Can you use JUST olive oil in it without clogging or do you need to use vinegar AND olive oil?

I use plain olive oil. I've had this for a couple of years and it has never clogged. Every few months I wash it out and fill with fresh olive oil. I use mine daily so that may help keep it from clogging.

You can use JUST olive oil without clogging it but I found that the Misto brand has a better spray pattern than the Prepara. I liked the Prepara because it has a glass holding reservoir; but after testing and using both for some time now the Misto brand is far superior IMHO.

This is a terrible mister. I was so excited to receive it,and, after reading all the mixed reviews, I was prepared with all the ways to make it work properly. None of those suggestions worked. I returned it within a week. I wouldn't waste your money on this product.

Don't over fill it and use only distilled water. One cup of 50/50 vinegar and water solution will get rid of any hard water buildup if you've been using tap water but do this at your own risk. If you do clean the tank inside with the solution, the safest way is to make sure the unit is cool and unplugged. Rinse it well before use.

I have never used water and there is no milk products in the mix. I use coconut oil, so I don't see why you could not use olive oil.

rinse the entire thing out. Place straight distilled white vinegar into the unit. Run unit with only the distilled vinegar in it for a few hours that should clean it off good luck.

I am uncertain. We have used ours for years and years and always add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

It depends. Water steams thr food. So if ypu want that you need water. I fill it with olive oil. When hot that cooks the food , garlick, very nicely. I also clean it and put the cloves whole.

Save money and just use plain vinegar. I clean mine like this and it works great and is cheap! I've had my Kuerig for almost 2 years now and it works as good as new.

I just use vinegar and warm water. I tried to use Simple Green but it left smear marks on the floor.

While I didn't try - I would doubt it. It clogged with just olive oil, my guess it would clog with something thicker like salad dressing.

A minimal amount of soap with water works fine after each use, followed by rinses with hot water. If you go a couple of fills without cleaning it, then I would suggest using straight vinegar. The follow with a few rinses of hot water.

I read somewhere to use 50/50 vinegar and water, run it few a cycle or two. HTH

We use one of the electric stick mixers to blend vinegar, water, and dressing mix. Then while it's running add the oil slowly. Hope this helps.

Hi Kate, the ozonater is very easy to use, just attach the tubing to the machine and the other end to one of the provided stones, put the stone in the water you're ozonating and set the timer ( I usually set mine for 10 mins ). I have not used it for olive oil which is supposed to go for 24hrs ( I think ), but it is very easy to use. Plug and play so to speak. Hope this helped. Greg

apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar) rinse if you are using a natural soap product like a castile soap, bar soap, or baking soda....I would recommend looking online for mixes because there are variations

I have extremely hard well water and I use white vinegar, about a tablespoon full, fill to the max line with cold water, push the on switch, let it stop on its own. Then I dump the vinegar water down the drain for double duty and sanitation. Be sure to fill again to the max with just cold water then run the cycle again before you use the pot. I love my pot.
