Instant Pot Cleaning

About

Cleaning your Instant Pot is essential to maintain its performance and hygiene. The process involves several steps, starting with the outer body. Use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe down the exterior, paying attention to any areas with splatters or fingerprints. For the inner pot, it can be washed in a dishwasher or hand-washed with soapy water. If there are stubborn stains, soaking the pot in hot soapy water or using a gentle scrubber can help. For deeper cleaning, a mixture of water, vinegar, and sometimes lemon can be used. This method is particularly effective for deodorizing the silicone sealing ring. Simply add the mixture to the pot, close the lid, and use the steam function for a few minutes. After releasing the pressure, rinse and dry all parts thoroughly. Regular cleaning ensures your Instant Pot remains in good condition and continues to function optimally.
