We recommend using a mild detergent and warm water to clean the inside of the freeze dryer. It’s important to thoroughly wash and rinse the freeze dryer and the shelf unit after each batch. Avoid using harsh chemicals or sanitizers as they may damage the freeze dryer.

Harsh chemicals or sanitizers would include bleach, ammonia, or any abrasive cleaning agents. These can potentially damage the freeze dryer and should be avoided. Stick to mild detergents and warm water for cleaning.
