Hi,

Does anyone have any good tips for cleaning the perforated trays of an electric food steamer?

Thanks.

I put mine in the dishwasher...but washing them as you would normally wash dishes should be enough...do you mean the plastic ones?

Yes, the plastic ones. I've had the steamer for about 8 months and use it two or three times per week. It's been OK until recently, but now, for some reason, they won't clean properly. It could be due to the hard water I have here. Looks like I'll have to try an abrasive of some kind as I've tried standard hand and dishwasher cleaning, as well as white vinegar.

Thanks for replying.

I am using the specialist formula you can buy for high-spec plastic kitchen sinks (mine is white......). You should be able to find a proprietary one at most large branches of Focus, B&Q etc

Thanks! I'll see what I can find at B&Q.
