the jar with warm water and add a detergent solution. Place the lid on the jar and blend at high speed for 15 to 30 seconds. Rinse with clean warm water. For a deeper clean, let the detergent solution sit in the jar before rinsing.
4. Use a dry clean cloth to carefully wipe the blades or use a toothbrush to clean them with soapy water. To keep the blades sharp, avoid washing them in the dishwasher.
5. Spray glass cleaner on the base and trim of the blender. Rub off using a soft clean cloth or scrub with a soft toothbrush. Alternately, use a homemade cleaner of baking soda and water to clean the base and outside of the blender. Wash the jar with this mixture to remove odors.
6. Set the the clean blender components on a dish tray or towel and let air dry before reassembling the blender.
