I run white vinegar threw my coffe maker and then wash my pot with hot soapy dish water………Put a filter in the basket just like you where going to make coffee and then cycle that vinegar threw there and wash that pot, you are done

Clean the coffee maker by adding about 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the water, and run the maker through a cycle without any coffee.

Dump that water, and then add clean water, and run the coffee maker through another cycle. BTW – This should be done about once a month… more if you use it a lot, and the water in your area is “hard”

As for the coffee pot. I clean mine in the dish washer on the top rack. You can also buy comically available coffee pot and coffee maker cleaners.

Check in your super market in the cleaning supplies. Or check in a restaurant supply company.

The next time your “guy” runs coffee through your coffee maker, throw him out!

Try denture cleanser, soak overnight then rinse very well. Great for stained decanters, jugs etc, as well.

vinegar and lemon juice are great cleansers

Mix water and vinegar. Points yay points!

Soak in Hot water and little bit dish soap. Then clean with a new sponge and rinse off with cold water until no soap residue left! Dont towel dry- it will look clean and crystal clear!

vinegar and water works well…just make sure you run your machine with plain clear water several times before making coffee with it again. Vinegar and water on washing the pot itself works well also. Salt water also works well in the pot too!

bleach water

Put a paper filter in the filter basket, and fill the coffee pot up with white vinegar. Pour the vinegar into the water resevior, and start the brewing process. When the coffee pot is half-filled with heated vinegar, shut off the coffee maker and let it sit for about an hour. Come back, and finish the brewing cycle. Dump the heated vinegar down the drain, and run 2 or 3 pots of clean, fresh water through the brewing cycle — be sure to use fresh, cold water for each brewing cycle or you could burn out the heater in the water reservior. Vinegar is mildly acidic, and it should remove any hard water deposits or other nastiness from the insides of your coffee maker.

Run a couple cups of vinegar with the rest water through the coffee maker…then just run water through it. the pot itself can be cleaned with lemon juice and salt…shake it up. the wash as you normaly would

I used to manage a restaurant and these worked great. Many compliment on the freshness of the coffee. Nothing like a good cup of Jo
