The Best Ways to Clean an Electric Hob

Most modern kitchens are equipped with induction hobs or ceramic hobs because they are efficient and safe for the family by directly heating the pan. In addition, hermitlux's electric hob adopts a built-in design which saves space and makes the kitchen look more fashionable.

A clean electric hob can more effectively transfer heat from the ceramic to the cookwares. Hermitlux's electric hobs use a black polished ceramic glass surface design, which means that they are easier to clean and maintain, but if the wrong cleaning products are used, the electric hob can easily be scratched and worn. So, how to clean the electric hob effectively?

First of all, before cleaning the electric hob, remember to turn off the power and wait for the electric hob to cool down completely before cleaning. Especially for the ceramic hob, because the ceramic hob itself generates heat and then transfers the heat to the pot, the surface temperature of the hob after use will be very high.

Next, use a soft cloth or sponge to wipe away spills or food debris on the hob. If it is difficult to remove the dirt, you can use a cleaner specially used to clean ceramic and glass hobs. 

It should be noted that if the dripping on the hob is something that may be difficult to remove, please try to turn off the hob and clean it in a short time. Because sugary and sticky stains are difficult to remove once they settle. If you cannot completely remove the stubborn dirt on the cooktop, you may want to try a scraper specially designed for glass. Make sure that the scraper is sharp before use, because a dull scraper may cause greater damage to the hob. Then hold the scraper at an angle of about 45 degrees and carefully push the burnt food gently. To prevent scratches and marks, always remember to lift the utensils instead of sliding them over the ceramic surface. 

Finally, use a dry soft cloth to wipe off the moisture on the surface of the electric hob.

Regular and proper maintenance is extremely important if you want your cooking appliance to be happy. It will not only reduce the time you will spend cleaning every time but also make it a lot easier and more pleasant. Therefore, after each cooking, no matter whether you use induction cooker cleaner or not, you must use a dry soft cloth for a simple wipe. This will remove any debris after cooking. You can also use a little glass cleaner to disinfect the hob. In addition, know the best cookware that can be used with the electric. When cleaning the electric hob, also clean the cookware. Avoid exposing your hob to a dirty pot immediately after cleaning, as this may cause burnt stains.

The electric hob is an incredibly handy kitchen appliance and it makes sense to keep it in the best condition to protect your investment.
