How to Clean Your Oven Glass (Fast, No Harsh Chemicals)

If you cook as much as we do, your oven door glass eventually looks like a crime scene baked-on grease, streaks, mystery splatter. I’ve tried sprays, blades, and every hack on the internet. Nothing touched it like this. Yesterday we filmed the exact method I use at home. It’s quick, safe on the glass, and weirdly satisfying.

 

Oven glass doesn’t stand a chance. With Baking Steel Cleaning Bricks, you can go from filthy ➝ spotless in seconds — no harsh chemicals, no hassle.

Why this works: The Cleaning Brick’s ultra-fine, glass-safe abrasive lifts baked-on grease without harsh chemicals or scraping. Wet it, glide it, wipe it. Done.

Step-by-Step: Crystal-Clear Oven Glass

  1. Cool & prep: Make sure the oven door is cool. Lay a towel below to catch drips.
  2. Wet the brick: Dip the Cleaning Brick in warm water. Keep it damp as you work.
  3. Light pressure: Glide the brick over the glass in overlapping passes. Let the brick do the work.  Press to hard and scratches may occur.  
  4. Wipe & check: Use a damp microfiber to lift residue. Repeat light passes on any stubborn spots.
  5. Final polish: Finish with a dry microfiber for a streak-free shine.

Tip: For heavy buildup at the edges, angle the brick slightly and use short, controlled strokes.

Why the Cleaning Brick Beats Sprays & Scrapers

  • Glass-safe micro-abrasion: Lifts carbonized grease without scratching tempered glass.
  • No harsh chemicals: Just water + brick = cleaner air and safer kitchen.
  • Fast: Most doors go from cloudy to clear in under 2 minutes.

FAQ

Will the brick scratch my oven glass?
Used damp and with light pressure, it’s safe on tempered oven glass. Always test a small corner first.
Baking Steel is not responsible for any damage or scratches caused by misuse or failure to follow instructions.
Can I use it on the Baking Steel?
Yes our Cleaning Bricks are made for carbon steel too. Use light pressure with water, then dry and season the Steel lightly afterward.
What about the oven’s enamel or stainless trim?
Stick to glass for best results. If you try other surfaces, test a tiny area first and go very light.
Do I need a cleaner or chemicals?
Nope. Water is enough for the brick to lift baked-on grease. Finish with a microfiber.
