Apparently, we’ve all been using can openers wrong our whole lives – The right way to do it!

It’s much easier to open a can with a can opener if you use this method Have you been using a can opener to open cans of food for practically your entire life, like us? Then this is the lifehack for you! Apparently, we’ve all been using can openers wrong our entire lives. The video in this article shows you the easiest way to do it. And believe us; this is going to save you so much trouble in the kitchen from now on! Have you been using can openers the wrong way all these years?

Cleaning can openers

For a lot of people, a can opener is an essential item to have in the kitchen. It’s very useful when it comes to opening cans of tomato, soap or other types of canned food. Did you know you should properly clean your can opener from time to time? After every time you use it, the little wheels end up full of bacteria. There’s an easy way to clean an opener, though.

Place the opener in a glass jar (with the wheels facing down) and fill it with white vinegar until the wheels are entirely covered. Let this sit and soak for an hour. Then, take it out and scrub it with an old toothbrush, using some of the vinegar in the jar. When the little wheels appear to be entirely clean, you finish by washing up the opener with a bit of dish soap and drying it properly with a tea towel.

Lifehack

Back to the lifehack we’ve all been waiting for because what is the right way to open a tin can? Pay close attention to how you place the wheels of a can opener on the can. Do you place them vertically, with one wheel on top and one wheel beneath the can? Then you might have experienced some difficulty getting the loosened lid out of the can. Try placing the opener onto the can horizontally. Make sure one of the wheels is on the inside of the edge and the other one on the outside. When you open it this way, the entire edge of the can comes loose, which makes it much easier to remove the top!
