One of the magazines featured handy tips from apparatus repair people and they recommend Bar Keepers Friend for cleaning your oven without breaking it.

Simply wondering, before I order it, if anyone hither had a expert experience?

When we apply Piece of cake Off and then self clean the oven, I literally tin't exhale and must leave the house for a few hours. So anything less toxic would exist welcome!

(I accept edited the title to reflect the direction the thread has taken, and I am more than happy to have everyone postal service their best tips. But I also do want to know virtually this Bar Keeper's Friend product!)

why are you using like shooting fish in a barrel off on a self-cleaning oven? I use dish soap and a scrubby on the door then self clean to kasher. I don't use major chemicals on the within of the oven. you can even make a paste of baking soda, let it sit overnight, then wipe all the grime off.

I take splatter on the glass window of the door. Volition cocky clean accept care of that or exercise I need to get the splatter off the glass door first? If so how would I do that? I tried dawn dissolver sitting for 20 minutes and scrubbing and it didn't come off.

yes, you need to get that off. I use palmolive with steel wool, no water. I've never had a problem with it. you're officially not supposed to use steel wool, I think, so be extra careful around the gasket. you need to be careful there regardless of scrubber cloth. alternatively, brand a paste of baking soda and let it dry overnight. if y'all prefer a more than toxic method, smother information technology in soft scrub, allow it dry completely, wipe off with dry newspaper towels. you really don't demand piece of cake-off.

A light dawns!

Commodity above mentioned that fabric gasket around door is fragile and not to be cleaned with harsh cleansers.

So at well-nigh any stove I purchase had a few months til Pesach before its gasket was destroyed (my DDs are fierce cleaners, don't know where they got that!)

Is that why we say in our firm that we never make sponge cakes because they inevitably bomb? We know our oven temperatures are off (ane is loftier & one is low) and I am sure some things don't come up out the way they're supposed to.

Could it be I have finally fabricated the connection?

I uncertainty the oven temp would be also loftier due to a gasket problem. too low might be due to that. more likely to be a thermometer consequence, I retrieve. it shouldn't be hard to supersede the gasket, though, and then if y'all're concerned, practise that.

I'm thinking more that if there are drafts (which the gasket was meant to prevent) at that place would much more than fluctuation in oven temperature, which could make cakes autumn.

So and so why practice some cleaners have an OU on them? (For instance, Soft Scrub, Glass Plus, Dawn dishwashing liquid). I'm not looking to contend, I really would like to know. I simply bought an All-Clad pot that I'thou afraid to employ bc the instructions say to make clean with simply BKF.

considering a lot of people don't know that and the companies felt information technology would be a good selling point, so they paid the OU for the supervision. ask your rav if you lot're uncomfortable just using information technology, just if it'southward non-edible and will (if anything) impart a bad taste on the food, information technology'southward non a trouble afaik.

Only these are things that normally don't touch dishes/cookware. Isn't in that location a problem with cleaning products(that possibly accept some treif ingredients) coming in contact with your cookware, especially when yous're washing with hot water? Why would the OU remove their certification from BKF if there wasn't a problem with it?
PS. still learning.
PPS. I honey to read all your recipes, ra_mom!

no, information technology's not a problem on cookware according to my rabbi. why would the ou remove certification? probable because the visitor stopped paying for information technology.

Some people are machmir and have a chumra to only use kosher certified items on their dishes and cookware. It's not halacha only if yous usually follow this chumra then yous should ask your rav.
And thanks!
