A juicer mixer grinder is essential for handling everything from smoothies to spice mixes. Whether you want to transform whole fruits and vegetables into healthy juice pours, prepare batters, grind spices, or even make curry purees, the all-in-one Usha’s juicer mixer grinder can handle every kitchen task.

But like any other appliance, it needs a little kindness to maintain its peak performance and stand the test of time. If you neglect proper cleaning, the juicer mixer grinder can get an unpleasant odour, and its efficiency might also be lowered. So, to make sure you keep your appliance’s performance high, follow these tips to keep it clean.

Clean After Every Use

To make sure your juicer mixer grinder is “Monica-clean”, always disassemble after each use. Wash the detachable parts like jars, lids, blades, and gaskets with lukewarm water and dishwasher detergent. If you feel you have used an ingredient with a strong odour, like garlic or spices, you can let the parts sit in soapy water for some time and then rinse.

Use A Brush For Blades

Washing with a sponge can get your clean jars, but the hard-to-reach areas, especially around the blades, require special attention. Since using your fingers can be dangerous, you should take a small brush (even a toothbrush) to get rid of stains or food particles. It also prevents a microbacterial growth in tiny spots you’d otherwise miss.

Try Natural Cleaners

Whether you want to tackle persistent smells or tough stains, natural cleaners will always come in handy. You can scrub the insides of the jars and lids with lemon peels to give them a fresh aroma. As for the stains, you can make a paste of baking soda and water, apply it on the stain, and wipe it after 10-15 minutes. You can also add a little vinegar to water to remove stubborn stains.

Dry Before Reassembling

Once you are done with the tough part, i.e. cleaning the Usha juicer mixer grinder, wait for all the parts to try before you reassemble. If you put the appliance back together when still wet, it can trap moisture, risking mould and an unpleasant smell. You can let the parts dry on their own or pat them with paper towels if you need to use them immediately.

Clean The Base Unit

The base unit often gets the least attention when you’re cleaning Usha’s juicer mixer grinder. While the jars and blades need to be cleaned immediately, if you notice any spills or splashes on the base unit, it’s better to clean the unit before the next use. Since you cannot submerge the base unit into water as it has all the electric components, you can wipe it with a damp cloth. To get rid of any food residue, you can always use a slightly soapy cloth before using the damp towel.
