If you want to use steam to clean something get a good amount of steam then bleed water into it. It should be very very wet steam basically spitting like hell from a hose. Worked for thirty years in a dairy and that was the way to get grease and anything else baked on blown off. If I remember correctly the boiler ran at about 150 pounds pressure, we'd open the water valve about half way then bleed in the steam. When the hose was jumping it was showtime!
