What materials are garlic presses made of?

Garlic presses are manufactured using different materials and these materials greatly affect the lifetime and durability of the product. The most popular garlic presser is known as stainless steel. Stainless steel garlic presses are preferred by users for their shiny appearance, easy cleaning and long-lasting structure.

Another commonly used material is iron garlic press. Iron may be heavier than stainless steel, but it offers excellent durability and is suitable for heavy use. Thanks to its ability to maintain its shape even at high temperatures, it is very useful in professional kitchens. For those who like traditional dishes, iron is preferable as it tends to retain flavours better.

Garlic presser metal options also vary. Metal garlic presses can include materials such as aluminium, steel and sometimes even bronze. Metal garlic presses usually attract attention with their light weight and robust structure. The surface of the metal quickly absorbs the odour of garlic and provides a cleaner use in the kitchen.

In addition to all these materials, some products may also contain plastic components. Plastic components are generally used in the handle part of the garlic press and attract attention with their lightness. Plastic handles can be coloured and offer the opportunity to blend in with kitchen decoration. These models are generally more suitable for light use.

Each of the available material options offers advantages for different usage habits and preferences. Stainless steel appeals to a wide range of users, from amateurs to expert chefs, while iron garlic presses are more suitable for professional kitchens subjected to heavy use. Metal garlic presses, on the other hand, generally stand out with their price performance balance.

The choice of material also affects the maintenance processes of the product. Stainless steel garlic presses are generally one of the options that require less maintenance and have a long life compared to other materials. Iron garlic presses must be protected against oxidation and may be a little more troublesome in this respect. Metal and plastic options, on the other hand, usually offer mixed usage features, offering users a choice between functionality and lightness.

How to clean the garlic presser?

Cleaning the garlic presser after use is of great importance in terms of hygiene as well as extending the life of the tool. Firstly, you can use a kitchen brush or an old toothbrush to clean the garlic residues left on the used garlic presser. This step is effective for cleaning the garlic pieces from small gaps. Afterwards, it is necessary to wash it well with warm water. Water is very effective in removing the remaining garlic waste and odour from the appliance.

After cleaning, it is recommended to dry with a damp cloth to protect the stainless steel surfaces. It is important to dry the garlic press thoroughly, as moisture can cause stainless steel to stain over time. A few drops of vegetable oil can be applied to the joints and moving parts of the product to ensure that the tool runs smoothly for longer. This will keep the mechanism soft and help you to use less force when crushing garlic.

Periodically, when a deeper cleaning is required, you can wash the removable parts in the dishwasher. However, before doing this, it is necessary to check the user manual to verify whether the product is dishwasher safe. For models that are not dishwasher safe, it is safest to wash these parts by hand and with care.

Another important point to be considered when cleaning garlic presses is the calcification left on the product after contact with water. Calcification can accumulate on metal surfaces over time in areas where hard water is used. To prevent this situation, it will be useful to wipe with vinegar after washing with water. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant that dissolves traces of lime and makes metal surfaces shine.

If the garlic press is made of materials other than stainless steel, such as plastic or silicone, each material has its own cleaning requirements. While plastic parts can be easily cleaned with detergent, silicone models should avoid using too many chemicals and should be cleaned with hot water if possible. Since such differences vary according to the product, the user manual of the product should be examined in detail.

To eliminate bad odours that may occur as a result of continuous use, it may be effective to add a few drops of lemon juice or baking soda to the cleaning water. These natural cleaners both remove bad odours and keep the garlic press surfaces clean. With these small but effective steps, your product will help you in your kitchen work by maintaining its functionality for many years.

It is possible to extend the product life and maintain its performance with regular simple cleaning and maintenance operations.
