How to clean burnt sugary droozle off a stainless hob? (1 Viewer)

[Burgo]

Somehow or another we've managed to be sold a loaf of bread with, we think, added sugar. After successfully toasting a slice or two on our fold out hob top toaster gadget and enjoying with soft booked eggs, etc for breakfast, upon washing up we've realised some kind of sugary droozle has dripped through the toaster holes and melted onto the stainless hob. Fairy liquid, cilit bang, vinegar, K7 and stainless polish haven't even touched it. A few spots I managed to pick off, but in the process have scratched the steel. Any suggestions, please?

The Management in my domain swear by a concentrated dose of biological washing powder the consistency of cream. Leave it on overnight. A weaker solution works miracles on getting the tea stains out of melamine and ceramic mugs, cups and stainless steel teapots. Send it down the toilet cassette afterwards to help clean that out,

Re-melt it by putting a few thicknesses of kitchen paper towel over it and applying a hot iron?

boiling water disolves burnt jam on our hob

Not quite the same but a jar of honey spilled in my cupboard. Tissue over top and warm iron as Spriddler says or sponge with really hot soapy water to re melt and wipe off.

Good luck.

Use of sugar is to activate the yeast. - just started making my own bread.

Flash Ultra? And leave to soak for a while.

I'd go for plain old water. Left to soak for 24hrs. A wet sponge sitting on it is a way. Sugar, whether caramelised or not, does not dissolve any better in anything than it does in water.

If you have a steam cleaner that should melt it sufficiently for you to wipe it off.

That might be a good idea too

Thanks, folks. Next time out we'll try a few of those tips and try to get it off.

Sit the dog on the kitchen top and he or she will lick it clean

The following may be of some help with cleaning Stainless steel, I've used washing soda (Sodium Carbonate) and very hot water to good effect, but there some other suggestions in the link.

As an update I also tried soaking in strong vinegar and soaking in Bicarb solution. I then tried an Hydrogen Peroxide cleaning liquid which did start to shift it. Had to then resort to light scrubbing with a green "scotchbright" pad, then polished back with Solvol Autosol. Still a few marks, but much better. Thanks to all for the suggestions - ChrisL 's pdf is deffo worth a read.
