Lately, I've been getting email from people
who have self-cleaning oven. It has slowly
dawned on me that these ovens have a different
interior surface that needs to be treated with
care.
Put the wrong chemicals on the interior surfaces
of your self-cleaning oven and you damage it.
This is what I'm hearing over and over again.
This begs the question: Can a self-cleaning oven
be damaged by baking soda? Is it safe to use
baking soda on a self-cleaning oven?
This web page seems to think it is OK. It mentions
making a paste with baking soda in it to clean your
oven:
Self Cleaning Oven Repair and Care
Here's another web page that seems to think it
is OK to use baking soda on a self-cleaning
oven:
How to Manually Clean an Electric Self Cleaning Oven
This web page seems to strongly favor baking
soda as a cleaning agent for a self-cleaning
oven:
Self Cleaning Ovens – Toxic For Humans or Only Birds?
I'll be looking at other sources to see if they
agree. I'm not an oven cleaning expert myself so
I depend on outside sources for better information
than I can provide.

Thanks for the helpful links. I think it is fine to use Baking Soda in my opinion, it's not going to have a detrimental effect on the oven. However I still would use conventional oven cleaning products over this, making sure the cleaning product isn't caustic or hazardous. It can provide a cheap way of cleaning your oven though.
ReplyDeleteGreat thoughts you got there, believe I may possibly try just some of it throughout my daily life.
