How do you unclog a kitchen sink drain with a garbage disposal?

Posted by admin
John asked:


I have a kitchen sink with a garbage disposal. The garbage disposal still works and spins around but it leaves about an inch of water behind. It is clogged with bread crumbs. I’ve already tried Drano-o, pouring boiling hot water, and the baking soda and vinegar method. Any ideas on how to best troubleshoot this? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer!!!

      The plug at the trap downstream from the machine wherever it cannot be clogged with bread crumbs second you must use enough force.
      The plug at the disposer remove it cannot be at the drain [plug the plug at the drain if there is it is.
