How to Clean and Maintain Your Induction Cooktop

So hopefully by now you’ve been loving your new induction cooktop and cooking up a storm. If you haven’t done that yet, you can read more about our reviews about the best induction cootkops, why you need to give it a try. So the reason why I made this post is because the first time I bought and used my new induction cooktop, I thought I made a big scratch on it. I tried everything to get it off and scrubbed my hands off. Nothing would work and I freaked out and was upset. I found a video on youtube and they recommended the cerama bryte cleaner. I bought it and gave it a shot! It removed what I thought was a scratch! I seriously so relieved and it’s totally worth for under $15.

What You Will Need?

1. Cerama Bryte Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner Kit from Amazon for under $15.
2. Some Elbow Grease

I found that using the ceramic cooktop cleaner is one of the best products in terms of cleaning and maintaining your cooktop. It’s also highly recommended from Samsung who makes induction cooktops. But seriously, I’ve tried all sort of products such as alcohol based window cleaners, 409 all purpose cleaner and soapy dish soap before but everything else fails in comparison. I seriously hate burnt on food and grease! Yuck!

Quick Steps

1. The cooktop cleaning kit comes with a scraper, which I first use to remove all the crud that I can. I just keep this close by all the time and use it at least once a week to clean everything.
2. Pour a bit of the awesome cerama cleaner, not much just a few drops is good enough.
3. Scrub away with the cleaning pads that comes with it!
4. BOOM! You have a new looking cooktop.

How Often Do You Need To Clean It?

I guess this is a personal preference and totally up to you. But I like to keep a relatively clean kitchen cause I’m kind of a clean freak. I clean it once a week and this product has lasted me for about a year. Although the scraper did break after about six months, I’ve been using a razor blade instead. It works great!

 

 

So head over to Amazon and purchase the cleaner, it will save you money and headaches.
