Got a grungy coffee pot? Fill it 1/4 way with crushed ice and swirl it around against the glass. I will scrape off all of the cooked-on coffee stains!

Putting Ice in a caraffe will help, but the best way to quickly “scrub” the caraffe or pot stained with coffee is to place salt in with the ice. Place several pieces of ice and lots of salt in the pot or caraffe and swish it around, the abrasiveness of the salt quickens the cleaning and helps remove the odor as well.

Fill the coffee pot with water and about 1/2 cup of plain viniger. Start the brewing process with the water and viniger mixture. your coffee pot will be fresh and clean for your next cup of coffee.

Use vinegar and a little water , run through pot to clean inners then put in dishwasher or use s.o.s. pads to clean tough stains before washing. Be sure to run coffee through and dump out before drinking next pot.

I use a denture cleaner, number of tablets depending on how long since the last cleaning. I usually allow it to sit overnight with the solution in the pot.
Fill with full strength viniger and let sit overnight. Start coffee machine. Run it twice with fresh water to get the taste out before brewing coffee. Works really well.

To clean the machine i run vinegar through once, then a pot of clean water, when that is done i wipe off the residue under the top and clean the machine on the outside. For the carafe I use bleach and dish washing liquid, fill the pot with water, some bleach and let the pot and the basket soak like this for say an hour, rinse really well and clean as new…. that old swirling the ice and salt thing, doesn’t work all that great…. used this trick when working at a gas station… no one knew i used bleach because you rinse so well there is no taste or smell left behind.
I scrub glassware, such as coffeepots, with baking soda. Just dump a little in, add a bit of water, and scrub with a soft cloth or teflon-safe scrubby pad. It takes stains off any kind of glassware or china.

the best way to clean a coffee pot is to fill it up with hot water and add a half cup of bleach let it sit for just a minute and rinse well now its cleaned and sanitized
