How Do I Clean My Ninja Blender?

Cleaning your Ninja blender is super easy! Here’s how to do it quickly and effectively.

The Quick Clean

This method is perfect for after making smoothies or other simple blends.

• Fill your blender pitcher halfway with warm water.
• Add a drop of dish soap.
• Put the lid on tightly.
• Blend for 30-60 seconds.
• Rinse the pitcher thoroughly with warm water.
• Let it air dry upside down on a dish rack.

Deep Cleaning

Sometimes, you need a more thorough clean, especially if you’ve blended something sticky or smelly.

• Disassemble the blender. Take off the lid, blade assembly, and any other removable parts.
• Wash each part separately with warm, soapy water. You can use a sponge or dishcloth.
• For stuck-on food, soak the parts in warm, soapy water for 10-15 minutes before scrubbing.
• Rinse everything thoroughly and let it air dry.

Cleaning the Base

Don’t forget the blender base! It can get splattered with ingredients.

• Unplug the blender!
• Wipe the base with a damp cloth or sponge. Don’t submerge it in water!
• If necessary, use a little dish soap on the cloth, but make sure to wipe it off completely afterward.

Things to Avoid

Here are a few things you shouldn’t do when cleaning your Ninja blender:

• Don’t put the pitcher in the dishwasher unless the manual specifically says it’s dishwasher-safe. Some pitchers can warp in the dishwasher.
• Don’t use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. They can scratch the pitcher and other parts.
• Don’t submerge the motor base in water. This could damage the electrical components.

Troubleshooting

Still having trouble getting your blender clean? Here are a few tips:

• Lingering smells? Blend a mixture of baking soda and water. Let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
• Stuck-on gunk? Try soaking the affected parts in a solution of white vinegar and water.

Summary

Keeping your Ninja blender clean is simple! Regular quick cleans and occasional deep cleans will keep it working great and prevent unpleasant smells. Remember to always unplug the blender before cleaning the base and avoid submerging it in water. Happy blending!
