Brilio.net - Have you ever smelled an unpleasant odor when you opened the refrigerator door? Of course, this unpleasant smell makes you uncomfortable and will contaminate the food stock in the refrigerator.
After investigating, this unpleasant odor can arise due to several factors. Such as food stored in the refrigerator that has rotted, the temperature conditions are unstable, the air filter is damaged, and the inside of the refrigerator is rarely cleaned.
When this happens, a number of people deliberately sprinkle coffee on the shelves in the refrigerator. Reporting from thespruce.com, the absorbent substances in coffee are effective in absorbing unpleasant odors in the refrigerator.
But if you don't want your coffee stock to go to waste, you can copy the method shown by Instagram user @safaralles. In the video upload, this netizen can be seen replacing coffee with another kitchen ingredient.
Reported by BrilioFood from the Instagram account @safaralles on Friday (21/6), one kitchen ingredient used is baking soda. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 8,500 ml of warm water. Stir until the baking soda is completely dissolved.

Then dip a rag into the cleaning solution that has been made. Wring it out and then rub the cloth over the entire surface of the shelves in the refrigerator. Do it slowly and thoroughly, OK?

It can be seen that the inside of the refrigerator, which was initially filled with stains, instantly shines in one swipe. Apart from looking shiny, you can no longer smell the bad smell in the refrigerator.

The reason is, as reported by marthastewart.com, the unpleasant, acidic odor will be neutralized by the pH in the baking soda. If all parts of the refrigerator have been wiped evenly, let it sit for a few minutes to dry completely.
Once dry, all food and drink stocks can be immediately stored in the refrigerator. Make sure there are no spills or dirt in the refrigerator, okay? So that the refrigerator does not smell when opened.
