The secret to good toast is keeping your toaster clean, and it only takes a few minutes of your time.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A soft, clean brush
A sponge
Mild soap or dishwashing solution
A soft, clean cloth
Vinegar
Nail polish remover

Step 1: Bring toaster to sink

Unplug the toaster and set it near a sink to minimize clean up.

Warning: Never immerse your toaster -- or any electrical appliance -- in water.

Step 2: Brush off crumbs

Insert the brush into the toaster slots to gently brush the crumbs off the metal parts inside, moving from top to bottom.

Step 3: Empty crumb tray

Lift the toaster, remove the crumb tray underneath, and dump the crumbs into your sink.

Step 4: Clean tray

Clean the tray with the sponge and mild soap or dishwashing solution. Rinse and dry the tray before you put it back.

Tip: If the tray isn't dirty, just brush the crumbs off and insert it back into the toaster.

Step 5: Shake toaster

To get any remaining crumbs out, turn the toaster upside down over the sink and shake it a few times.

Step 6: Clean outside of toaster

Wipe the outside of your toaster clean with a little diluted vinegar on the cloth.

Tip: If any bits of plastic bags or containers have melted onto the toaster's exterior, apply a little nail polish remover and then wipe it off.

Step 7: Enjoy

Admire your toaster -- it looks like new!
