@ TK Gonna try your method tonight.
Have you tried? When cool remove the tray and basket. Set the basket in the tray. Add some dish soap and hot water. Forget about it until the next morning. Using a stiff brush clean the wire rack. Rinse and load in dishwasher.I'm sure the air fryer does a good job. But I would rather have a frying pan to clean than the tray and basket with the air fryer. In fact it is this very reason I seldom use my air fryer. Cleaning.
