how to clean ginger residue from my plastic juicer containers? - Young woman utilizing wastes in modern kitchen

I was juicing unpeeled ginger over the weekend, and even though I washed both the main juicing chamber/Auger housing and the juice container after using them, they seem stained, with slightly sticky residue in hard-to-get places and they're tinted slightly yellow.

The brush the juicer came with has helped a bit, but not fully. I watched this video, but it's not super clear how food-safe its recommendations (OxiClean, Sun Oxygen Cleaner) are.

Any pointers would be appreciated!

i would hesitate before using chemical methods like the video you linked suggests, but you may have some success with scrubbing with an SOS pad or chore boy, or even some high grit sand paper (something like 240 grit)

Answer 2

Since the plastic surfaces will continue to be exposed to food, you might try a food-safe solution, such as lemon juice, white vinegar or baking soda. Vinegar and baking soda can be combined into a paste for a scrub. Ammonia might work, but you'd have to thoroughly flush afterwards.
