The Ninja Creami’s WORST FLAW and My Solution
For more great Instant Pot recipes, please visit InstantPotEasy.com
I hate the Ninja Creami lid SO much. It’s pretty gross that there’s no good way to clean it. Honestly I don’t know how it made it past …
Yes! I hate cleaning the lid.
Dishwasher?
Thank you Jesus for the gift of life and prosperity. The success behind every rich person today is the decision they made for themselves, I'm so happy I'm able to acquire my second house in January even as single mom at 41 and I believe if things keep going well I would retire early,
All thanks to Mrs Nancy, I really appreciate.
2:35 . Silicone gaskets absorb odors and it's very difficult to remove them. I have the same problem with the silicone gasket in my Instant Pot. The only thing I found to get rid of the smell in the Instant Pot is to steam eggs.
Well have you tried to clean the lid above the air fryer element, on the attatched lid on the Ninja Foodi? Another impossible to clean area.
I would try using a home brewer cleaner (beer making) cleaner. It doe’s great for bacreria and odors and it’s food grade. Any home brew site/store has it and not expensive.
I use some dish and bottle brushes of different sizes to clean it.
Not dishwasher proof?
maybe try using hydrogen peroxide?
Ok, not going to buy it. Sounds disgusting 😮
I have the Creami Breeze which is easier to clean and I also use a straw cleaner for the hole.
Just rinse it after and before every use. It is a flaw but chance of any of it getting into your food are slim to none.
One thing that works really well is to soak it in hot water and espresso machine cleaner (Cafiza or similar, it's like 15 bucks for a big bottle of powder that will last for years). It's specifically made to clean and sanitize spots you can't reach or clean physically and to be washed off without residue. It gets rid of all the grease (it's made to clean partly polymerized coffee oils) and dissolves almost anything, except plastic and metal. It's also perfect for keeping rubber seals and gaskets squishy and clean. It's a game changer for so many kitchen hygiene problems, in my opinion.
Oh no , and i recently ordered a ninja creami , i hope u find a good solution for this AND make a video about this solution also , or just an update somewhere! Thx for the info anyway!
I sling mine in the dishwasher, no problems so far 👍
I noticed that issue with the lid, It actually holds water for a long time after washing since there is no air flow in that circle spring mechanism. I was thinking about drilling a small hole in the top of the lid in that area as a drain/air hole where the spring mechanism is. I haven't done it yet but I'm pretty handy and I want there to be a way for soap and water to rinse better where the shaft and blade sit and for it to dry. That is important for bacteria control.
I hope you could email your video to the ninja headquarters.
Umm. Take it apart & wash it after using it? It’s like complaining about washing a dish after using it. It really isn’t a flaw. Apparently people are lazy.
I use my dish washer & it does all the work for me.
After use I immediately rinse while blade is still attached, then remove blade and clean with sponge. From the bottom and on top this keeps it sealed. No issues yet, but I have the deluxe model which has a port hole exposed when the blade is removed and drain holes. You can shoot water throught he port hole and out the drain holes. Not sure if the older 7 in 1 has the same. Maybe drill holes in the top so can rinse and drain the residue.
Clean with ole toothbrush in white vinegar and v warm water
I agree, this is a terrible flaw! I forgot to clean mine, went away on a little vacation and now, it's completely unusable. So I have reordered two new lids. I can't wait for them to arrive as I miss my ice creams! I will keep looking at the best ways to keep this silly lid clean! thanks for posting your video!
