How do I clean the coffee stains out of my coffee pot?
Renegade asked:
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?

How do you remove a large coffee stain from cement?
Meg P. asked:
We were sitting outside on the patio and had a coffee cup on the arm of a chair. The cup fell and the coffee spilt. The coffee wasn’t promptly cleaned up and needless to say, left a nice stain. Do you know of any products or what we can do to remove a coffee stain from cement?

How do you remove the coffee taste from a travel mug?
Kat T asked:
I have several travel mugs that I often fill with coffee and take with me in the car. The problem is that the cups quickly absorbed the taste of the coffee. Now if I put any other beverage, like tea, in the mugs all I can taste is stale coffee. I do wash my dishes very well with soap and water, so that is not the problem. It is just that the coffee is so strong I guess? Anyway, Can anyone please tell me how to remove this stale coffee taste from my travel mug?

How do I clean my coffee carafe?
groovygirl asked:
So, I’ve clearly been bad about cleaning my coffee maker regularly and not letting coffee sit inside for hours on end. Now I have a coating of dark, brown, hard, coffee residue on the bottom of the carafe. Problem is the carafe is designed so there is just a 2″ diameter hole on the top – not big enough to stick my hand in and scrub. It’s soaking in vinegar now, but I’m not seeing much progress. Any suggestions? Thanks!
