Cleaning Out Your Toaster

By Laurie Laurie (Guest Post)

LOL... if you have kids 'Anything' is possible (m&ms's in the VCR) ;)

I use a toothbrush to scrape off crumbs and food on my heating elements. I have an air compressor but canned air will work just as good. I try to clean all my elec. appliances once a month, inside and out.

Yes I do not know why there would be jelly and butter in your toaster!

I hope you're talking about a toaster oven, not a pop up- never heard of butter and jam in one of those before!

Why in the world would you butter or put jelly on the bread BEFORE you toast it????

I agree, use the compressed air. But next time don't let anything like that in your toaster (unless it is a toaster oven) The hot oils can start a fire!

My toaster has a little door on the bottom to open and clean it out. I'd think that if you were just blowing a compressed air spray into the toaster, it'd be messy but okay. I wouldn't spray anything else in there.

Good luck!
