Brilio.net - Blenders have many functions, from smoothing chili sauce, cooking spices, to fruits for smoothies. Like other kitchen appliances, their cleanliness needs to be maintained so that they remain comfortable to use. However, the part that is often cleaned is usually only the blender container or glass, while the body of the machine is often neglected.
If used routinely, the body of the blender machine can accumulate dirt that eventually turns into blackish crust. This makes the appearance of the blender look dull and poorly maintained. Many people hesitate to clean this part because they are worried about the machine getting wet.
As a solution, cleaning agents such as baking soda and vinegar are often used to remove stains on the body of the blender machine. However, not everyone has both of these ingredients at home. A trick from a netizen on the YouTube account Wiwit Kurniawan67 offers a simpler alternative method using only one easy-to-find ingredient.
"This blender is very dirty because it is rarely cleaned. If it was cleaned immediately after each use, there would not be this much scale," he said, quoted by brilio.net from YouTube Wiwit Kurniawan67 on Saturday (15/3).

First, remove the body from the blender machine so that there is no short circuit or interference in the electrical channel. You can use the help of a screwdriver to remove the bolts that hold the blender body.

Then, if the blender body is separated from the machine, immediately put it in a basin filled with water. To make the cleaning process more effective, you can add bar soap to scrub the body of the blender machine. YouTube account owner Wiwit Kurniawan67 only scrubbed it with a cloth.
If the blender body is free from stains, rinse it with clean water until there is no more soap left. Next, dry the blender body with a chamois. Finally, just reassemble the blender body with the machine as before.

So, is this trick for cleaning the body of the blender machine really simple?
Tricks for using a blender so it doesn't break quickly.1. Use according to capacity.
Do not overfill the blender, especially for hard or fibrous ingredients. Overloading can overload the motor and cause premature wear and tear.
2. Cut the ingredients into small pieces.
Before putting it in the blender, the food should be cut into small pieces. This helps the blades work more effectively and reduces the load on the motor.
3. Add liquid while pureeing solid ingredients.
If the ingredients you are blending are quite solid or dry, add a little water, milk or oil to make the process smoother and the motor not work too hard.
4. Do not use the blender for too long at once.
Continuously operating the blender for a long time can cause the motor to heat up and wear out quickly. It is better to use it for short periods with a few seconds break before continuing.
5. Make sure the blender is properly installed.
Before turning it on, make sure the blender container is properly locked into the machine. This prevents leaks and avoids the risk of the blades not turning properly.
