These are great instructions for normal (daily cleaning). This is NOT "deep cleaning" when the fryer has been used by teenagers and not cleaned in a month.
Seriously…mine has an overhead heating element like the one shown and the metal hood over the coil is coated with grease. The only solution I have seen is getting a thin bottle brush to get in there. But then you are just dipping your brush at the end in clean water to try and get all of the residue out.
Just to let everybody know one of these was given to me that was absolutely the most disgusting vile thing super filthy and I figured I had to clean it and it works perfectly now and the air comes out of the back like it was brand new I clean the fan the coils and the whole entire inside I'm fixing to make a video to show you how to do it
I wonder if you can put aluminum foil under the basket and form another catch basket for drippings? And after cooking something , you just toss the aluminum foil. I hate cleaning up 5 or 6 places after cooking.
Drying kills many germs, but do remove the gunked buildup first. Non-stick surfaces are easiest to deal with, so do give those air fryers affirmative consideration when purchasing. 👍
My thoughts exactly, there are too many areas where food can splatter, collect, and nothing about an air fryer looks better than using a conventional oven
@@captinbeyond Air Fryer heats up quicker (so it’s more time saving and convenient to use), it works better for certain foods (fries come out better in an air fryer as do vegetables), and a lot of them have presets so if you don’t know what temp you need to cook it in the oven you can put it on in the preset for the air fryer.
@@captinbeyond try a Cosori. Easy to clean, even the heating element. Basket is easy to clean, soap and water, like any other pot you would cook with. Yes, there will be some buildup-kinda like your oven looks when you haven’t cleaned it in a while, but if you wipe the heating element area every time you clean up, it will stay very clean and germ free. The heat kills all the germs anyway. Try one. We love ours. Cooked a whole chicken-rotisserie style- in less than an hour. Watch Fabulessly Frugal and Cooking with Doug on TH-cam.
Gourmia Airfryer Oven - I bought it 2022 christmas. NOTHING gets the cooked on grease off anything - it adheres to the metal and the inner top area between the 2 heating elements is almost impossible to get to. Of course we tried non abrasive scrubbers, bar keepers, baking soda, norwex rags. I called their CS rep and he laughed at me and told they don't help with how to clean. I thought because it was "stainless steel" I wouldn't have this problem. HA! The basket eats up the scrubber. How do you scrub the medal over the fan without the product getting in through the vents to the fan. Yes, I'm angry.😠
Just put fairy liquid and water in it then let it heat up for 5/10 mins at 180 then rinse out. Give a quick wash with fairy liquid and a soft sponge then that’s it. Only really need to do it once a week, or cleaning something stinky eg fish or scampi. 👍🏻
Wait. People are using air fryers without cleaning them between cooks? It's like a pan. Do you use a pan over and over without cleaning? Anyway, I do these things after every use. I was hoping for "deep cleaning" tips. These are just regular cleaning tips (for anyone sensible).
Who wants to clean it as soon as your meal is ready to eat? personally, I add water in the pan (just after I remove the cooked food) and put it back to re heat for 1 or 2 minutes. Then, it is so much easier to clean it later on!
People listen to me you need a wire brush or a flexible one same procedure use hot water and soap and let dry better yet a degreaser would work well also.

Exactly ‼️‼️🤦🏽♂️
We want advice on HEAVY DUTY CLEANING, not this pansy cleaning on a brand new air fryer. We need industrial strength help.
😆

Literally just got an air fryer today the first time. I'm watching cleaning vids before I start cooking.😆
haha me too!
Same 🤣
Same here. 😄
Yup same
cook for 30 minutes , clean for 3 hours each time
How do you clear the metal behind the heater and fan?
How to remove the grease on the heating element or coil?
Just to let everybody know one of these was given to me that was absolutely the most disgusting vile thing super filthy and I figured I had to clean it and it works perfectly now and the air comes out of the back like it was brand new I clean the fan the coils and the whole entire inside I'm fixing to make a video to show you how to do it
Where's the video
I place foil at the bottom, it’s been a game changer. the part behind the heat Element is what irritates not being able to clean properly.
isn’t that a hazard because it prevents air flow?
That's the bit I need to figure out how to clean.
Was thinking about buying one until I saw this video.
How do you clean the bottom slots below the basket in the immediate front?. Lower lip collects grease too
I wonder if you can put aluminum foil under the basket and form another catch basket for drippings? And after cooking something , you just toss the aluminum foil. I hate cleaning up 5 or 6 places after cooking.
I don't see why not. I put sheets of foil on the bottom of my oven.
Drying kills many germs, but do remove the gunked buildup first. Non-stick surfaces are easiest to deal with, so do give those air fryers affirmative consideration when purchasing. 👍
Ok, but even with using dish soap and hot water, you're still putting grease down the drain. I thought you weren't supposed to do that?
Can you use EZ Off spray for inside grease on elements?
Thank you so much very useful
The reason I haven't bought an air fryer yet is because it's so hard to clean.
its actually super easy, this video makes it hard, all you need to do is put the basket and grill part into the dishwasher and ur good to go.

Me too! 😂😂😂😂🇺🇸🇧🇷
Non stick pan half pait was removed how to use it... Can we repaint it?
exactly the video I was looking for.... Wow!
Can you put the basket in the dishwasher?
The thing is no matter how I rinse it with clean water, still smells like dishwasher after the next use...please advise.

But all the side vents won't allow that on most air fryer trays, which sucks
What is fairy liquid???
@@jmegee1975 😂
Hood meals needs to see this
Does anyone dry the basket after cleaning/washing it, by heating it a bit?
This is the reason why I would never get an airfryer. Imagine doing this after every meal. No thanks!

Can I pay someone to clean this for me?
How to loose the inside basket...?
this clip show the instruction of cleaning with an air fryer that is never used :)) 1:17
0:14 Did anybody else say "That's flavor, bro!"
ew
i have mine spotless and it reeks terrible on pre heat.
Much to do after each use. Hmmm maybe I'll pass on air fryers.

I prefer oven it gives larger space to cook in and way more easier to CLEAN
Great
Soap and water that's it ??? Expected better tips than that
You forgot to mention the fan as it's impossible to clean one big flaw in most air fryers
I just toss the basket and drawer in the dishwasher
the drawer?
@@floralo2508 aàaAaaaaà1999999
can’t do that with mine
Lol never use metal to clean your air fryer and she's using a metal tong at the beginning so going to scratch before you even start cleaning 🤣
How is smoke worse than smell
Too much trouble!
Have to agree, Glad I looked before I bought one.
People listen to me you need a wire brush or a flexible one same procedure use hot water and soap and let dry better yet a degreaser would work well also.
bro... she :cleaned" the inside of an already clean air fryer...
Be cautious of soap! Our food tasted like Dawn after the first three uses
Dawn powerwash will make you have to throw the whole thing away!
That was not a soft cloth they were using. !!!
What's wrong with the sound...?
air fryer... oil?
not very helpful. obvious, basic cleaning tips. How do you remove baked on grease that has accumulated for a year?
What a pain to clean, I bet a lot of people just use them gunked up. ugh.
Use a pan ffs
How about you just put tin foil inside every time
The term 'Air Fryer' is misleading. It would be more accurate to call it an 'Air Broiler'.
What a pain in the backside to clean...Eat out job sorted....
This is very basic cleaning, don't really need this video to tell me most of this stuff.
ngl this is too much work
crap video, assumes it was clean to begin with. I want to know how to clean one with baked in gunk!
Rubbish video. How is this "deep cleaning"? Where are the chemicals/vinegar tips?
