Behmor and my stupidity

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I reckon!! The smell reminds me of those yellow tablets that float in urinals in public toilets!!!

Better keep a better hold of your Strepsils...

Simple green works well but I don't like the smell much.
I prefer using the orange oil based cleaners.

After every 5 roasts max. I use the original green colored Simple Green sprayed onto a cloth and wipe the Behmor clean before doing a dry roast.

The dry roast seems to get rid of any residual toilet candy smell left by the Simple Green.

Simple Green also makes a non-toxic Microwave/Oven cleanerin a spray can. I guess this is more concentrated for heavier build-up.
Wonder if this is OK for the Behmor?

Any thoughts on using CLR?

Any thoughts on using CLR?

I'd avoid using CLR to clean your Behmor. CLR contains acids (Calcium Lime Rust, more commonly known as CLR, is a household cleaning product used for dissolving stains, such as calcium, lime, and iron oxide deposits. Its ingredients include water, lactic acid, gluconic acid, lauramine oxide, and Propylene Glycol n-Butyl Ether.) Use Orange Oil (mild detergent) as recommended. Easy to get at Woolworths. Do not use acids on metal, especially when you're going to heat the metal quite hot!!!! Your Behmor will disappear!
