How to Clean the Inside of a Glass Coffee Pot
A glass coffee pot is an essential kitchen item for all households that love a good cup of coffee. But with everyday use, the inside of the pot can get dirty. Keeping your pot clean is important to make sure you’re drinking the best-tasting coffee. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to keep the inside of your glass coffee pot sparkling clean:
Step 1: Gather Supplies
You will need some basic supplies to get started on cleaning your glass coffee pot:
- White distilled vinegar: Vinegar is an all-natural cleaner with disinfectant properties that can help to eliminate bacteria and build up within your coffee pot.
- Baking soda: This can help to neutralize odors and remove stubborn stains that have built up within the glass.
- Dish soap: This helps to remove any additional residue left in your glass pot.
- Soft cleaning cloth: You will need a soft cleaning cloth to wipe away any soap or vinegar solutions.
Step 2: Clean the Coffee Pot
Once you have your supplies gathered, it’s time to start cleaning your coffee pot:
- Fill your coffee pot with 1 part white distilled vinegar and 1 part water. Swirl the mixture around the pot to help remove buildup.
- Let the mixture sit in your coffee pot for 20 minutes.
- Dump the vinegar and water mixture and fill the coffee pot with hot water and 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Swirl the mixture around the pot, letting it sit for 10 minutes.
- If there are any stubborn stains, make a paste using baking soda and water and apply it to the inside of the coffee pot. Allow the paste to sit for 10 minutes and then scrub gently with a soft cleaning cloth.
- Once the inside of the coffee pot is clean, rinse it with hot water. Then add a few drops of liquid dish soap and a few drops of white distilled vinegar to the hot water and swirl the pot to remove any remaining residue.
- Rinse the coffee pot with hot water to remove the soapy mixture.
- Finally, dry any excess water with a soft cleaning cloth.
