Brandon` Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I've heard a while back that people that have a bunch of burn marks around the top edges of there bowl (most of us do) boil there bowl in a pot and all those marks come off. Is this true? I've really been wondering lately and am thinking about doing it if its possible, Thanks for your help. Brandon` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Yes. This is how you clean the black stuff off. Boil it for five minutes, scrub it for a while. Boil again, scrub. Repeat until it's clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxik916 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Thats how I clean my phunnels. Boil, scrub and repeat if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 i probably wouldn't boil some of the lebanese bowls i have, the 3-compartment bowl, or any other "cheapy" type bowls.... i'm not sure if it'll actually ruin the bowl....but, i'm not willing to risk it either...

thatonethere Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 You guys are so dirty:lol_hitting: But in all seriousness. I had a lingering smell in my HJ alien mini. I boiled it in the microwave with some lemon juice in the water and the smell was gone. I plan on doing this with my mod bowl. It really needs it.

[/quote] never thought of using the microwave, usually i just grab a post fill with water and lemon juice, bring to a boil. plop my bowls in there let them sit for a little, take em out let them cool off a tad so i can grab them, the start scrubbing away with a SOS pad. it really does wonders.
