How Often to Clean How to Clean Immersion Blender
When to Clean Your Immersion Blender
After Every Use: Rinse or wash the removable parts immediately after blending to prevent food residue from hardening. This habitual cleaning prevents buildup that can lead to bacteria growth and makes your next cleanup easier.
Regular Deep Cleaning: If you use the blender daily, give it a thorough clean at least once a week. Regular deep cleans ensure that oils, food particles, and any lingering smells don’t compromise the appliance’s performance.
Before Long Storage: Even if you don’t use the immersion blender frequently, clean it thoroughly before storing. Leftover residues, even when dry, can become tough to remove and attract pests or unwanted bacteria.
Spot-Clean Between Jobs: For intermittent use throughout the day, consider a quick rinse between tasks. This minimizes buildup and avoids the stress of a major cleanup later on.
