How to Clean Glass Coffee Pots
No matter what type of coffee brew system you own, it’s important to properly clean your glass coffee pot after each use. This will help extend the life of the carafe and prevent any strange odors or tastes in future cups of coffee. Follow these steps to properly clean your glass coffee pot.
Gather Your Cleaning Supplies
You’ll need a few cleaning supplies to get started:
- Dish soap
- Soft sponge
- White vinegar
- Baking soda
- Microfiber cloth
Dishwashing the Carafe
Start by washing the carafe with dish soap and a soft sponge. Rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Repeat this process a few more times to ensure your coffee pot is as clean as possible. If there are any persistent stains left on the pot, try soaking it in a solution of warm water and white vinegar.
Cleaning with Baking Soda
Next, make a paste of baking soda and a bit of water. Rub the paste on the surface of the carafe to remove any residue. Use a soft cloth to spread the paste evenly. Let the paste sit for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse it off with warm water. After this step, your carafe should be clean and odor-free!
Polishing the Carafe
Finally, use a microfiber cloth to wipe down the carafe and make it sparkle. This will help to protect the glass surface from moisture and stains. Be sure to rinse off the cloth and wipe the carafe dry after polishing.
And there you have it! With these easy steps, you can keep your glass coffee pot clean and appliance-ready.
