Your oven has a clean cycle for a reason, turns that and all the other disgusting shit you've probably been splattering all over the inside into much easier to deal with ash. Don't worry about starting a fire in there either, the inside of the oven is supposed to get hot.

Edit: I should clarify what I mean by "don't worry about starting a fire in there. Of all the places in your house, save for a fireplace if you have one, the oven is by far the best place for a fire to be. So if a fire does start in your oven during the clean cycle it's fine, hell go watch it because it's the closest thing you get to a fireplace in apartment life.

How do you turn on the clean cycle on my 30 year old Gorenje gasoven?

[–] Cenzorrll@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Set it to hot as fuck for an hour

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 10 months ago

Oven clean cycles are generally hot as fuck for multiple hours.

It's not that bad, even when it's as bad as it can get it's not that bad.

My oven has a clean cycle??

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Probably and you should use it about once a month assuming you're in the United States, I genuinely have no idea how far that feature has spread.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

It was a joke. My oven definitely doesn't have any such features. I'm not in the US and the stove is at least over 20 years old

Yeah, that don't worry about a fire mindset cost me over $4k and the ability to rent apartments for like 5 years. The story is a bit more nuanced than that, but a fire broke out behind my oven while it was left on for a while.
