How to clean the kitchen in 20 minutes — UK reset

Kitchen chaos is last night's dishes plus today's mail. A fixed 20-minute order wins.

Eight moves. Timer on.

  1. Bin and recycling out. Clear the counters' excuses first.
  2. Dishwasher on or sink empty. Hot soapy water if no dishwasher. No soaking overnight as a lifestyle.
  3. Wipe hob and counters. Spray, wipe, done. Not a deep scrub every night.
  4. Stovetop crumbs. Quick brush into the bin. Prevents morning despair.
  5. Floor spot sweep. Not mop. Sweep the traffic lane.
  6. Cloths and towels. Wet cloths hung. Dirty tea towels in laundry.
  7. Tomorrow's surface clear. One clear metre for breakfast. Non-negotiable.
  8. Sunday deep link. Sunday Reset Workbook covers the weekly kitchen deep clean.
