Brilio.net - Pots often get dirty, especially the bottom, which easily turns black due to exposure to stove fire. These burnt spots are difficult to clean because they have become caked. If left untreated, the pot can be damaged and unusable. Many people use various cleaning agents to solve this problem.
In addition to dish soap, vinegar is often chosen to soften burnt crust. However, the strong smell of vinegar makes some people reluctant to use it. As an alternative, you can try the method used by YouTube user TERA TEKNIK.
At the beginning of the video, it shows him relying on dish soap , baking soda, and a type of drink to clean his pans.
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube TERA TEKNIK on Wednesday (11/20), one type of drink in question is a soda drink. To clean 1 pan, he appears to use 1 bottle of soda measuring 390 ml.
"We immediately pour the Coca-Cola into the bowl," he said.

After that, pour 1 tbsp of baking soda into the bowl. Stir until the baking soda dissolves with the soda.
"It does foam right away, but it will subside on its own," he said further.

Once the foam has subsided, immediately add dish soap to the cleaning solution. Stir again until all ingredients are perfectly mixed.

Once it is mixed perfectly, the cleaning fluid can be used. To make it easy to use, this netizen deliberately poured the cleaning fluid into a spray bottle.

Fill the bottle and close it. Spray the cleaning fluid directly onto the bottom of the pan that is full of burnt crust.
"Spray evenly and let it sit for about 10 minutes," he said.

Reported from the chemistrycachet.com page, carbonated drinks have acidic properties that can soften crust to rust. Therefore, it is not surprising that carbonated drinks are deliberately added to the pan cleaning fluid.
After letting it sit for 10 minutes, immediately scrub the pan using a wire sponge. Without the need for extra effort, the burnt crust on the bottom of the pan immediately disappears without a trace.

Finally, rinse the pan with clean water. The appearance of the bottom of the pan which was originally black will change to be clean and shiny again.
