Chicas,

Necesito ayuda!  Compre una casa hace poco, y viene con una estufa electrica.  Yo nunca habia tenido una estufa electrica, siempre he tenido de gas (lo cual me encanta!) y la odio!!!!  El caso es que ayer tire comida por debajo de la cosa esa que calienta, y no se como limpiarla o que productos usar?  Y se puede quitar la cosa esa que calienta, que ni se como se llama?  Alguien sabe? 


Ladies,

I need help!  I bought a new home, and it came with an electric stove, (I've always had gas stoves), and I hate it!!!!  The thing is, I spilled some liquid underneath the warmer thing, and I don't know how to clean it up.  Does the warmer come off?  What cleaning product do I use to clean the plates with?  Anyone knows?

Thank you!!

Quoting MamisAngels:

I've had electric for as long as I can remember. I'm used to it. But growing up and even now, Mami always had gas. So when I cook at her house I have to adjust.

Anyway, to clean, it looks like Blanca already gave you tips on how to remove the burner itself. As for the drip pan underneath that part, you can cover with foul like she said, or repurchase, they come in packs of 2-4 at family dollar, Walmart etc. But if you just need to clean off food that overflowed, you can use baking soda and a Brillo pad, or powder dishwasher detergent. It should help it come  right off. Just let it soak for a little it in warm water first, then scrub it off and it should be like new.

I hope that helps!

Thanks for answering girls because, I hadn't cleaned one of these types of burners in YEARS!
