Condensation Forming on Door - Countertop Microwave
Possible Solutions
Is condensation forming on your microwave door? Does the Microwave door look wavy?
High-moisture foods can create steam in the microwave, which will condense on the door and cavity, causing the door to look wavy. This is part of normal operation. Use a soft cloth or paper towel to wipe the moisture off. If moisture is noticed between the glass, allow the microwave door to stand open for approximately 15 minutes to accelerate the moisture dissipation.
Suggestions:
- Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time, and reduce spattering.
- Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is not available, wax paper, paper towels, or plastic wrap approved for microwave ovens may be used.
- Plastic wrap should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.
