Aussie mum’s 60-second trick to clean your oven – with no scrubbing or harsh chemicals
"I have never been able to get mine so clean ever before!"
By Eliza Scanlan
Love having a clean oven – but hate using all the harsh chemicals and non-stop scrubbing needed to get it that way?
Well we have just the thing for you.
An Aussie mum has shared her ingenious hack for cleaning her oven racks – and all you need is a bath, some washing powder and around a minute of your time!
“I have never been able to get mine so clean ever before!”
Sharing the trick on the awesome Mums Who Clean Facebook group, the mum revealed that she simply placed a towel at the bottom of her bathtub, put the oven racks on top, filled the tub with hot water and then poured three 3 capfuls of dissolved laundry washing powder over it – a process that takes 60 seconds. She then left it overnight – and the next morning, her racks were perfectly clean.
Another mum on the group gave the method a whirl and said it gave her the best results she’s ever achieved.
Sharing photos of her transformed oven, the mum wrote: “To the lady that posted about cleaning her oven racks in the bath tub with washing powder, THANK YOU!!!
“I have never been able to get mine so clean ever before! I cannot thank you enough for making this daunting task so simple 🤗!
Let the bath do the work for you overnight!
Revealing her technique, she wrote: “Place old towel in bottom of bath tub (to protect it), lay oven racks on top, turn on hot tap, dissolve 3 scoops of washing powder (I used Biozet but original poster used Homebrand) in a jug with hot water, once dissolved add to bath, continue adding hot water until oven racks are covered, leave sit overnight & then in morning wipe over with steel wool and rinse in cold water. 🤗 Done ✅!”
Another mum shared a photo of her transformed oven after using the bathtub method and described the results as ‘oven porn’!
Genius! We are SO giving this a go …
