How to Clean a Glass Coffee Carafe
A glass coffee carafe is a great way to enjoy your morning cup of coffee, but it can also become dirty and stained with regular use. Keeping your carafe clean is important for both aesthetic and health reasons. Here are some tips for how to get your carafe sparkling clean.
What You’ll Need
- White vinegar
- Baking soda
- Cotton cloth
- Sponge
Instructions
- Fill the carafe with an equal mixture of white vinegar and water, about halfway. Swirl it around to evenly spread the vinegar before pouring out the liquid.
- Sprinkle a teaspoon of baking soda into the carafe. Swish it around with your hand to help it integrate into the walls of the carafe.
- Fill the carafe all the way with warm water. Let sit for five minutes, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the baking soda.
- Empty the carafe and scrub it with a cotton cloth. Rinse the glass and cloth often to ensure thorough cleaning.
- Rinse the carafe one more time. Then use a sponge to scrub away any remaining tough stains, rinsing the sponge as needed.
- Enjoy your clean and streak-free carafe. Empy it and let it air-dry before making your next cup of coffee.
By following these steps, your carafe will be restored to its sparkling clean state. Not only will your coffee carafe look better, but it will also provide you with a fresh and pure-tasting cup every time.
