How to clean a commercial oven?
What's the best oven cleaning method?
Tackling dirty ovens/cookers and cutting through grease can be one of the most difficult & time consuming tasks carried out in the kitchen.
There are various degreasing liquids & powders available from a variety of manufacturers & suppliers which will make this job a LOT easier. Let's take a look at what Trichem recommends.
When you want to clean an over, you don't want to spend hours doing it. Trichem's Oven Clenz is a great choice, as it is perfect for the rapid removal of grease and charred food debris from both the interior & exterior of the oven.
Oven Clenz comes ready to use in both 5L & 750ml spray bottles. Depending on how often you need to clean an oven, you can choose between a traditional liquid spray trigger or a foam spray trigger - which gives the product a 'clinging' quality, ideal for the interior of the oven.
The oven foam cleaner is also a great choice for the cleaning of the following equipments:
- deep-fat fryers
- extraction hoods & filters
- skillets
- waffle baskets etc.
How to clean a commercial oven
- Heat your oven to a 'hand hot' temperature - not too hot as you will be working on the heated surfaces, and the product will simply evaporate when sprayed onto a surface which is too hot.
- Turn off the oven.
- Spray the surfaces to be cleaned & leave to dwell for 10-20 minutes dependant on the soiling.
- Simply wipe/rinse off with a clean damp cloth ensuring product is removed - Stubborn deposits may require scouring.
Things to remember when oven cleaning:
- Always ensure the area is well ventilated.
