Brilio.net - Burner is a component of a gas stove that can emit fire when turned on. This round-shaped tool functions as a means for gas and oxygen to meet so that fire can appear on the stove. Therefore, the burner is equipped with small cavities that can conduct heat evenly when the stove is turned on.
High intensity of stove usage can affect the burner. Often there is food or liquid residue from cooking that touches the burner. If left too long, the stain can turn into crust .
This crust has the potential to clog the holes in the burner, so that it can cause the stove flame to not light properly. In addition, dirty and black stove burners are at risk of producing red flames, not blue.
If you find a gas stove burner in the kitchen that is crusty, dirty, and black, clean it immediately. There is an easy and fast way to clean the stove burner, as shared by a YouTube user named Harish Alfatih.
"And we will use citric acid or what is commonly known among mothers as citron. And this is very cheap, only IDR 5,000 I can get three," said YouTube Harish Alfatih, quoted by BrilioFood on Wednesday (11/12).

For the method, pour water into the pan. After that, move it to the stove. Insert the stove burner into the pan and make sure the burner is completely submerged in water.
If so, sprinkle one sachet of citric acid into the water evenly. Then turn on the stove with low heat. Boil until the water boils or changes color.

After boiling, the water will turn greenish. If it is like this, turn off the stove. In the video, the color of the burner which was originally dirty and pitch black has become more faded.

To make it easier to scrub, let it sit until the water temperature starts to cool. Then scrub it using a brush. Sure enough, the crust, rust, and other dirt that sticks can be cleaned immediately in one scrub.
For the final step, wash the stove burner thoroughly with dishwashing liquid soap. Simply put the stove burner into the soapy water. Then rub it a little so that the fine dirt on the burner can be removed.
