"When I wash it manually, I open the knife holder, because in between the blender glass and the knife holder, residue from the blender tends to remain behind & it sticks to the rubber too. That's what causes the blender to smell," wrote TikTok @LennySM.
"Just pour hot water on it. When I juice, my mother doesn't want to use a juice blender because it's complicated, so with a chili blender you can just make juice using hot water. There's no chili taste," said TikTok @LoveisYou.
"For me, I use cucumber and then blend it, then the aroma of the blender will disappear," said TikTok @asihmayoo.
