How Do I Clean The Coffee Stains Out Of My Coffee Pot?

1 June 2009 in Coffee maker

My coffee pot is starting to look pretty bad. I thought about putting some lime cleaner in there, but I really don’t want to drink lime cleaner remants in my next cup of coffee. There must be some effective way to clean a coffee pot. Any suggestions?

  1. I usually run a pot of water and white vinegar to clean the coffee maker and run another pot with clear water and that takes care of the pot . For the carafe or pot it self I put some bleach, dish soap, and warm water, and I let it soak for half hour ,then rinse and it’s sparkly cleaned!

  3. Bleach works great.. just make sure you rinse and wash well after… Use straight bleach and don’t mix with water until your rinsing it..

  4. Use Dip-It for coffee pots.
    It smells great and is non toxic.
    You can find it with the coffee or in the cleaning supply section of the grocery store.
    It really does a nice job.

  7. fill with ice add a little water to make slushy add a small palm-full of salt, and swirl around for about a minute it’s abrasive enough to get out the stain without scratching the glass!!!

  9. white vinegar. run a pot thru 1/2 water 1/2 vinegar just like your going to make coffee just without any coffee. It works perfect.
    Edit: I thought you meant the coffee machine.
    For just the pot about a half cup of bleach with water. Let sit a few minutes and just rinse well.

  11. in Europe the recommendation for things like that is: use denture cleaner
    This really helps get rid of coffee or tea stains.
