Brilio.net - The cleanliness of rubber and blender machines is often overlooked, even though both have an important role in maintaining the health of the food we consume. Dirty blender rubber and crusty machines can become a nest for bacteria and fungi, which can then contaminate the food being blended. As a result, food that looks healthy can become a source of unexpected diseases.

A dirty blender not only reduces the efficiency of the machine's performance, but also increases the risk of cross-contamination. Food residue that sticks to the rubber and other blender components can rot and become a breeding ground for harmful microorganisms. When we use an unclean blender, these microorganisms can transfer to the food we are processing, threatening our health and that of our family.

To avoid the risk of contamination, it is very important to thoroughly clean the blender after each use. But if it has already become crusty and black, you can clean it with a special trick like the one done by Instagram user @sekotak.rumah. Through one of the videos uploaded, he uses several simple ingredients, namely sodium percarbonate.

As reported by brilio.net from Instagram @sekotak.rumah on Tuesday (12/31), the first thing to do is remove the blender rubber from the machine. After that, place it in a container or bowl. Also put in the crusty blender machine that you want to clean. In the video, Instagram user @sekotak.rumah inserts the bottom part of the blender eye which is often overlooked.

Well, after inserting, immediately pour the sodium percarbonate powder. Then, pour hot water until all parts are completely submerged. If so, let it sit and soak the blender components until the water temperature is cold. The liquid will make all the crust, mold, and even moss that sticks to the rubber and blender machine fall off by itself.

After that, lift and scrub gently with a brush if there are still stubborn stains. If so, wipe the rubber and blender machine with a cloth or tissue until dry. Then reinstall it on the blender body. That way, the clean blender is ready to be used again.
