How to Clean a Burned Glass Coffee Pot
If you have a glass coffee pot that has become burned or grimy over time, it can be hard to get it perfectly clean again. Luckily, there are a few methods that can help you restore a burned glass coffee pot to its original glory.
What you need:
- White vinegar
- Baking soda
- Sponge
- Plastic scrub brush
Step 1: Create a Vinegar and Baking Soda Paste
Start by mixing equal parts white vinegar and baking soda in a container that is not aluminum. Stir the mixture together until it has the consistency of paste.
Step 2: Spread the Paste
Using the paste, liberally spread it throughout the inside of the coffee pot. Ensure that you get the paste into all of the burnt or grimy areas. Let it sit for a few minutes.
Step 3: Scrub with a Sponge and Brush
Using a sponge and plastic scrub brush, start to scrub away the paste. Make sure to pay extra attention to the dirtiest areas. Continue to scrub until all of the paste has been removed.
Step 4: Rinse the Pot Thoroughly
Finally, rinse the coffee pot thoroughly with warm water. You will want to ensure that no traces of paste are left behind as these can cause off tastes in coffee.
Conclusion:
Cleaning a burned glass coffee pot can be a time consuming task, but with these steps can be restored to its former glory. Be sure to use the paste liberally and rinse it out well to ensure that the coffee you make has the best possible taste.
