How to Clean Coffee Stains on Your Glass Coffee Pot
Your glass coffee pot is one of your favorite pieces of kitchen equipment. However, it can accumulate coffee stains over time. Don’t despair – there are plenty of ways to get your glass coffee pot back to its sparkling clean! Here are a few tips to help you out:
Essentials for Cleaning Coffee Stains
- White Vinegar
- Baking Soda
- Dish Soap
- Soft Sponge
Step 1: Soaking the Pot
Fill the pot with hot water and white vinegar – the ratio should be one-third of a cup of vinegar for every quart of water. This will help break down the coffee stains and residue so they can be removed more easily.
Step 2: Scrubbing the Pot
Sprinkle a layer of baking soda onto the pot. Use the sponge to scrub the baking soda into the pot. This step should help remove any stubborn stains that were not broken down by the vinegar.
Step 3: Rinsing the Pot
Rinse the pot with hot water. Add a few drops of dish soap if needed. This should help get rid of any remaining grime, and also make the pot smell fresh.
Step 4: Drying the Pot
Dry the pot with a clean kitchen towel. Make sure you don’t leave any lint or dirt behind, which can make your pot look dirty again. You can also put the pot in the dishwasher if you prefer.
