Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Garlic not fully pressed.	Too many cloves, or cloves are too large.	Reduce the number of cloves, or cut larger cloves into smaller pieces before pressing. Apply firm, even pressure.
Difficulty cleaning garlic residue.	Garlic residue dried in holes.	Clean immediately after use. Utilize the swing basket for easier access to the holes. Dishwasher cleaning is recommended for thoroughness. A small brush can help dislodge stubborn pieces.
