It is essential to clean your air fryer after each use to maintain its efficiency and longevity. Residual grease, food particles, and crumbs can accumulate, leading to unpleasant odours and reduced performance. Cleaning the basket and tray after every cooking session ensures that your air fryer stays hygienic and prevents the buildup of bacteria. A deeper clean, including wiping down the heating element, should be done weekly or monthly, depending on how often you use the appliance. Regular maintenance will keep your
air fryer running smoothly and deliver consistently great results.
How to clean your air fryer: Step-by-step guide
- Unplug the air fryer: Always ensure your air fryer is unplugged before cleaning to avoid any electrical hazards.
- Remove the basket and tray: Take out the basket and tray and wash them with warm soapy water or place them in a dishwasher if they are dishwasher safe.

Tips for keeping your air fryer clean for longMaintaining your air fryer doesn't have to be a challenge if you adopt a few simple habits. First, always use liners or parchment paper in the basket to catch drips and crumbs, making the cleanup much easier. When cooking greasy foods like bacon or burgers, try to drain excess fat midway through cooking to prevent it from settling at the bottom of the air fryer. Regularly checking and cleaning the heating element will help avoid grease buildup, which could affect the air fryer’s performance over time. Additionally, avoid overcrowding the basket to prevent food from sticking to each other and the walls, which can make cleaning more difficult. Finally, always wipe down the interior and exterior after each use to keep it looking new and functioning properly. These small steps will save you time and effort in the long run, extending the life of your appliance, especially for larger models like 5-litre air fryers.
