It’s true! You are only six minutes away from a sparkling clean microwave with zero scrubbing. Here’s the secret: 

  • Using a small microwave safe bowl, mix approximately 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup vinegar. 
  • Microwave on high for four minutes. 
  • Don’t open the door just yet. Let the built up steam clean for a few minutes longer. 
  • Wipe clean! No scrubbing necessary. 

This works so well, your family will think you bought a new microwave.
