Cleaning the EveryGrain
and easy. The Steaming Basket, Spatula, and
Measuring Scoop are dishwasher safe or can
be cleaned by rinsing in warm, soapy water. The
Cooking Pot should always be cleaned by hand
with warm, soapy water in order to preserve its
nonstick coating.
STEP 1:
After cooking is completed, remove contents from
the Cooking Pot or Steaming Basket (to store or eat).
STEP 2:
Dispose of any leftover food in the Cooking Pot or
Steaming Basket, and rinse the pieces in warm,
soapy water (or place the Steaming Basket in the
dishwasher).
STEP 3:
Clean the inner heating plate with a clean, damp
cloth once the unit has cooled down completely.
ADVICE: Never clean the heating plate immediately after
cooking. Unplug the cooker and allow the heating plate
to cool completely before cleaning.
Clean the Cooking Pot, the Steaming Basket
(if used), and the heating plate after each use.
Regular cleaning helps keep food residue from
building up inside the pot or basket. If food sticks
inside the Cooking Pot, soak pot with water for a
while before cleaning.
Clean the Sealing Panel, Steam Vent, and
Condensation Collector thoroughly every time you
use the Cooker. Use a damp cloth or sponge and
warm, soapy water to wipe the Sealing Panel and
Condensation Collector clean. Remove the Steam
Vent plug and rinse with warm water. Clean inside
of the Steam Vent with a damp cloth.
