lemon
water
Put a bowl of water with a squeezed lemon or lemon juice in the

steam do its job by letting it sit for a few minutes and then wipe
clean.
STAINLESS STEEL CLEANER

Pour or spray a little vinegar directly on a microfiber cleaning cloth -
not directly on your stainless steel. Apply to your appliances going with
the grain of your stainless steel from top to bottom. Buff as needed.
DIY GRANITE CLEANER
3 tablespoons alcohol
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon castile soap or blue Dawn
Combine ingredients, close spray bottle, shake, and clean. It’s
important to clean granite (or marble) in small sections (a 4 foot
square area is good) to minimize the time that any liquid sits on
the surface. Wipe with a clean, dry microfiber or dish cloth.

water
white vinegar
Fill coffee pot with equal parts cold water and vinegar. Pour solution
in the water dispenser and run coffee maker as usual. Empty solution
in sink. Run with water 2-3 times or until vinegar smell is gone.
HOMEMADE PASTE OVEN CLEANER
water
1/4-1/2 cup of baking soda
1 tablespoon castile soap or blue Dawn dish soap
Mix up paste, using a sponge, spread the paste all over your oven

sponge, wipe clean and rinse thoroughly with warm water. Repeat
