    Haven’t done that in ages. You see, the way it works with adhd is that I use the oven and when it’s hot and I’m inserting the food, I’m reminded that I’ll need to clean it. After eating the oven is too hot to clean and by the time it’s again at room temperature I have forgotten the thing even exists.

      Could you put a brightly coloured post-it on the oven, so you’ll notice it next time you’re in the kitchen?

          Yes, that’s how it works. Then you channel that hatred into cleaning the oven, even though you don’t really want to.

    I keep a desktop convection/airfrying oven next to the real oven. Every 2-3 years I recycle it and get a new one.

    Big ovens are a fucking nightmare to clean :)

        Yeah this always bothered me. If it can kill birds is it really OK for you? A coal miner wouldn’t approve of this. I can certainly smell it. I only do this every three years or so and always in the fall when I can leave the windows open for quite a few hours.

          Birds have incredibly efficient lungs, which makes them incredibly sensitive lungs at the same time.

          Another danger of a similar kind is teflon or similarly coated things heating up. For humans it might be about as bad as flu-like symptoms, with our glorified air balloons of a set of lungs, but in birds it shreds the lungs from the inside

        I had one of these, filthy when I moved in, so I tried the self-cleaning, pyroclastic cloud killer mode or whatever it’s called, and it gave off so much smoke I had to have all the windows open and disconnect the smoke detector and it still looked like shit afterwards.

          It can take several runs if it’s really bad. And you still need to wipe it out between runs. It can’t teleport grease, it can only burn it so you can wipe it off.

          I made beef jerky in the oven one time 8 years ago and the evaporated Worcestershire sauce turned into an enamel that cannot be removed by any household cleaner unless I step it up to something that’d dissolve the metal of the oven itself. It’s permanent as far as I’m concerned. It looks like grease but you can’t even scrape it off it’s beyond Gorilla Glass in hardness.

      Thanks! I used this thing (don’t know what it is in English) with a tiny bit of water and let it soak overnight. Also there was a little bucket with water in the oven to avoid the soap mixture drying out. Used a rough sponge and gloves due to the high pH of the soap.
