Microwave Tips


Microwave Tips from Fleet Appliance Repair New York Service Tech

Almost everyone in America owns a microwave oven, one of the greatest inventions in technology

 











New York NY – Fleet Appliance Repair owner, Bob Dougherty, repairs all home appliances, large and small, from washers and dryers to microwave and toaster ovens. Fleet Appliance Repair has served the area for over 2 decades and the company is well known and respected for honesty, reliability, and most of all, friendly service techs.

Quite often, when he goes out on an appliance service call, Dougherty notices common habits among appliance owners that lead to pre-mature breakdown, such as overloading a washer or dryer or putting food wrapped in foil into the microwave oven.

The microwave repair man enjoys sharing fun facts with his customers while servicing their appliances. The microwave oven, invented in 1945 by Percy Spencer, has been rated the #1 technology for improving people’s lives. Since the first sale in 1967, the microwave oven sparked a revolution in American lifestyle, with one being found in 90 percent of homes.

Here are some nuking tips from the friendly neighborhood microwave repair man:

• Stir or turn food during cooking time for even heat distribution
• Use lower settings for defrosting food and softening butter or cream cheese
• Use a medium power level for reheating food
• Use high power level for quick cooking and heating water
• Use only microwave-safe containers and avoid cooking in plastic containers unless they are labeled microwave-safe
• Glass and ceramic dishes or paper plates are best for microwave cooking
• Do not place foil, brown paper bags or foam-insulated cups in the microwave
• Do not warm food in containers like those from yogurt, soft margarine or cottage cheese

The microwave oven technician also suggests some easy cleaning tips to keep it looking good and working efficiently. To clean up splattered food inside the microwave oven, heat a bowl of water with lemon juice on high power for five minutes, then leave the door shut for an additional five minutes to allow the heat and steam to work the debris loose. Wipe down with a solution of one cup of water with one tablespoon of baking soda.
