Rinse after use, then its a matter of wiping down in hot soapy water.

Never let the debris dry in the food processor or you're gonna have a bad time. Same with blenders.

If you can't reach the crevices you can also run it with warm (not hot) soapy water to clean the crevices.

A bottle brush is great for those crevices, too 🤌🏼

Those little brushes they make for cleaning straws have so many other uses, I swear.

Edit: just realized you said "bottle" and not "little," sorry about that lol

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, and if you're really old-school, you simply use a pipe cleaner... 🤪

[–] Kase@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ooh smart idea, I forgot those existed for a bit there lol

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's exactly what the "straw cleaner" people wanted you to do, ya know...

They've fooled me again! When will I ever learn? .⁠·⁠´⁠¯⁠⁠(⁠>⁠▂⁠<⁠)⁠´⁠¯⁠⁠·⁠.

They're insidiously clever. It's not your fault. Better humans than yourself have gone their whole lives assuming those fuzzy bendy things were just for preschool craft projects. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yeah, if you can't soak it, get that food off before it dries. This is why I prefer kitchen tools that you can take apart. I replaced my Foreman grill with a griddle with removable plates and love it, even though the Foreman had a bit more cooking area. Plus I got waffle plates and also got rid of the waffle maker that I rarely used because it was such a pain to clean if you ever overestimated how much batter it needed.
