Yes, tossing plain ice cubes into your garbage disposal is an excellent, safe DIY method to help clean and sharpen the grinding components. To do this properly, fill the grinding chamber with two cups of ice cubes, turn on a cold water faucet to a steady stream, flip the wall switch on, and let the disposal run until all the ice is completely crushed. The hard ice chunks knock away sticky food sludge and stubborn residue clinging to the shredder ring and impellers. Verification: Check that the grinding chamber smells fresher and water drains cleanly after flushing with cold water.
