FAQs
What is a BioPod?
A BioPod is a concentrated, water-soluble sachet containing the active cleaning ingredients. You add it to water in a spray bottle to create your cleaning solution.
How long does the cleaning effect last?
The natural bacteria in the fermentation extract continue to work and keep surfaces clean for longer after the initial application, though the exact duration can vary based on usage and environment.
Is this product safe for use around food?
Yes, the Fat Buoy formula is pH neutral and planet and people safe. It is designed for use in kitchens and food preparation areas.
Can I use this on my oven interior?
While it is a powerful degreaser, it's best suited for general kitchen surfaces. For very heavy, baked-on oven grease, a specialized oven cleaner might be more effective, but Fat Buoy can help maintain a cleaner oven over time.
How should I store the BioPod before use?
Store the unopened BioPod in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
What size trigger bottle should I use?
The product is designed for use with a 500-750ml trigger spray bottle.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Yes, the product arrives in a recyclable cardboard box. The biopod itself is designed to dissolve.
Troubleshooting
Solution not dissolving completely
Ensure you are using warm water and shake the bottle vigorously for at least 30 seconds. If issues persist, try dissolving the powder in a small amount of warm water first before adding the rest.
Grease not fully removed on first wipe
For very heavy or baked-on grease, a second application or a bit of gentle scrubbing with a cloth or sponge may be necessary. The product is designed for ongoing maintenance and regular cleaning.
Spray nozzle not working
Check if the nozzle is clogged. Rinse the nozzle under warm water. Ensure the dip tube is properly submerged in the liquid.
