-
Use a needle, toothpick, or pipe cleaner to gently poke through each hole in the burner head.
-
Avoid metal tools that could widen the holes—wooden toothpicks are safest!
4. Scrub & Rinse
-
Scrub the burner heads with an old toothbrush dipped in vinegar.
-
Rinse with hot water and dry completely.
5. Reassemble & Test
-
Put the burner heads, caps, and grates back in place.
-
Turn on the burner—flames should be stronger and even blue (not yellow/orange).
Why This Works:
Vinegar dissolves grease & mineral buildup.
Baking soda acts as a gentle abrasive.
Manual unclogging ensures gas flows freely.
Bonus Tips:
-
Monthly maintenance prevents future clogs.
-
For extra shine, polish grates with a paste of baking soda + water.
-
Yellow flames? That means incomplete combustion—clean again or check gas pressure.
